Prada Tessuto nylon bag. It was a square shape tote with top zip and short handles.
3)How many purses do you have in your collection?
63. I have a really hard time letting go of my purses and I'm holding onto stuff that I've owned since college (I know I know, time to let go). Also, my collection is a mix of premier and contemporary, as well as small amount of vintage pieces and newer pieces.
4)How many accessories (wallets..etc)?
I am not too big on wallets and don't tend to rotate them out as much as I do with my purses; so I don't have too many. Also, my wallets need to do all the work for me (all my cash, coins, cards, etc) so if I find one that works, I stick with it. Righ now, I'm using my vintage Gucci continental, but before that it was a great LAMB envelope wallet
