But I personally would probably use it as a clutch. Nice find. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132920 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 18:38:43 +0000 Sylvie 1132920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a red patent clutch with about the same form factor and I find it invaluable for dressy outings.&nbsp; I mostly use it with the wrist loop.</p> <p>Better to have one perfect bag than ten imperfect bags.&nbsp; I think you should get it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132899 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 18:12:29 +0000 viva 1132899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After Mo's pics, I think I need one too. It feels like the perfect vacation bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132826 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:37:56 +0000 catgirl 1132826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, those visuals are hugely helpful! This bag is just a bit bigger than that but the same idea and similar color.</p> <p>Ok Suz and K.P., I am convinced. Hopefully it is still there today!</p> <p>See, bags are not one of my weaknesses, so It is harder for me to spend on one even when it is a need AND even when I adore it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132823 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:35:31 +0000 Lisa 1132823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great bag, I think you should go for it if you really love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132821 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:33:48 +0000 Suz 1132821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, just buy it already!!! </p> <p>:) &nbsp;:)</p> <p>It's a fabulous bag for you and a typical price.&nbsp;</p> <p>BTW, I have one clutch with wrist strap (and cross body strap if desired) and I <b>LOVE </b>it. Super useful to have that wristlet thingie when you are juggling a cocktail. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132816 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:30:58 +0000 K. Period. 1132816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Um Una, are you&nbsp;<i>SERIOUSLY&nbsp;</i>still on the fence about this? Because that bag is very perfectly you and I can't see how you could possibly still be undecided. &nbsp;Not to be pushy, but get that bag!!! &nbsp;</p> <p>FWIW,&nbsp;I have a couple of convertible clutches and I love them. I use them all the time as my go to bag when I am out with my little ones because I can use the wristlet option. &nbsp;I find it much more convenient than having a cross body flopping around and much less conspicuous than having the cross body divide my chest, highlighting my great ahem tracts of land. &nbsp;But when I want the cross body option, I have it. &nbsp;So win-win. &nbsp;</p> <p>The price is within a pretty typical range for a good leather bag. &nbsp;If you have few bags, then it is good to get as much variety as you possibly can out of them. &nbsp;This one is great because it gives you a lot of variety, it has a lot of presence and it seems very very you. &nbsp;(Haven't you had a couple of clothing DIY&nbsp;projects getting this same type of style?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132812 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:28:11 +0000 Mo 1132812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On vacation, I find the pewter one indispensable. &nbsp;Over shoulder, cross body, clutch. &nbsp;I use it all ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132805 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:21:55 +0000 catgirl 1132805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susie and others, do you find convertible clutches to be awkward? In other words are they neither here nor there in trying to be versatile? This one looked very natural all ways but I wonder about that issue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132800 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:20:08 +0000 Susie 1132800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, I think this is a fabulous bag for you. I love it. I have added a number of clutches to my bag collection and I am really enjoying them. There is just something about a clutch that elevates an outfit and if it's convertible for practicality, so much the better. </p> <p>The price is a bit steep but not outrageous at all for a nice bag and&nbsp;I think it is well worth it for you. Please get it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me/page/2#post-1132787 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:09:15 +0000 catgirl 1132787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, it's the aptly named Hammitt "I Love You" bag. The link works for me so not sure what's up? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132781 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:07:26 +0000 catgirl 1132781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Mo! This bag fits my mini iPad but is not much bigger. It has some amazing pockets. What I need and don't have is a cross-body so I don't have to hold handles in my cold mittened hands or struggle to keep a strap on the shoulder of a bulky coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132777 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:03:58 +0000 Mia 1132777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been looking for the do all clutch for two years.

What's the size range? What I like about this is that it's not too big for me (the one I sent Janet just overwhelmed me, sadly). But it needs to be big enough to be useful too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132741 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 15:40:41 +0000 Mo 1132741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it for you (and maybe for me ;)). &nbsp;I have 2 convertible type bags like this, only smaller, and I love that it can be a clutch one moment, a crossbody the next, etc. &nbsp;Very useful, especially when travelling and not carrying absolutely everything including the kitchen sink out with you for a night on the town. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132739 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 15:37:08 +0000 catgirl 1132739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>jamieyh, that's a lovely, classic bag but it is not me at all. I have become super-picky about adding bags to my closet because I am NOT a bag lady and rarely switch out bags. What I'm looking for has to fulfilll a fairly specific need.</p> <p>Enablers, expect me to return the favor! I will go back and look at it again with comments in mind and see if I can come up with any other thoughts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132735 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 15:33:12 +0000 ironkurtin 1132735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the texture on that bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132632 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 13:39:27 +0000 Janet 1132632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a bad one for enabling a clutch purchase, since I have acquired quite a collection in the last year, but I am using them a lot. </p> <p>This one looks very YOU, and with the flexibility you describe, plus all the endorsements of the quality, I think you should get it. How's that for enabling? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132620 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 13:26:09 +0000 Elizabeth P 1132620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, but that has your name written all over it... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132615 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 13:12:48 +0000 viva 1132615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking exactly what Deborah said: It just seems so you, Una.

I wish I could see the different "modes," but I definitely trust your judgement having seen it in person for yourself.&nbsp;</p> <p>PS - OMG, to quote Mo, you are pulling me down the "rabbit hole" in a big way with all these cool products tonight! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-this-bag-is-killing-me#post-1132421 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 05:10:41 +0000 CocoLion 1132421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Get it. </p> <p>(I think "here" is LA.)</p>
