Thirty-One

I am not a huge purse person.  I have gotten used to hanging a diaper bag on my shoulder and going.  Even so, these bags caught my eye.  The skirt purses are pretty cool.  I don’t need a ton of purses, but occasionally wish I had something to go with a certain outfit when I go out without kids (rare).  This purse offers me that option without the bulk.  I have a simple black purse and add a skirt to vary its look.  The skirt is basically a fabric sleeve that clips on to the purse.  No need to move my wallet, etc to a new bag, just change the skirt and go.

Before seeing the skirt purse, however, I noticed the large utility tote.  I tend to wait to do my grocery shopping until I need to really stock up.  I’m talking cans upon cans of crushed tomatoes, pounds of pasta, gallons of milk, etc.  These totes are great for that!  Now I can fit 3-4 grocery bags worth into one tote.  Are they heavy – well, duh.  Depending on how much I put in, they can be quite hefty, however one tote vs 4 bags is a lot easier for me to handle.  Especially since I usually have at least one child in my arms as I’m trying to bring the groceries in from the car.  We also recently used it as a makeshift dresser for the kids.  We stayed over at my grandmother’s home and needed a place to put the kids clothes.  They each had their stack inside the tote.  Nice and neat in a row. 

I love these totes!
