				<description>&#060;p&#062;That's beautiful. The shape and size remind me of my old Lauren shopper bag -- perfect for me as well. I'm going to check her out. I love a structured bag but many are too small for me or too large.&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;My sister had a tote bag that she loved and wore out. She searched long and hard, but could not find another one that was in the exact same size specifications that had been perfect on her 5'4&#034; height. She met a friend of our Mom's last winter on a visit to FL, and learned that Frankie&#038;nbsp; makes handbags and other items. Frankie offered to make a bag to the exact measurements. It is made out of cork with metallic flecks, and trimmed in grey leather.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I loved it so I ordered a similar one in plain cork, with navy leather and silver hardware. It arrived yesterday, and it is beautiful! The cork is very smooth, and the bag is a perfect fit for me too. I haven't had time to try it with some outfits, but I wanted to post the photos that Frankie put up on her Etsy site. This is my exact bag:&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;a rel=&#034;nofollow&#034; href=&#034;https://www.etsy.com/GRANDhandbags/listing/849090655/the-lauren-made-with-natural-cork?utm_campaign=Share&#038;amp;utm_medium=social_organic&#038;amp;utm_source=MSMT&#038;amp;utm_term=so.smt&#038;amp;share_time=1596491907000&#034;&#062;https://www.etsy.com/GRANDhand.....6491907000&#060;/a&#062;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Frankie started by just making items for her friends and family. They encouraged her to start a business, and she decided to donate all of her proceeds to a different charity or nonprofit organization each quarter. This quarter the beneficiary is my sister's after school program for middle school children, called Mentors &#038;amp; Meals.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I'll post some photos of the bag with an outfit or 2 soon. My iPhone storage is full and I can't take any pictures right now.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;If you want a bespoke item, sized for you, I can't recommend Frankie enough. She's super responsive through Etsy.
&#060;/p&#062;
