A roomy leather tote
Color: Coffee, Color: Coffee
Firstly, the color of this bag was something I’ve been looking for awhile. I like that it’s structured and is just the right size to carry a lot of items without being too big. I was also impressed with the amount of pockets. I was going to buy a Portland Leather bag but learned they are unlined. Well this has lining. The stitching looks pretty decent, too. If you are looking to buy a leather bag for a good price, I’d pick one up now before tariffs kick in on leather goods!

Very Nice For The Price
Color: Nude
I wanted a plain neutral colored clutch purse to carry at a wedding. This was one is inexpensive, but does not look cheap. It will easily hold a lipstick, compact, small hair rush, and my phone. It comes with detachable chain that you can use if you want to, but I think it looks more dressy without it. I am sure this will suit your needs if you want a decent clutch purse that doesn't cost a lot of money.

Cute dressy purse for special occasion
Color: Black, Color: Black
I bought this so I could have a dressy small evening out purse. It’s a stiff, molded shaped purse and looks great as part of the entire outfit. It comes with two dressy little gold and silver chain shoulder straps to match either one with your clothing or jewelry. Perfect size for carrying powder, lipstick, mirror, pen, a small hairbrush. There is a small, tight little pocket inside to hold a credit card, and some cash. It was the perfect purse for my needs.
