I got one!

I may have mentioned a time or two on this blog that I could really use/want a new purse. I really like the 1154 Lill Studio purses. They have many great designs, I was debating between the Ally and Lucy. (yes, I did design those two) And many wonderful fabrics to choose from. I actually liked so many of them that I was having a difficult time deciding what fabrics to use. (difficult time deciding? Kristi? really?) I was having a lot of fun designing my own purse. One thing I didn't like about these purses was the price.

Well I found a great one on eBay! It is the Ally design, which I was thinking about and it is classic, black and ivory with a little bit of tan. It was listed as "new with tags". I won it. It arrived in the mail for me yesterday. I really like it! And I only payed about a third of what I would have had I designed it myself on the website. Had I designed it myself, I might not have chosen this particular fabric, though I do really like it. I was going for something that had more browns in it.

It is a great size. I was able to fit all my essentials (wallet, keys, phone, kleenex, chapstick, lotion) as well as a diaper, wipes and small lap/changing pad for Carson if needed.


Here is a picture of the inside. It is pink with a black slip pocket. Really cute.

I know part of the fun of having a Lill purse is that you design it yourself but I love that I got a great purse at a great price even more. If you like this, check out this other Ally purse on eBay. It is red and black. (I'm not into red, it clashes with my hair. :)

I love it too! But I must admit that I've never heard of "Lil" bags before. I must be out of touch with fashion...

I first heard of them when our friend Lynn had a Lill purse party a few years ago. I couldn't go to the party but really liked what the other ladies bought.

I really like it! I'm like you in that it's really hard for me to make a decision.
