Not wanting to take long shopping, the only thing I sought was a suede handbag, having lost three of my collection when the dog ate the handle from one, chocolate melted in the second, and my kid poured juice into the third. It was necessary for me to attend the work-related event the evening of the following week, so I needed a suede bag urgently.
I had every intention of getting one of those more-or-less acceptable suede handbags when I slipped out of the office during my lunch break. I naively asked the ever so obliging saleslady, what, would be the style that would LOOK acceptable under most circumstances overall?
I checked out a few suede handbags, picking them up, touching them in a disinterested fashion and then looked around with a bored look on my face.
"How about one of the small black suede handbags," the lady asked?
This bag piqued my interest instantly, I felt it, squeezed it, and caressed the material. I was hooked - "suede" and persuaded! My newest suede handbag.

I embraced it and reveled in its softness as I returned through the grueling traffic back to my office. The work environment was unforgiving with jarringly irritating noise during lunchtime. But my handbag nuzzled me, reassuringly soothing and comforting- gentle as a kitten and sleek as a panther.
Having returned to the office, I moved it twice after I had carefully put it down. Everywhere felt entirely unsafe, like a new mother, I spent my afternoon being over protective.
"I am grateful for the coffee you brought me, but DON'T put it near my beautiful suede handbag, just leave it on my desk, but not to close to it. "If that dog tries to tear up my handbag as he did last time, he may wish he hadn't
because I shall have his hide. It's a tempting idea, as he'd be so cuddly, have no bad habits, but I won't go there... He wouldn't match any of my outfits.
The event left me wanting to reach for my suede handbag. I needed a comforter for all occasions so I have found myself a secret friend. I wouldn't say that I was the bell of the ball, but, I showed loads of confidence and amazed everyone of my colleagues.
