The Black Rose: Botkier’s Mini Rosette Purse
A pretty rose purse (with a touch of goth) that’s just the right size for your id, debit card and lipgloss. Wait, I didn’t mention that there is room for a cellphone. Correct. Make note of this because I wouldn’t want you guys to be disappointed. The measurements are 3″ height x 3″ length x 1.5″ depth, so unless you plan on going phone-less or sliding your phone into your boyfriend’s (or husband’s) pocket or even tossing it into one of your girlfriends bags I wouldn’t recommend this little guy. The mini rosette is teeny-tiny indeed. But hey, if you don’t want to use it as a wristlet, then add a feminine touch to one of your plain simple leather bags by simply attaching it.
I’m a sucker for these rose design bags. Remember the YSL Rose Nadja bag? This Botkier Black Rose mini purse is newest and closest you can get to the Nadja without stocking the pages of eBay to get your hands on one of the rare forever-ago sold-out YSL bags. This little purse that looks like a mini version of the nadja, is dressed in the similar floral design of fabric that spirals to create the eye catching flower design. So cute, but so small.
