Why?
Even though I like the first bag more in look - it is very small and impractical for the use I have in mind. Since I plan to use it for everyday I picked the larger hobo style.
The sale price of the hobo turned out to be a plus.
I plan – God willing - to have this fringed bag for a long time so I picked a pretty classic make of it -
Sometimes decisions like this are very hard and we all have made costly misjudgments so it pays to really think it through.
I also considered this bag - but because it was not real leather (read the description carefully) and because a fringe bag already has great potential for the tacky factor - I paid a little more for a definitive classic leather version from a reputable brand.
Hopefully it will become part of my wardrobe for life and it will become more beautiful as it ages.
I will just have to keep the kitten away from it. : |

The kitten went to the vet today for his second set of jabs and doggie came along for the ride :) thus the doggie tote – all his goodies are in there :)
Kitten is still mad at us.
This is my favorite tee shirt because the girl looks a little like me and the guy looks a little like my husband.
