Handbag MondayI've been meaning to show this one off for a long time. Many years ago, Handsome and I took the boys on a cruise around Hawaii. (FYI-with cruises you don't have to unpack. Feed you. Make friends. Have lots of stops and entertainment.) I began noticing these adorable handbags and since that is what I prefer to buy when traveling, I went hunting for the perfect specimen.
Alas, it was harder than I thought. All the cruise stuff didn't allow me to shop at roadside stands until one day, and I found this...
The man and woman I bought this from said it was from the Phillipines and all of his were handmade by his wife's family. Everything about it said "Vicki!"
Inside is a drawstring cloth bag sewn into the handbag to hold valuables. I don't really use that as I carry this one on special occasions. I've already glued one place back.
But it is perfect for summer. So I'll carry it for a few days and bask in my fun treasure.
Do you have a perfect summer bag?
