Really late to the party, but could you please become a fashion designer? I'd buy everything. ; _;
This purse is so absolutely gorgeous it breaks my heart nothing I've seen like this exists. It's elegant, very classy, and just over all very unique and well designed. This my first time coming across your work (I just saw your final fantasy plush, I'm awestruck and haven't snooped more yet) and if you EVER create an etsy shop I DEMAMD a link! Take my watch and please don't stop making incredible things.

Aww   thank you so much!  I'll be sure to let you know if I ever start an Etsy shop! That being said, I do take commissions when time allows. I'm a bit busy with a few projects at the moment, but in a month or 2 I might have enough time to make something if you'd like to commission anything  

I really do enjoy designing purses - it's so hard to find nice, interesting ones. I just wish I was better at pattern drafting and sewing! I'm essentially self-taught - since I haven't taken any classes on pattern drafting it takes me sooooo long to make even a single sewn project!  My Mu plush alone took an entire very frustrating month of non-stop work to craft! If only I was faster at it! I have some really awesome scale texture fabric in my supplies just waiting to be turned into a dragon hyde-themed purse, but it just takes so long to do a project like that that I keep putting it off  

Anywho, I'm glad you like my purse! Thank you so much for your sweet comment!

In my opinion, it looks like the Chanel hoop purse from 2014 (this season too). Stop copying things, you can get sued!

No offense, but I just Googled the hoop purse you mentioned and it looks nothing like this wonderful piece.

Thank you! Yeah, I'm pretty sure that other person was just trolling, but if anyone's going to troll me they better be ready for (what I hope is) an eloquent retort and public shaming. Nobody likes a troll

Well I certainly enjoyed reading your witty retort and public shaming.

I didn't (and don't) copy anything. I have no idea what the Chanel 2014 hoop purse looks like - I make a point not to follow fashion trends because I believe it defeats the point of what fashion is all about. The right clothes or accessories can give a person a sense of self-confidence, and with self-confidence, success. If a person needs to look to the runways or professionals in the industry to tell them what will be popular that season, then I believe they are essentially looking to others to see what others will approve of, rather than deciding for themselves what they like and what makes them feel good about themselves. I believe such motives can only lead to superficial self-confidence and self appreciation, and, as I said, defeat the point.

My designs, whether this purse or outfits that I have designed for characters in my other original works, are completely my own and designed based on my own tastes. Frankly, I was personally offended by this comment. I would have marked this comment as spam, but I felt it was important that I respond to it. 

If this purse really does look like the purse you mentioned (which I somehow doubt), then that is completely coincidental. Artists who have never met and who have never seen each other's work sometimes create work that is coincidentally similar. There are a lot of people in this world; it is unrealistic to think that some ideas don't pop up independently in multiple places. You should therefore consider carefully before accusing artists of copyright infringement.

I would appreciate it if you would refrain from any further offensive remarks. Any further offensive remarks will be reported as spam and I will block you.

Thanks! I'd love to do that kind of work (as long as I'd only have to do the designing and not the sewing ) - I think it would be a lot of fun! Unfortunately I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to break into that industry - the college I attended didn't offer fashion design classes, so I don't really have the knowledge necessary to be a working professional in the fashion industry. Instead, I concentrated my studies on illustration. Being a fashion designer is one of my pipe dreams though!

I know, right? Shopping for purses is the worst - everywhere I go, the styles are all the same  Anywho, thanks for the comlipment

You're welcome!

I also don't like the fact that most purses are big enough to carry a whole other outfit and shoes in. Of course, that's because I will fill whatever sized bag I have.
