My purse got maimed! It's not a designer purse or anything extremely special, but I loved it because it was nice and big so that I could carry just about anything I needed. It had pockets so that my wallet, receipt bag, mp3 player, cellphone, and psp, wouldn't mix with lip gloss, tarot cards, hand lotion, and oil-removing face sheets, which wouldn't mix with "feminine products" thus eliminating the possibility of pulling out a tampon along with my wallet. It's black patchwork leather, kind of messenger-style/grandma bag, with big silver rings to attatch the strap to the bag.

The maiming came in the form of a piece of stage equipment catching on it and tearing a large hole in the back. The foam batting is coming out and I'm just wondering whether I should try and fix it or just get a new one.
 
oh no! sorry to hear that! i'm not sure if that's fixable. i say get a new one. not possible to buy the same bag?
I don't know. I got this one about a year ago so it's kind of dubious whether I can find the same bag or not.



wow! someone has me pegged!
this is an awesome bag.
...but working at my job since the holiday I haven't made enough to pay for it.

I think its time for shopping!
If you can't get one that you like with lots of internal pockets, maybe you can get the purseket or improvise by having a few small cosmetics pouches with zips. That way you know which one your key or the feminine products goes into. I do that to my bags too so it saves time digging.
