I think it cheapens the look of an otherwise elegant purse.

I wish the pocket placement was my idea but it was actually a pattern I found. The purse itself is the way I always make them just did the pocket different.

OK here is a pic of the purse without the trim. Should have included it from the start. The purse is for my friends sister. I too did not care for the trim with these pockets. We may look for another trim or just leave it but I think my friend wants to add something else to it.....we shall see.
I lucked out on the heart and bird. I got them on clearance at JoAnn's. THe heart was 99c and the bird was $2.97 on sale.

Loose the trim. Good job, like the colors.:)

Ditto!! Love the purse.

That pocket material is so pretty -- how about making your own trim using that same fabric?

I, too, think it would look better without.

I agree, better without, but love the buttons.

The trim doesn't show up very well because of the fabric so unless you add a band of plain fabric and mount the trim on that I would take the trim off. :D

I think I might leave the top trip off, but that's just my opinion.
