I was quite disappointed in this purchase. I have only had it for 10 days, and by 7 days of use, the long handle had begun ripping and detaching from the purse (the only items I carried in it were an overstuffed wallet, smartphone, gloves, powder compact, and 3 pens, and 2 lip glosses, so it wasn't misused, by any means). It seems to be very poorly made. I am not sure what the other buyers were talking about when they said it looked just  like a designer purse. Even though I thought it looked poorly made up close, I thought it might be ok to use anyway, but I now fear it will completely fall apart. You could never carry anything remotely heavy in there, such as a book, or a laptop, even though these items would fit inside. The outside zipper is also catchy, and it hangs up and is hard to zip/unzip. I would expect a far better quality item, even for this price. Very nice color, nice design, very poor quality. I will return and attempt to get a refund. Too bad.
