Romy Leather Tote

I stumbled upon this bag while shopping at my local Nordstroms. I was unfamiliar with the bag and asked the sales associate how the belting straps worked. They said they were not functional. As the sales price was good and I liked the bag I went ahead and bought it. When leaving the mall I stopped by the actual Tory Burch store to ask about the belting straps. I was again told they were not functional and were “just for show”. That made no sense to me. YouTube reviews to the rescue! The back belting straps when pulled apart at the same time cinches the bag as much or as little as you like! So you can get several uses out of this bag. A full blown wide open tote for laptop or travel needs or a smaller tote when you aren’t carrying a lot. Like two bags in one! Totally cool! The leather is great and I really like the suede-like lining. Gorgeous and functional bag! Btw, Tory Burch personnel really need to learn more about the bags they sell.
