"I purchased this bag in 2019, 4 YEARS AGO!" shared one of nearly 13,500 5-star reviewers. "There is not a scratch, a rip, a tear of any kind on this bag. I teach and have used this bag daily...I carry books [and] papers between classes...I've gotten more than my $ worth and will buy more as gifts."
"I live in New York City, in lower Manhattan," shared one fan. "This bag is so perfect. I love all the clips; the way you can switch from over the shoulder to a hand tote. I love the snap-in sectional. I love the sturdiness. I love the way it looks: rich! but it's very inexpensive yet made incredibly well. It's really, for someone on the go, the perfect accessory."
"Love this purse!" one of 2,500 5-star shoppers shared. "It’s very sturdy, love the fact that it’s reversible and it’s very fashionable. I bought it for my trip to Paris and it didn’t disappoint. It matched all my outfits. It rained on one of the days and it held up pretty well with the water. It’s big enough to keep my umbrella and all my stuff while I went shopping and the extra layers of clothing since it was a bit cold in the mornings!"
"I love this bag! It’s very sturdy, and I love the pattern. I usually carry my laptop and tablet in it. Don’t knock it until you try it! It was definitely worth the money and it’s not a waste!" said a fan.
"Love the look, space and pockets, easily holds everything I need it to for work and daily life," share one happy shopper. "Still small and light enough I don’t feel like I’m carrying luggage around every day. Love this purse!"
"Traveled to Europe and this bag was so convenient," wrote an Amazon shopper. "The only bag I brought for everyday wear and shopping sprees. Got lots of compliments. Looks identical to real leather. Ordering a black one also."
"I use this as my everyday bag. It’s classy, roomy and perfect for all of my needs," says a fan.
"I was worried my 17" laptop would not fit," shared a shopper. "It is a little bit of a tight squeeze lengthwise, however, it not only fits my laptop, but also my work Surface tablet, my planner, and two charging cords! It’s cute and looks way more professional than my old backpack."
"I bought this for work and it’s very stylish yet plain and simple," wrote one of 4,000 five-star fans. "Which is just what I like. It’s very sturdy and has a nice shape to it. I didn’t want to purchase too cheap of a bag and have it flopping all over the place. This bag will stand up on its own even without it being completely filled."
Per a satisfied customer: "I used this bag for work and for a short time school. It held my huge textbook, my binder, my notebook, both my hygiene and pencil bags, my organizer, three water bottles, my thermos, and my clothes and shoes for school. No damage. No wear and tear. Great bag."
