One of my blogging friends,
Jenni,
always has rad giveaways. She works for
Tai Pan Trading, a Utah-based wholesale home decor store (which has the awesomest stuff, btw) so she frequently features new items in stock & gives them away. Two weeks ago I won one of her giveaways & scored this incredibly sweet bow bag:

My old purse was starting to look really ratty when I won this purse; the timing couldn't have been better.

I love how small this purse is while still fitting everything I need: wallet, keys, phone, business cards, pens, usb drive &
poopy clutch. I also love that it has two detachable handles, a drop handle & a messenger bag-style handle. The messenger bag handle is perfect while riding my bike & wrangling Penelope. This purse normally retails for about $29.99. Not bad, right? I'm used to spending about $30 (give or take) for a purse. What about you?
Head over to your local
Tai Pan Trading to drool over and buy their many wonderful purses. If you're not near one (sucks to be you), you might want to try these alternates online:
Bow Bags
Watermelon Bags
Let me know if you find any other bags on the internets that are worth adding to the list!
