I'm so excited to pair up with The Violet Vixen for an adorable giveaway today.  We're giving away this cute flamingo print handbag to a lucky Va-Voom Vintage reader!


The Violet Vixen sent a bag to me too and I immediately fell in love with it as soon as I opened it. Like a lot of ladies, I have a ton of cute purses but I'm very particular about the one I use every day. This one definitely fits the bill as the perfect every day bag for me. It includes a long detachable strap, if you don't want to use the short handles, although the short handles are long enough to sit on your shoulder.

The bag itself is much bigger than it looks from the outside. I'm a big fan of huge purses because I often tote around my recent knitting project, things for the kids, a notebook, and lately I've needed a big enough bag for all of my Girl Scout leader stuff! I had a Girl Scout training the night that the bag arrived and I was able to fit my new leader packet, my big wallet, a notebook, my phone and charger, lipstick and all kinds of paperwork inside and still have room for more. The inside lining has a little zipper pocket, spot for a few pens and another little pocket. The cute little bows detach with a snap closure if you want to change it up a little bit. My perfect everyday bag also has to be really unique with some kind of crazy print. I've been toting my Transversion airline bag around for well over a year but I can't resist kitschy flamingos!



You could easily use this purse as a diaper bag or overnight bag but it's not so cumbersome that it looks like you're hauling luggage around.



One lucky lady will take home a Flamingo Purse this week!
