Dyed Sheepskin Tote. 1970s. Maker: Unknown. Rectangular hippie-era purse made of sewn-together super-soft sheepskin squares in beige, brown, dark brown and rust. The circular handles are faux tortoiseshell. My friend Barb gave me this bag. While I love all my purses, it’s always nicer to know their provenance.

Oh mah gawd, that's soooooo Seventies! I can just see the elephant leg pants, peasant blouse, and gold rimmed sunglasses to go with it.

It's REALLY soft, too. I like to pet it.

Please tell me I don't need psychological help.
