I usually carry fabric purses with some kind of design. Don't like being too ordinary, but recently bought a black purse with some metal buckles. Our oldest daughter was very impressed and likes it much better than my other ones. It doesn't have enough pockets to organize though, and I'm always digging for things.
My ideal purse is one that's not to big, and not too small with lots of pockets inside and out to orginize my stuff so it's easily accessible.
Here's a website to a purse style that I really like.

I should have ordered one of these in black.
