I have been trying to find a concealed carry purse that isn't ugly and is big enough to put all my stuff in, but not huge.  This is just perfect - lots of pockets and compartments, it's easy to fit my weapon in and I feel like it would be very easy to access my pistol in an emergency.  The Dark Pewter is dressy enough for when we go out but not too dressy (I hate changing purses).  This is a great concealed carry purse!!!!
