I received mine as a gift. While driving I set it on the seat next to me. Almost every time I brake, it falls off and the contents dump. It has a button ( I rarely use).... perhaps I'm learning impaired?? I could turn it the other way or set it on the floor! LOL

I wonder if for the metal closure they are talking about using part of a metal tape measure. Just a guess!

The last time my mom had her hair done, she said that all the ladies at the beauty salon were "ooing and aahhhing" over her purse! I use the magnetic closure and it seems to work great for me. I don't like fussing with a loop and button. I may try putting the bottom stabilizer into the lining on my next bag - sounds like a great idea.

Great job ... yours look like Vera Bradleys ! :)

Karen: The Mom's bag is beautiful! I like the other two too, but especially the mom bag.

I use mine and yes, things fall out if I throw it in the back seat of the car. Otherwise it isn't too bad.
