by the way, I'm a dork.

So I bought this new purse the other day. I love it, it's cute and very retro and has the best closure ever.

And I was playing with it tonight, and I realized, finally, why I like the closure. It's nearly identical in style and feel to one that my paternal grandmother used to let me play dress-up with when I was a little kid. The handbag must have dated from the sixties, if not the fifties.

So, you know, hello childhood sense memory. Heh.

the reason this makes me a dork is because I really had no idea till tonight why I loved the closure so and the moment I touched it I knew I needed to buy it. Which is weird, for me.
