The Lucy Bag is my take on a fun and classic 1960’s purse. It’s got great style and the best part is that it’s handmade one of a kind.

Size— about 10 inches wide, 5.5 inches tall and 2 inches wide at the bottom. The handle is 7.5 inches long.

I placed a piece of cardboard at the bottom of the bag to give it a tiny bit more structure. It has velcro closures as shown in the photos.

It holds about all you need to bring with you; keys, glasses, wallet, phone, etc.
