I bought this purse for a trip as I wanted something that would look dressy in addition to being a good travel purse. I really like how you can have it across your chest or shorten the straps and have it under your arm.  However it is pretty small.  Probably ideal for someone traveling alone and not with your kids in tow who require a bunch of other things to be brought along.

I used it as a carry-on on the plane and was able to fit my kindle, a few granola bars, glasses and the necessities but it was crammed full. The purse is barely two inches wide so don't expect to put anything bulky in it (DSL camera, water bottle, etc).  It worked great on the trip though.  I use it occasionally as my regular every-day purse.  My wallet fits it in and not much else in the main section.

My favorite thing about this purse is the front pocket that you can slide your smartphone into.  Really easy to access it when needed. I'm getting ready for another trip (with my kids) and am looking at getting something larger as I don't think this will work for that.
