Luxe Link keeps your bag off the floor

Ever since Kristen's post about the groddy bottoms of our handbags, we've been twitchy and worked up about keeping our bag off the floor.

The experience made us realize that in most restaurants/bars/movie theaters there is no where to put your bag besides holding it on your lap. And if you're a big bag gal, like most of us, that's an awkward and uncomfortable position.

Much to our delight, this weekend a friend pulled a beautiful little enameled disk out of her bag, gave it a quick twist and voila, a personal bag hook for the table.

We demanded the details, which we're glad to share here. It's called a Luxe Link, it comes in several designs and in it's own little pouch so it's easy to carry in your bag. You can buy it online for $35.

Hey, this could make a great Mother's Day gift -- all moms have bags, right?

No matter how small, it does not go on the board room or dinner table. Proper etiquette dictates that you enter and exit on the right side of your chair. So naturally, your handbag should be placed on the floor to the right. This way as you exit, you simply reach down and grab your bag.

Good bags on the floor is not a good idea and quite frankly, still easy to steal. Handbag hook is something so simple, yet so useful and it's an investment in the care of your bag and what's inside! It truly is a fantastic gadget and it's one of those "how did we ever get by without one" types of things.

I bought my purse hook from PurseSitter and it is really a great way to go!! It's practical and stylish at the same time and it folds flat which can be stored away easily in a cosmetic bag or zipper compartment. I always carry it now and love, love, love this brilliant accessory! Purse Sitter has a really cute range of patterns and the price is great! Best gadget for all ladies and would make a fantastic gift item. If anyone wants to check out their whimsical collection, the website is http://www.PurseSitter.com
