I have a bit of a bag obsession, and I found my holy grail of handbags last year in Paris: it's large, navy blue with red trim leather, with an apothecary bag-style opening. When I walked into this particular store I thought I'd died and gone to handbag heaven.

Did you get it???

Fuck yes! It was at the end of our trip and I'd already over spent, and I was trying to talk my self out of liking/buying it, but Jordan was like "you'll never find something like this again" (he gets me), so I got it. Will post a pic later.

Huh. They seem very studiedly conservative? Maybe it's all the quilting and the Kate Spade-esque apple green.

feel like wanting a "perfect bag" or even a "nice bag" is inherently conservative so might as well go all-in

I reject every part of that statement.

"My perfect bag" or "the perfect bag for what I want right now" not the same as "The Perfect Bag" (according to who? perfect for what?).

this evening I will go home, open my tired, beat up (I have worn holes in the cordura, folks) black LA Police Gear bail out bag that I've had since late 2010, and take all of my gizmos and notebooks and sundries out, and put them into a Topo Designs Mini Mountain Bag that was [NaN] times the price (the old black bag was conference swag at a thing I spoke at once, for like 20 minutes, seriously, I was free edutainment for less than half an hour, it was a tad ridiculous).
If it is the perfect bag, I will post an update.

It is a pretty good bag so far

I like it. Can you fit a laptop in there? the australian review i watched only tested how many 6 packs would fit.
