The little handle on the top is surprisingly convenient. I grab it every time I use my bags, so it's not just decoration. This is the small size, the perfect wallet replacement (why not add a few credit card pockets to the lining?) or as a party bag when you only need the little things. Both bags are made in Tula Pink fabric, the flaps are "Disco Kitty" in different colors and I used the "Cat Eyes" for the lining matched with a vinyl on the large bag, and a Tula Pink Solid cotton fabric for the small bag. And the beautiful purse locks are from Emmaline Bags.
The Hollywood Handbag like all my bags is fully lined. It is also the perfect excuse to use one of those beautiful, fancy bag locks you've been saving for that perfect project! Just look at all the different, pretty ones on my testers bags further down.
It has interior slip pockets in each zippered compartment.
The back is smooth.
You can see more photos of the large bag in my previous post. But here's a few size comparisons.
Finished size small bag: ~6 ¾” (17cm) high, ~9 ¼” (24cm) wide and ~¾” (2cm) deep at the base.
Finished size large bag: ~8 ¾” (22cm) high, ~9 ¼” (24cm) wide and ~¾” (2cm) deep at the base.

As always, this pattern wouldn't be a reality without my amazing pattern testers making sure everything is absolutely perfect before the release! And every time I think they've outdone themselves with their work, but this time, they've really all blown my mind with their BEAUTIFUL work!
