New Purse - DKNY leopard print

Hello!

Hope everyone is well :) And wishing those of you who celebrate it a Happy St Patrick's Day!

The other week the family went to Bicester Village, which is a outlet shopping place in Bicester, Oxfordshire.

It was absolutely freezing (it was snowing and I was not dressed for snow). And my dad was there so I didn't go too crazy but think I'll need to make another trip for a proper look around.

One of the things I got and was worth the cold was my new purse.

Apart from when I was very young, I've always had a Louis Vuitton purse and I think because of that it's been difficult for me to find a new purse I like because I guess, once you've had an LV why would you want anything else? (Thanks mum for making my life so hard haha!!!). But saying that I've had the same 4 purses for the last decade and I have been wanting something else. And hello hello new purse!

It's a black leather DKNY purse with a hairy leopard print flap. 8 card slots on the inside and a mid coin zipped bit. And a detachable chain. And....it was rrp £115 and I got it for £25. Yes sir.

So pros and cons?

Pros: it was a bloody bargain and it's got some leopard print going on.

Cons: I don't like the flap style purse, I miss using a zip around. Also, because of this its a smaller size than I am used to. I am not a fan of DKNY but the logo is relatively small.

What: when I was in the shop I found the chain extremely amusing (I dunno) but in real life I have no idea why it's there. Would you seriously carry the purse as a tiny handbag?

So? I'm happy with my new purse :)

On the search for...a hard case purse

ASOS | ASOS Red Patent Hard Case Purse at ASOS

***Click link above for a visual aid!***

I need a new purse for my new Zara bag. And I thought that a hard case purse would be a good idea. I don't necessarily need a small purse; what I need is a thin purse and this fits the bill right?

What do you think of the colour ? Asos have a few colour ways; full price options are £16 and the sale options are £8 which is reasonable since I really really want one!

[Edit: I just searched 'hard case purse' on ebay and price wise the asos sale and full price are good prices. However, one of the ebay listings also handily gave the dimensions so I took my tape measure to my purse* and it's the bloody same size!!! (Not sure about depth but my purse is quite thin already.....what to do what to do]

*I usually use the Louis Vuitton zippy purse but that obviously is toooo big so I switched to the Sarah (plain) and it's a better fit but not perfect.

Conclusion? I will stick with the Sarah. SInce the dimensions are so close it's not worth buying a new purse for one bloody bag. And plus, I'm saving for a LV card holder. Cos I'm sad like that!
