there are so many valid reasons why i should steer clear of this clutch:

1 i rarely carry bags.
2 when i do carry one, it’s usually because i need to haul a fair share of stuff, requiring considerably more space than what this has to offer.
3 i can’t quite justify spending upwards of two hundred dollars on something that i’ll only use occasionally at best.

and yet, the urge to throw caution to the wind and purchase it in a flurry of ill-advised clicks remains. funny how these things work.
