Fraying stitches and weak chain links... Oy vey.

This could have been a great bag for me... but I can't afford to take a chance because I like to really use my bags.

There is a lady braid satchel just like last year.It comes in black and blue. I'm not sure if there are other colors.
Lady braid is also available in that tote and the flap. Different stores ordered different styles and different colors.

Roey,
Absolutely fabulous photos. Thank you so much.
So what are you ordering????
Is it my monitor or is that expandable flap GREEN?
If you examined the expandable tote, is it a pain to get in and out of? It looks a bit like it has a drawstring on the sides and I just can't/won't deal with drawstrings.

That Expandable tote is beautiful...but I have OD'd on GSTs and don't need another tote, no matter how pretty. The chains do look a bit tiny for a tote that ladies tend to put a lot in.


Thanks for the great pictures!!!
