To start, thank goodness my folks were able to take my package in! The Amazon delivery person just left it out in the front gate! That was very... silly, I suppose is a nicer way to it, of them to do ( I live in an apartment complex in a somewhat sketchy neighborhood).I'd also love to give a shout out to the Amazon rep. who I spoke with this morning! Thank you Diksha for being so chill, talking me through the whole ordeal, and giving me the resources I need just in case my order was stolen!Okay, so the product. It's such a cute backpack! It feels pretty sturdy and it's just the right size too! There is a little stain on one of the straps, but no biggie! I've got a Tide-to-Go pen lol Plus, I plan on using this as a jogging backpack anyway! I'm very happy with my order!I love how soft it is and the multiple zipperedpockets. It holds a lot and looks like a regular backpack rather than obviously a purse. The so called “security pocket” is actually what i like least because to get in the main compartment of the purse you have to unzip the compartment that is behind the back pack straps (see strap side photo) which is a pain in my opinion. It is more secure this way, but it annoys me. All in all I love the backpack though. I have never had a backpack purse before and I love this one.How does this get all the raving reviews? Compared to what bags, ladies? This pales in comparison to just about every bag I have ever owned. The material feels nothing like leather, I have short nails and accidentally scraped it as I was picking it up, and some of the brown color came off. Haha... The inside material is just as cheap feeling. I'll be replacing with a better quality bag. Purchases like this are the downside of buying online.Very cute and spaciousThis has been worth every penny! Cute, lightweight and well made. I’m using it as a diaper bag, but would be great as a purse or general medium sized backpack. Love it! Would order again!I really like this backpack. Cute, seems to be built well, comfortable to wear.The adjustable straps to wear like backpack moves easily out of where I moved it to fit the way I want.Love this bookbag! It’s beautiful, soft leather and has a ton of space! It offers a long strap as well in case you’d like to wear it as a shoulder bag giving it multiple looks and styles!This is really well made and it's easy to access everything. I was looking for a smaller purse backpack so this was much bigger than I thought. I guess I should have read the descriptionUPDATE : still loving this bag! Please notice I have now had it for over 2 months. It spent 30 days in Europe with hard use! Been used as my main purse since being home and today it is hiking on a rocky beach in NSW it has 2 water bottles some shells and beach towel. We have even hung our shoes when walking. ….. Original review: When I first received it was smaller than I had envisioned but it was what I needed for the size requirements for several museums and the Vatican. I did not want to mess with lockers . I felt VERY secure with it on my back or under my arm with the shoulder option. In a Rain storm in Venice with it under my arm not a single thing inside got wet and it was a HUGE rainstorm. We were soaked to the bone. It easily fit the Sistema 300 ml and 600 ml metal bottles in the side pockets. In crowded areas I always made sure the back was zipped to one side or the other and then had a clip that kept the zippers together. The side more exposed zipper pockets were perfect for my EpiPen and wipes. The front pouch was either my sunnies or other nonvaluable essentials. I dragged this bag through 28 days in Rome, Venice, Naples, Santorini, Mykonos, ....... a cruise and 3 days at Paris Disney. It went through RainStorms and many many 35 - 41 degree days it was comfortable and my husband even wore it a few times. The Size was perfect. This bag after 28 days of abuse looks wonderful. I do recommend have pouches for organization and I always kept money and cards in the INTERIOR zippered pocket in the section that was against my back. It has endured dust, dirt, city streets, sweat, and rain.
