I’m a big fan of Kipling handbags. One of the most important reasons is because they are lightweight. (How can women carry around big, leather purses that weigh so much before you even put anything in them?) The Syro has the perfect amount of zipper compartments in all the right places. There is a cloth divider inside and while some dislike it, I prefer it. I keep my wallet on one side and use the other side for papers such as receipts, letters, bills and coupons. In a little zippered compartment inside, I stash a small bottle of Tylenol, gum and tape measure. There is even room for a pair of sunglasses and selfie stick on the ocassions that I might need them. The outside pouch with flap is where I keep my car keys and in the zippered slot above it, I put my cell phone. The zippered slot on the other side is where I keep lip gloss and a couple ink pens. I purchased this in gold, which is a nice neutral to go with everything. I would love to see it offered in silver; I would snatch that color right up, too. I like the strap that is easily switched from a shoulder strap to crossbody when needed. I’d prefer the purse cost less; I asked for this as a birthday gift from my husband who was happy to splurge. I hate the monkey keychain and took it right off soon as I got it. I’ve carried the Alvar Kipling bag but prefer this as it is just as long but not as tall which works better for me; easier to find items in the purse.
