Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I absolutely love this little purse! I wanted something small and protected for my upcoming trip to NYC, yet I wanted to make sure I was able to carry all of the essentials. This purse is a perfect size and has so much room! I had trouble trying to visualize the size of it when I was debating whether to buy it, so I took a picture of of it next to a regular 16.9 oz water bottle for size reference. The water bottle will fit in the largest part of the purse and you can still zip it, but the water bottle would need to be at an angle, and I'm not sure there would be room for anything else in that compartment. I love that there are so many zippered pockets on the outside to make for easy access for me. The pocket on the back side of it fits my galaxy s4 in its otter box defender case perfectly, and it is not tight where I will have trouble getting the phone in and out, yet is secure and not out in the open. I was nervous, as I saw some reviews mentioning receiving a product with a strong chemical smell. Mine is perfect and smells like leather, but not overpoweringly so. The seller that I went through was Vine Branch. Prompt shipping and prime eligible. The color is gorgeous (I got the burgundy), and the strap is adjustable but can be set to be pretty long if you want it for a cross body, or shorter for an over the shoulder purse. I wanted it to sit just at hip level when wearing it cross body, and it is long enough that it could be even lower than that. The strap is thin and not obtrusive, yet sturdy. The only negative thing, which is not a big deal to me at all, is that the material on the inside seems cheap and thin. I'm not going to try to tear it to test it, lol, but it seems like it could tear if you had something sharp in there. Just a guess though, I could certainly be wrong, and it's not something that you see anyway. Overall I am extremely pleased with this product. I don't even want to say that it is such a great item for the price, because I would compare it to much more expensive items and still say it is a great product!
