>1. found a new purse after much shopping. it's very hard for me to find an acceptable purse. this one is 'me' enough that I'll use it, but a little bit of a push fashion-wise. Just what I wanted. I'm expanding my boundaries.

You must be my pocketbook soulmate. Maybe we can shop together sometime?

It is very hard for me to find a purse I like for everyday use. I just bought one not too long ago because my old one was getting raggedy and because I decided I needed to get something in a lighter color (not black) for summer. I'm feeling 'OK' about the purse, but it's got 'issues'. I am very demanding--there are a lot of features I want in a purse:

1. not too big, not too small--big enough for my stuff but small enough to fit into a tote bag if needed.
2. long enough strap to fit comfortably over my shoulder (I'm a 'woman of size'). In winter, it has to be able to fit comfortably over my winter coat shoulder.
3. non-slippery strap so it stays on my shoulder
4. differentiated compartments that are also easy to access quickly--this is actually a tough combo to find. But I don't necessarily want the wallet/checkbook type of annex that are on a lot of purses.
5. lightweight
6. not leather--this eliminates a lot of contenders!
7. not too expensive (well, at least this is compatible with criteria #6 most of the time).
8. Attractive.
9. Not too overly trendy--no glitzy add add-on decorations, etc.

So, you can see that this would make it difficult to find the right purse.

So, congratulations on finding one, Tab!!
