I have been looking for a casual but stylish all-day bag that is big enough to carry around what I need without being bulky. This bag is gorgeous, is exactly the style I was hoping for, and has nearly everything I wanted. As other reviewers have said, it is fairly large, but a lot of that size is in the height of the bag, not the width, and as the leather is very soft the top slouches - in a good way - so it just doesn’t look big or bulky, while still giving you the option to put a lot of stuff in there. The shoulder strap is wider at the top than the ends, which makes it more comfortable and secure to carry. Having the cross-body strap is a huge bonus and it doesn’t interfere or look weird when I’m carrying the bag by the shoulder strap. There are only two things that stop this bag from being completely perfect. First, while I can fit an iPhone 14 Pro in the side pockets, I can’t snap the flaps shut with the phone in there. Just an inch deeper pockets would let you keep most phones in the easily accessible side pocket - or even just moving the snaps a half inch higher might have been enough to be able to close the flap over the top of the phone. On the plus side, I can fit a small water bottle - about the size of a plastic water bottle - in the side pocket, which is a great feature I haven’t seen in similar style purses. Second, the lack of interior pockets is definitely a con. Just two more interior pockets would make it super easy to find things like keys or a wallet, instead there is just one zipped interior pocket which isn’t enough. The exterior pocket is handy, but not as convenient for quick access to things like a wallet as it’s on the back side of the purse so harder to get to when you’re carrying it on your shoulder. Those two cons are the only reason I’m giving the bag 4 stars instead of 5. It’s beautiful and at the price point totally worth it, even with those slight design flaws.
