shoulder bags - reviews

LOVE LOVE LOVE
I first bought my original ... two years ago. It was such a hit I have since bought two more in different colors, and another for my daughter to use as a diaper ... receive many compliments, especially on the cognac color. I have had to have straps repaired on two of the bags by a shoe maker, but honestly we pack a lot in these bags and they are heavy. Cannot wait to see new colors.

Love it!
I love my large brown tote ... wore it the day I received it. It is lightweight and comfortable to carry on my shoulder. Yes, It is bigger than I expected, but it looks fashionable and perfect for spring and summer. I look forward in using it to my trip this weekend to Florida because I know that I can fit all my small important stuff plus all the extra things that I need to carry for my toddler. Definitely, a great buy!

Great color and style
I love the color of this ... perfect for spring. The ... unlined sadly, but Iit is made of real ... structured slightly better than the cognac and black bags that I bought earlier this year. The ... not as wrinkled. It is roomy for a lot of items.

GREAT ...
Right up front I want to say that the best surprise about this tote, that isn't even hinted at in the pictures, is that if you don't have it crammed with stuff you can magnetically close it and the sides kind of tuck themselves in automatically so the whole thing takes on a triangular look that is just terrific. I have gotten so many complements on this ... which I am using as a tote along with my handbag when I go to work. Once the weather warms up I may just use this a purse altogether. Very comfortable straps to carry in your hand or on your shoulder. Larger than average pocket inside. Oh, and the leather is lightweight with a neat sawtooth edge at the top (like pinking shears) and seams (contrast stitching), with lots of nice character in the coloring. I thought I was going to get the blue one to be different, but the cognac "popped" against whatever I was wearing and looked elegant so that's what I've got and am loving it.

Great all purpose tote
I got this ... pink. It's a little bit deeper of a color, much richer looking than it appears online. I was a little afraid of ordering that color, that it might look cheap, neon, or too young for my late 30's self. Not so, I am very happy with the color, it's a great color for spring, but doesn't look like it's leftover from you easter outfit. The quality of the leather is very good. It's not a very thick leather, but it's very smooth, and the unlined inside is very soft. The magnetic closure at the top works well, and looks good being sewn inside the leather. The pinking edge is not as bad as it sounds, either. I carry a fair amount of stuff in it - netbook, kindle, small makeup ... ipod, 2 wallets (I regularly use 3 different currencies) passport case, phone, smokes, etc etc etc. Yes, a lot of stuff, and still don't fill the ... up. No problems with the straps, stay on my shoulder well, and don't dig in. One thing I've never understood is bad reviews that gripe about all the things an item is not - no zipper, no pockets, no organization, no lining. The description and the photos make it pretty clear that you're not going to get any of that. I think this ... exactly what BR says it is and good value for the money, even at full price. I'd really like another, but sadly, they are out of the gold. I'd definitely buy it again, and may even splurge and get one for my best friends b'day coming up.

best tote ever!!
im obsessed with these bags. ive gotten 5 of them in the last few years, in ... mix and they all rock! im a bit of a ... snob usually and tend to stick with bigger designers for my purses, but i cannot let go of these totes. i use them for everything from gym bags to carryons to grocery holders. they hold up so well and get a huge amount of compliments. only caution is they just have one little open pocket so not the most convenient as your only purse unless you want to search for everything at the bottom.

Great all purpose ...
Love the romminess of the ... It's the perfect ... toss in smaller more organized bags to keep things all in one place! I use it for work as well - easily fits in file folders and a 13" laptop. Gorgeous ... looks stylish.

Versatile ...
I love this tote! I now own it in two colors. When carrying it as a purse, I push the sides in and it looks more like a triangle. It is spacious but not overwhelmingly large. I can pull one strap off of my shoulder, while the other one stays on, and peer straight inside to get and/or see whatever I need. There is only one small pocket but I use small makeup bags inside the ... put my extra small stuff in...no problem. The leather is super soft! It is beautiful in every color.

Pretty Good Versatile Tote!
I love the generous size of this tote; You can just throw anything in there for the day, the plane trip, whatever, and it'll hold it all just fine. The leather is very soft and flexible. I'm so glad it's not stiff leather, but it was definitely more floppy than I expected. I don't mind too much though. I think the biggest thing I don't like, is that the straps are very thick and stiff. I wish they weren't rolled leather, or were made to be more flexible somehow. I just got the ... but I can see the straps slipping off my shoulder unless I put more stuff in the ... sort of weigh it down. It's not exactly what I personally was looking for, but it's still a good leather tote. The price is a bit high though; I would value it closer to 80 for the original price. I got the cognac color, and when I received it there were actually some marks/scratches in the leather already, but nothing that stands out and it actually sort of "proves" it's real leather. It's not noticeable unless you look sort of closely, and I expect it will scuff more as I use it. Like some previous reviews said, there's not exactly a second layer lining, but the external leather has a sort of felt backing to it that lines the inside of the tote. It's inseparable from the leather, but the tote is lined. Overall, if you are looking for a structured ... not the tote for you. If you just want a large, ... "throw everything in" ... would be a good purchase and I recommend it. Hope this is helpful! PS: I'm a college student.

Don''t love it...at all
Just got this ... after using it for a few hours, it's going back. There is NO structure to the ... if you have your things in a pillowcase!!! The sides collapse in on themselves, making the ... look like a diamond shape, not a square. I was surprised that the ... isn't lined at all, the inside is just the back side of the ... very thin ... Also...ALOT shinier than pictured, and the contrast (white) stitching is way more noticeable than pictured. I know this ... "affordable" by BR standards, but truly I have had better bags for far, far less. I know it won't last long, as it is so thin and unlined....sending it right back.

versatile, yet too big
I don't like it and I will be returning it ASAP. The ... too floppy and the handles are really stiff and sit uncomfortably on the shoulder. Do not reccomend
