I love this purse for it's looks but it's a heavy thing with all the metal on it which also makes it noisy and I have to say, the clasps that hold the shoulder strap to the purse open all the time and my purse is on the ground.. THAT is not cool in a mall. It's heavy duty material and there was no odor like u get with some of the leathers.  If you like the color u will love the purse.. I am in a pink phase so this was so cool. it's got a touch of orange to it.. so it's not the mauve looking pink.. just be aware of that
