My granny purse

Usually, street vendor purses are either:
A. smelling too rubber-esque
B. the shape is too bulky as one could imagine the initial pattern work would be far from intricate at $10 and under/ bag

All the above are negative attributes that some how persuaded my purchasing this quirky find:

THE IT'S SO UGLY IT WORKS! STREET VENDOR PURSE



Its so rubbery, bulky and dated it reeks of vintage 60's flavor, the right sorta plastic-ness that translate a sort of odd retro glamour. And to think you were once left untouched and unwanted on the shelves. Sadly, the plastic on the rim is loosing its rubber color vibrancy through the 5 years of wear and tare. Who knows when I'd come across such lovely odd goods again in the future.

Along with a pair of white rimmed sunglasses, this rubbery piece of bulk will be divinely stylish.
