I am a confrimed purse junkie. With over 75 bags, I do realize that I have an addiction but I am alway son the hunt for the next perfect bag.
Any suggestions (links and pics are good) for a travel purse?
Must be able to hold passport, camera, wallet,tickets, keys, and chapstick while being comfoRtable and stylish!

I have the mini and the regular size hipster and while I like them, I want something different.

I know I am difficult :)

I bought this bag for my trip to Prague and LOVE it! I have used it alot since then, too. It's just so handy.

I must be missing a chick gene for purses; but man, do I have it for shoes! I'll just have Pete carry my lipstick, if I am wearing any, in his jacket. Skip the purse...I like to walk without the baggage. In my shoes. Nice shoes.

Seriously, if not for the shoes, we could probably go carry-on only to STJ. Maybe because I'm only 5'2" on a good day and love high heels, I like my shoes to match my "outfit" (even if it's just capris with a tank top). I like shoes that tie at the ankle, for shorts and skirts. I like a higher heel for my sundresses.

Do I sound like Ms. Sarah Palin? Whooooo-ieee, I'm not. I just like my shoes.

I used to be a shoe junkie, too. Actually I still am, but I can only LOOK at heels any more. Bad knees, no cartilege, probably brought on by wearing heels every day of my adult working life. Even when I had my own business and wore jeans to work, I still wore my heels.

But, that was in the 80's when we also wore unstructured jackets with the sleeves rolled up and colored t-shirts. Ah yes, the Sonny Crockett look! I have to admit I'm still partial to a lot of the clothing styles from the 80's. I believe that's the last decade anyone ever got dressed up! LOL!

Oh, sorry X, this is a purse thread, isn't it! I only have 2 purses. One for winter, one for spring. I'm boring that way.
:lol:

I love LV Bags. I am sure that you can sell them on Ebay and make a nice profit, or you could just send them to me..... :lol:
