Sturdy, roomy, preserves my shoulders!
Color: Pink
Cute and perfect to help me with my new "minimalist" commitment. After multiple shoulder surgeries I needed to get the purse straps OFF my shoulders. This wristlet hangs on my wrist without slipping off and has enough room for my wallet, chapstick, hand sanitizer, air pods, a few pens, a protein bar, and one or two other random items. Looks small, holds a LOT! Withstands my everyday life of banging it around, spilling coffee on it, and generally putting it through a wringer. It still looks great!

A great, small wristlet purse.
Color: Black
I purchased an ivory and navy blue GAYI URBAN clutch bag and love them! Small, Cute, classy and surprising how much you can fit in the purse! I also purchased a black one that smells like dead fish and am returning that one. That is disappointing.
