I got a new purse

I've carried a Wilson leather purse on and off for over 10 years. Got it in a box of purses for $2. The whole box. It's showing its age. I love the size, the way it's sectioned and if I use a different bag, I'm always glad to go back to it.
I stopped in the the local thrift store today and got a black leather Scarlett Blake hobo bag for $7. It's in really good shape. I might be in love

I feel like I did. I have never enjoyed buying purses or shoes. I've looked a couple of times when I was out this summer, no luck. I stopped in there for something else, and saw they had a good selection of purses. Their prices have increased, and this purse was a better deal than buying a new purse made of synthetics.
