I love this handbag so much that when I somehow got green chewing gum on its identical twin, I didn't hesitate to order a new one (in the same color no less; why mess with perfection?) If, god forbid, something untoward should happen to this one, perhaps I'll be more adventurous next time & try the "cosmo." Aside from that, I know a good thing when I find it.

I had a larger Tignanello bag (which I loved almost but not quite as much) for a few years before this one. That one was technically a "tote," I think, & had the capacity to hold things like a hairbrush & a book. Now that I've switched to a Kindle, the need for the book is pretty much gone, & I'll make due with a comb. What's nice about this size is the not-losing-things & having to fish around for them. What's extremely nice is how the middle section eliminates the need for a wallet. I really can't say enough nice things about this handbag (apparently). I think I'll stop now. Oh--Just one little flaw: the credit card slots are a bit snug (having owned two now, I can say that how snug, & where, varies from "model" to "model.")
