"I love that this bag isn't too big, but can fit my phone, wallet, and cosmetics bag in it. There are two outside compartments, one with a zipper. Inside there are two open pockets and another one with a zipper. The different compartments make it easy to find everything. The neutral color goes with everything. Just what I was looking for."
"Adorable bag! Very functional, and just the right size for me. I love the crossbody style. So much easier on my back and neck! Seems very well made and I love the woven leather. Trendy! Really nice bag overall."
"I love this bag. It’s a perfect size and I love all the compartments for easy access to store my phone and keys without having to dig through the bag. I also get a lot of compliments on it."
"I absolutely love this purse!!! It’s so soft and it’s the perfect size. I’m 100% happy 😊"
"I love this bag! My first thought after seeing how nice it was, to say I need to return it. However I decided to keep it as it is a beautiful bag. It’s a bit too small for all my allergy meds, wallet and girly things. No makeup included. I was expecting the front pocket to open the length of the bag so it would fit my appointment book. It did not so I’m looking for another bag again. This one will be great for going on a cruise where I won’t need a huge amount of keys or other items from home. I have shoulder injuries so was trying to lighten my load but I may have to go back to a bigger bag to be able to fit my appt book in an outside pocket."
"Beautiful purse! Perfect size for summer travel!"
"It’s exactly what I wanted. The perfect size and color. I love Sak!!"
"The quality of the purse is excellent. Love the adjustable strap so you can wear as a shoulder bag or crossbody."
"I love everything about this bag. The color, size, weight & feel. I will be carrying it a lot over the holidays."
"Love it! Very well made. Perfect size for summer adventures. Wish I had purchased it earlier this season, but there is always next year."
