Vined Embroidery

While brown isn't exactly a springy colour (can that season arrive quickly enough?), it's wonderfully versatile in the right shade and makes a far nicer compliment to most things than black does (most of the time). This prettily embroidered and appliqued purse from Divine Diva Art has such soft, gentle lines it wasn't possible to pass it up today.

More than big enough to tote around all of your necessities — even a book or two — the $45 handmade and hand-embroidered bag has an exterior of cotton but a durable, tough, "beat me up, I can take it" denim interior. That's smart thinking!
