I love purple and wear a lot of purple clothing, so I love that I have found a purple purse that also has so many other good features:  it's roomy, has plenty of zipper pockets for organizing stuff; nice wide strap keeps it on my shoulder, plus strap (which is adjustable) is long enough to wear cross-shoulder. It appears to be quite sturdy.  And it's rain-resistent.  I plan on using this purse on a trip to Europe next month.  I found shoes to match it from Lands End.
