I love this cross body bag and the color. This bag is just the right size and has a convenient front double zippered section, with rfid protected card slots, an ID window slot, a zippered change pocket plus other storage in this front section, for give quick and easy access to important stuff. Then there is the main section with a zip closure, that is roomy for a purse this size. Also in this section are 2 pockets and 1 zippered pocket. There's more. There are 2 large pockets or slots on the outer sides of the main sections that will fit most large cellphones, and there are magnets to keep these pockets closed. I got the pink in early January when it was on sale. I would love to have this bag in every available color. Get it, you'll be glad you did! Oh, I almost forgot, no worries about a flimsy strap and it is securely attached. I get so many compliments and people want to know where to buy it and I tell them. Read more

I love a good organizing handbag so I don't need to carry a separate wallet. I've purchased a couple of crossover organizer type purses from a prominent company but for 4x times the price. I just received this bag and compared to my existing bag and I'm pleased with this bag's design and size. The front pocket for credit cards and cash is a good size. It is also zippered which makes me feel more secure. The main purse section has good sized pockets for things like a cell phone. It also has another zipped pocket on the inside for stashing some private essentials. Finally it has a magnetic pocket on the back side. I love this pocket for putting in receipts or papers that I don't want to get crinkled in the main part of the purse. I just received the purse so I don't know how it will survive my clumsy handling of it. Net/Net - Love the size, price, pockets, and style. Will buy another if this one works as well as I think it will. Read more

I highly recommend this bag. For me, it replaces a similar but smaller purse I bought years ago that was to be, I thought, a temporary fix until a back problem was remedied. But the convenience of an attached wallet was so handy and the cross body design so comfortable I ended up carrying that bag for 8 years until it gave up the ghost last week. This is a replacement for that first bag and I have made a good choice. Again, the attached wallet was the clincher. Just unzip the three sides and there are your credit cards (facing you on the outside of the flap). In the middle is a zippered coin/money pouch, two open areas on each side of the coin pouch plus a side pocket on the inside flap. Plenty of room for a checkbook, medical info, pen/memo book, etc. And all out of the way so the rest of the purse is easy to navigate. On the outside of the purse, behind the wallet, is an open pouch. The body of the bag is zippered and inside are pockets for phones and another zippered area in the lining. (The lining is a shiny reddish mocha colored fabric which makes it easy to see what's inside). And, on the outside opposite the wallet is another pouch with a magnetized clasp. The quality of the leather and the construction seem good and sturdy. The strap is comfortably wide and is adjustable. I find the purse plenty big and have no problem fitting my hand(s) inside although other reviewers have mentioned this as a problem. I did a lot of soul searching before I made this purchase as I live close to the bone and the bag was a big expense.. So, I am happy to report that it was money well spent and I am happy with my purchase! Read more

This bag is as close to perfect as you can get with a very very few exceptions. I would have liked to have given it 4 1/2 stars but there are no 1/2 stars. I have another purse with the same basic design but a little bit smaller and always wished there was a little larger sized and I finally found it in this bag. First the Pro's. 1. The strap was packaged separately so it was not coiled or crimped like other brands I have received. It was folded nicely. 2. The inside was not black. I hate black interior bags because they are so hard to see what is inside especially at night. 3. The attached key holder is a big plus. 4. The magnets are very strong and hold very well. 5. So many well thought out compartments and placement with the built in wallet is what sold me. 6. The wallet compartment opens nice and large/wide so you can see and take out credit cards and such easily. 7. The zippers are made of matching color plastic and not sharp nail busting metal and work quite smoothly . 8. The size of the purse is just perfect and holds my small personal fan and also my iPad mini ten 6. 9. No distracting large plastered Logo. It's on the inside of the bag. 10. The strap tabs hold nice and tight and hold down the extra flap very well. 11. Love how the bottom is flat and the bag stands up on it own and doesn't fall over. Now the very few cons that I think would make this GREAT bag even better: 1. The straps where they meet with the buckle could have been placed just a little but further down the bag to allow the main zipper compartment to open and little more wider. As it is, it makes it a little harder to get your hand in and out comfortably. Just one more inch could make a big difference. 2. The bag had a slight off smell which has dissipated some but at first was a little much. 3. They key holder is quite a nice addition only it is attached from the bottom of the purse. It would work better if if were attached closer to the top. 4. Some of the compartments and very tight and hard to get cards in and out. Maybe that's a good thing so they won't fall out but a bit irritating. All in all, this is a great bag and I love it so much I bought a second one in what they call "Blue Jeans" but mine was actually more of a teal. A very nice gentle teal I might add. I also purchased the black one and love the golden interior lining. Easy to see stuff. I LOVE THIS BAG! Read more

This is a wonderful bag. I have it in black and have used it every day for 2 1/2 years. It still looks fine. Nice quality leather. Good built in wallet with lots of card slots and interior small zipper area. All the zippers and snaps are still working, and that’s where bags usually break down. I like that the black bag has a light colored lining so that I can find things. Perfect for those venues where you aren’t allowed to take a large handbag in. Highly recommend, and I may buy another just in case mine ever wears out. Read more
