There *are* some pretty darn impractical bags at Nordies, but nothing I've ever bought there, on sale or otherwise, has ever started falling apart, and that includes my totally adorable canvas minibag with bright pink straps. And Canvas almost always bites it after three or four uses. Plus? Nordstrom? And their return policy? You almost can't afford to not shop there. I'm with you.

But FWIW, I know deviantauthor, and I don't think she's directing things at you...
