The detachable divider is annoying because things that I put in the front of the bag slide under it and end up in the back of the bag. I only like the permanent divider.

Plus the detachable divider is very easily detachable so I don't feel that it is a safer place to keep my valuables as I did with the fixed one.

I have a celine orlov which is just perfect for dividing your belonging up - great shopper - my alternative to a Mulberry Bays - so organised. Sorry know its not a BE but thought I would mention it.

The WTM is great for organisation (now that the side pocket has more depth for a Blackberry), cause there isn;t much width and nothing slops about!

Thanks for this suggestion. I"ll look into it.

Your absolutely right about the width and that's probably why I love my WTM's. There's not enough depth for things to get lost. Great concept for a handbag!

Jenova, your absolutely right about this. I've found my divider would just flop about and it wasn't serving any purpose except to annoy.

I do like the suggestion for a purse organizer for those that like them. I just prefer my handbag to have the interior organization already built in if that makes sense.

I'm just the opposite with the divider ... I couldn't get used to using the non-detachable divider. It always seemed like it was in the way to me. That's the reason I sold an LM Midi that had the non-detachable divider ... it just drove me nuts! I'm used to having little "pouches" in my bag for different things so that's how I keep organized. The detachable dividers I would just take out and set aside. Although I do love having the pockets on the side of the bag built in! I think more of those would be fab!

I totally agree...I like the detachable one better than the sewn in one or that secret pocket. I keep stuff for the kids in mine and snap it in and out as needed. If I'm rushing and switch bags, I'll just toss the pouch into the next bag I'm switching to. It's a great solution if you have little ones! :)

Oh and my faves are my large black pebbled glossy hug me-I call it my chicken soup bag because it's comfort in a bag! It's all warm and smooshy...I also love that it looks brand new despite the fact that I use it for the zoo and park along with going out shopping or to dinner. It fits everything and is totally the best bag for travel in my opinion. :)

My other fave is my taupe LM. It's my fave more for the leather than the style...it's the perfect grey for me and goes with everything I wear. I love it mostly because it's sooooo supple and buttery. It came from BE really soft and smooshy but after some use and two applications of LMB pro treatment, it's the most supple thing ever. I love it to pieces though I'm not usually into the matte look and grey is a new thing for me. :)

I'm not a divider person at all. They drive me bonkers.

I have lotts of little pouches that can double as little clutches if needed.

sandysandiego · Sep 16th, 2009, 09:12 PM

I too am not a fan of the permanent divider! I am really a tote girl so the detachable dividers are best for me!

I am still loving the Love Me Midi w/ 2 zips but have been fantasizing about a Rock Me Midi. Maybe for Christmas

Either Cream Pebbled or Shark???

I seem to have trouble with the dividers. I think one of my favorite bags is my dark grey LM midi because it's just the perfect all around bag. The color is amazing and goes with everything and the crossbody strap works really well; I also love the straps. I also really love my petrol MMS midi. It's a great all around bag and the color is heavenly. Ditto with the choco crash but I haven't had the chance to use it yet as the weather is still quite warm here.

I guess I grativate toward bags that can work in several different situations.
