Too big for petite women

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Need bags that are proportionate for petite women. I am 5 ft and all these bags look humongous on me.

Good

Love this bag, simple and not bulky. The only two things that would make it a 5 star: inside pocket, and another flap on the back for putting over rolling luggage (versus only one)

Very useful bag

I already have a backpack, which has served me very well. I was looking for a lightweight tote that is big enough for a laptop, that I can also use as a purse and that has a strap pass-through for the telescopic handle of my carry-on. This bag fits all my requirements. It is also well made and stylish. Very happy with my purchase. The only improvement would perhaps be to have a pocket for a water bottle. But it is perfect for my purpose as is.

Excellent Tote

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the tote on my most recent trip. It was the perfect accessory! It is roomy, lighweight, and stylish. Glad I made this purchase

Works very well

Happy with this product. It holds my laptop, some documents, a water bottle (no specific holder) and my small purse. the pockets on both sides hold my cords, pens, tissues, a small book, some snacks, and such. Very good for a lightweight tote,
