Was unsure

I was a bit unsure of buying this bag because of the crescent-ish shape, but the price was right so I gave it a shot and I’m glad I did. Potential con (unsure): It’s super soft, almost silky feeling, so I hope it doesn’t scratch easy. Pros: even though it’s small, I can fit a small wallet, purse, keys, makeup, a snack.. I also like how adjustable it is. I’m 5’4 and it can fit me at the hip or just under my armpit. 90s vibes.

Lovely bag, needed conditioning right away

The indigo shade is beautiful, the leather is soft and the sizing is great. The bag did arrive looking terribly dry and needed to be conditioned right away to have the shine shown in the photos.

I love the neutral color.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the neutral color. The soft leather is fabulous. I’m saving it for spring because I’m using the same purse in black cherry suede for the winter. Love, love, love the style of this purse. It’s not that big, but it holds a lot.

Nice purse, but the zipper

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice purse, but the zipper is large and has very rough teeth. It snags my clothes when I use it. I’m disappointed with that aspect of the bag. Would not buy it again for that reason.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this pocketbook. The size i perfect and the length is the big factor for me which is perfect. My only complaint is how long it takes to get the pocketbook.

Great purse!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this purse design. Easy to carry, not too large but enough space inside for all your essentials. This is my second one. I will probably be ordering additional ones in other colors. It’s fun to add tassels or other fun items to the loop. Perfect purse for the woman on the go……

Love the texture and color

I have this bag in a few colors and textures. The hand woven is my favorite. It’s low maintenance so I don’t have to worry about it. This black cherry static color is everything. I wa worried it was going to be a bright red like the pictures which I wouldn’t like, but it’s not. It’s a true black cherry color. Like a rich deep burgundy. It’s so fun to wear!
