Another purse discussion

It's the week before Labor Day so I'm wearing  as much white as I can, because, well, you know the rule... 
I guess there are no fashion rules anymore so it's probably going to be fashionable to have rules again one of these days.
Actually my mother in law came to visit us a few weeks ago and we got to talking fashion.  She mentioned this neat sounding white leather bag she'd bought but couldn't use because of her shoulder injury.  She described it as having a big ruffled flower on the front.  We all know that ruffles are big right now.  I told her it was too bad I didn't live closer so I could take it off her hands - or in this case shoulder - and add it to my never-quite-enough-but-we-all-know-too-many purse collection.

A week or so after she left I got a package from Doug...

and I now own this great summer bag!

Which I feel I should use until Labor Day...

This morning's dribble is brought to you by yet another great idea for making this out of that...
