Can you help me find beaded handbags?

Hey laides, I've been searching everywhere for a cute little beaded handbag. I've run across a few, but they're not exactly what I'm looking for. I need something black with silver (def not gold) accents and chain handle. I really love vintage looking bags (obviously) with black flowers or beaded swags or tassles. Have you run across any good sites that carry items like this? Perhaps bridal and prom dress and accessory sites? If so, do share!

I found this (<--click) on etsy, but there's a lack of silver beading...vintage looking though...
Then I found a few on houseofbrides.com

NOW, I found something on Davidsbridal.com that isn't beaded and it isn't cloth, so not really what you want, but I died and thought you might just love it. It's really different and has a really victorian feel, I think, anyway, which I think is what your theme is.

Hope that helps.

Oh yeah that stinks the ones I saw at Davids Bridal arent on the website. Pooh! They were so cute I was thinking about the ivory one

Thanks ladies! The "box" bag at david's bridal is really cute! I don't know if it works with our theme exactly, but if I had the money to blow on it as a "me" gift I would have to have it. The bags at houseofbrides.com were reeeaaallly cute! I also followed the link to etsy and ended up typing in a search and found a couple that are definitely in the running! I have been searching the thrift stores, antique shops, and local accessory shops and boutiques but nothing really strikes my fancy. I have found some extremely beautiful bags locally, but they have antique goldtone instead on silvertone accents. Also, I did find two antique beaded handbags locally from the late 1800's but they were about $300-$400 a piece!!!! Totally, amazingly gorgeous, but waaaayyyyy out of my price range.
