Kristin writes: I have been looking for the elusive perfect purse for about a year.  I am obsessed with Kooba purses, but I already own two and need to branch out in my brands.  It needs to be large enough to smuggle a three course meal into a movie theater, and hold up well in the rain.  Can you help me?

Hey Kristin – The perfect bag is like a unicorn – wonderful to think about but a thing more of myth than of fact. But of course I’m not about to leave you in the lurch. I found some big and sturdy fabulous bags I think you’ll dig. The Botiker is on major sale so if you like it jump on it – I promise you it won’t be around for long.

1 – KALE Palmer Shoulder Bag ($695)
2 – Monserat de Lucca Gilberto Shoulder Bag ($189)
3 – Botkier Addison Satchel ($381)
4 – Bryna Nicole Idora Studded Hobo ($267)
