Is there a place for your mid-2000s shoulder bags?

You know, the ones with the 9" strap drops and enough room to fit a flip phone and two $1 bills...

I have so many Coach Demi bags and Louis Vuitton pochettes and I just can't stand having to always readjust them on my shoulder! But I love their designs since they were the bags I first fell in love with when I started loving bags...you never forget your first love

They're usually detachable at one end of the strap but not the other. Has anyone tried to add a longer strap drop? Or lengthened the strap drop somehow? I'm spoiled by the satchels that are in nowadays with their 50" crossbody straps as well as straps for hooking onto your arm.

That's not a style I ever loved BUT in poking around on the forums for info on a replacement chain for one of my bags, one of the lovely TPFr's referred me to info on this thread "The Pochette Club".

I was wowed by how some ladies are adding longer chains / straps and making these bags fresh by turning them into wallets on a chain. This is a long thread but probably worth you taking a look at this and other style options. Enjoy!
