Scottie bag arrived

JAileen

Veteran

I ordered it when it went on sale. It's beautifully made, and completely useless. I don't ask much of an evening bag, but it must hold reading glasses and lipstick. Fitting my phone would be nice. This is so small and awkward that it's hard to even fit glasses into it. I'm returning it.

Bonus shots of Mr Skunky relaxing on the deck, and looking pensive.

Gosh that's a shame Jaileen. It's incredibly adorable. My minimum is phone without cover to case, a couple bills, id, credit cards and lippie. Glasses are always on my face. I'm a sucker, I would have made it work. You are wise, disciplined, and practical!! That's awesome. There will be a better scottie bag soon. Mr. Skunky is delectable!! Clearly he feels that he's the real deal, so why would you ever need that except as a very pricey chew toy!!

ETA: I have the KS "emma" clutch. I'm a huge JA fan and my current pups are Emma and Mr. Knightley! Sometimes a girl's gotta do, what a girl's gotta do.....

Jill, exactly.

Gryffin, he's definitely the real deal. He's the only Scottie we've ever had, so to us, they're huge (28 lbs!), super friendly, and a little sneaky.

Pity! Next!

Mr Skunky is so handsome!

Aw, what a shame -- it is adorable. But Mr Skunky is even more adorable!

Mr Skunky is so distinguished! Pity the bag is so tiny, looks like it could barely carry a Milkbone!

Too bad it is adorable. Mr Skunky is very handsome.

What a pity. Thanks for humouring us.

And Mr. Skunky is precious.

Kathleen

The bag is cute, but so small. Too bad.

I like Mr. Skunky's look as if he is deep in thought.

Thank you, Jane, Janet, JuniperGreen, StyleFan, Angie, and Kathleen.

I wanted to love the bag, but I couldn't. Angie, I hope you feel better, now, since they didn't have a Yorkie bag. Imagine how small it would have been!

Mr Skunky (not his real name) is indeed a precious boy.

Awww ... so cute, both doggie and purse. It's too bad that the purse didn't work out--but it's gotta do what it's designed to do, doesn't it?

UmmLila (Lisa)

Cute idea. I bet it's the sort of thing that could exist in the Kate Spade archive, too. And your doggie is the best.

I'm so sad, but totally agree - it is a crazy small bag. I wonder who the target market is? Love the (real) pup!

Grr, isn't that frustrating? I don't blame you for sending it back. Any bag that doesn't fit my phone is dead to me.

Mr. Skunky looks unimpressed anyway. Who needs an imitation when he is around!

Looked at the photos before reading your post. First reaction: that bag is a close second to your fur baby in terms of cuteness. Second reaction: what- only glasses fit in there? I completely understand your decision. Well worth a try, though.

PS- who doesn't require that a phone fit in their bag these days?

JAileen

Veteran

Emily, yes, it has to function!

UmmLila, Kate Spade does have lots of funky bags. I was at Macy's today and saw a popcorn box bag.

Karen, thank you. Maybe the designer was just having fun.

Jenn, I have a 6splus which didn't have a chance in the world of fitting.

Shevia, thank you! If only he could carry my glasses and lipstick!

Eliza, it was definitely very cute. Also beautifully made.

Bonus: Mr Skunky relaxing on my chaise.

Mr Skunky looked pensive because he was thinking "Why does she want that stupid tiny bag that doesn't even fit anything in, when she's got me?!" And he was quite right. I always have to have my phone, these days.

Amy Isabella

Veteran

That's a shame. Love the pictures of Mr Skunky - especially the one on HIS chaise!

Meredith

Veteran

So sad, but what an impractical size!

Brooklyn

Veteran

Look at your cutie pie doggy. Glad we got to see him. Sorry about the bag

anchie

Veteran

At least you now know that it does not work for you. Otherwise you would still think about it.

JAileen

Veteran

Jenni, you're right. I should be able to fit my phone.

Amy Isabella, thanks. He definitely thinks it's his!

Meredith, yes. It was a lovely teeny tiny bag.

Brooklyn, thank you. Mr Skunky is a good boy.

Anchie, you're right. I've moved on already.

Dianna

Veteran

Well, too bad it did not work, there will be other, more functional Scottie bags in your future. Mr. Skunky is handsome.

viva

I'm so sorry about that tiny bag!!! But on the upside, you have the most beautiful setting in which to lie on your chaise and contemplate this sad event with your pup. So lovely!!!!!

Joyce B

The real one is much better

JAileen

Veteran

Dianna, thank you! He got groomed last week.

Viva, thanks! I spend a lot of time on the deck and in the back yard. This week, the weather has been delightful. Most of the flowers are past their prime, though.

Joyce, thank you! He's a doll.

That's too bad about the bag. Looks like Mr. Skunky does a lot of relaxing--as he should!
