A simple case, a case more complicated and the most complex and interesting, with embroidery and a pocket - all equally comfortable and practical.
These handbags-covers are convenient in that you can take a bottle of water with them, for example, for a walk, while your hands will remain free. If you add a pocket to the case, as in the third master class, you can also put some little things in your purse, for example, keys or several notes.
