I love this bag very much. I love the design. I'm very attracted to bags with ruffles. But the most important is that I can put everything from my Kindle, Ipod touch, small harry potter briefcase purse, train pass wallet, a note book journal, a makeup case (yes my whole life) change purse, and it not feel heavy at all! It still feels light, not heavy on my shoulder. I'm going to order the silver one as well. I highly recommend this hobo bag.  Be aware of the smell. My bag also had the strong chemical smell. So I washed it with Dawn soap. The smell eventually disappeared.
