I probably shouldn't have...

but I definitely did.

When I first saw this vintage style satchel on Lily Bees blog, I'll admit, I swooned a bit.

I was also going through post-Bahamas blues... so retail therapy was necessary.

The only bad thing I would say is that it can be a little fiddly when you are trying to get your purse out to pay for things. Also, I had to downsize the contents of my handbag (but, to be honest, this is probably a good thing, I carry so much rubbish around with me!).

But, overall I have a lot of love for this cute little bag.
