This bag is FABULOUS. It looks and feels like leather, and the color (I have the orange one) is gorgeous without being obnoxious. I've gotten so many compliments on this bag! The best part is that even when you're wearing the shoulder strap, it doesn't feel too heavy. It's big enough to carry all my stuff and small enough to still look like a purse and not a tote. The only real negative is that the handles aren't long enough to throw over my shoulder. Other than that, it's a GREAT bag and an amazing steal for the price!
