FashionPuzzleZip-Around Saffiano Classic Dome Satchel

It's a great purse for color, quality and size. I definitely get a ton of compliments whenever I use it because it's a great pop of color when I'd wearing solid colors. But my biggest issue is the design and lenth of the shoulder straps. They're too thick and too short and they take away from the elegance of the piece. My solution is that I'm going to remove the straps that came with the bag and replace it with a chain that will make it look much more chic and less bulky.

I've needed to carry a huge-a** bag for forever because I must carry a boatload of things for work every day: a portable fan, battery charger, batteries, nonalcoholic wipes, earbuds, thermostat, my lunch, water bottle, etc. I used to carry a 16" x 11" x 5.5" leather bag. While it was gorgeous and fit everything, over time I ended up injuring my upper arm muscles (grr). Because I also have ankle, hip, and leg injuries, I walk with a cane and so have resorted to using a roller bag for my work junk and carrying a far more reasonable handbag for my personal everyday items.This is the incredibly reasonable handbag. **Edited 3/8/20: I bought the black ostrich in January 2020, & it was gorgeous, but after several days of using it, I regretfully found it too small for my needs. I returned it (remarkably still in brand-new condition) and bought a similar bag that was about 3” longer and roughly 1” deeper. After 2 months of use, to my surprise, I found that bag too heavy and it was painfully straining my arm muscles. (BTW, I am not a 98-pound weakling. Gee, I wish I approached 98#, as I'm only 5'2". Rather, I have chronic illnesses that cause daily pain, weakness, exhaustion, ad nauseam.) Ok. Evidently I needed to pare down my everyday stuff even more relentlessly.And something about that black ostrich bag still called to me—whether it was the striped lining, the streamlined, structured, and compact style, the flexibly adjustable shoulder/cross-body strap—the image of that bag kept popping into in my head.So I went back to look at this particular bag and found all sorts of gorgeous new colors! I fell in love with the fuchsia, bought it, and at this price point, may buy beige or blush or ostrich red as well.These bags are convenient and versatile to carry; though they are not leather, they are clearly quality; they hold all your essentials (so long as you don’t have to carry your whole life with you, as I once did), and are the perfect size for an everyday bag.I apologize for this tome-length review. I am absolutely in love with this bag, am glad I bought it again, and my sore and creaky body thanks me too.**Update 5/8/20: I now own this bag in fuchsia, beige, blush, and ostrich black. The colors (on my computer, at least) are true as represented. I thought I shouldn't wear it as a crossbody, as I'm a bit thick around the hips, but tried it for the 1st time last night, and it's a perfect way to carry this bag. This is my ideal bag, even though it's a wee bit small to hold my eyeglasses case & my phone at the same time. No big. My quest for the ideal bag is over. I highly, highly recommend this handbag. Thank you, thank you, Fashion Puzzle & Amazon!**Update 8/25/20: I've switched to the black ostrich for fall & winter. Had to show you my new pics. If I weren't now on a fixed income (I'm retired now), I'd happily buy the red ostrich as well. Enjoy your bags, ladies! I know I'm enjoying mine. :)

This is the cutest purse. It’s the perfect size it’s strong. It’s well-made and I’m so glad I didn’t spend a fortune on something that was similar to this! And plus this didn’t hurt any animals. But it’s really beautiful. I got the gray. I saw it in another review and I thought it was really, really pretty. I never would’ve thought to get gray before, but it’s stunning. It’s very classy!

I love the shape and size of this bag. It is very attractive and holds a surprising amount of stuff. The outer shell is very hard, so the bag retains its shape at all times. The coffee color is great; the faux leather outer is reasonably nice looking, and it holds up well to the elements. The rounded handles are strong but easy on your hands. The color selection is fantastic, easy to match up to any outfit. The price is great, especially for the size. The stitching is good, but it has a few loose ends, which are easy enough to fix but were slightly disappointing. Aside from the fact that the shoulder strap is made of the same hard material as the outer bag (and is therefore not very comfortable), I didn't like how the it attaches to the bag: you either have to attach it to brackets on the same side of the purse, making it hang a bit lop-sided; or you have to attach it to the left bracket on one side of the bag and to the right bracket on the other of the bag, making the hand straps flop around unnecessarily. There is one open inner pocket that's perfectly sized for my iPhone 12, and there's a full wide inner zip pocket that could hold smaller or flat items.There are no inner pockets, but the medium size makes it easy to find stuff nonetheless. Overall, a great purchase - I just won't use the shoulder strap.

I love the way the bag looks. Good quality and efficient to hold essentials.

I was trying to match the colors in a dress and this yellow was not the shade I needed so had to return it but it is a really nice bag and I’m tempted to order it in another color. It’s the perfect size, seems to be of good quality. Would recommend.

For only 20 dollars, it is a very nice bag. It seems a bit stiff but I have only used it for a week. The zip goes far down the sides, slides smoothly, and allows the bag to open wide. The metal is quite bright and heavy, giving a quality look to the purse. I was looking for a purse that stands up straight, holds a fair amount of stuff, opens nice and wide, and this definitely does those things. The color is a very nice light brown. The inside zip pocket holds several small items: nail clippers, chapstick, pack of gum, eyeglasses cloth pack, etc. The other pocket will hold my bulky phone. I like the metal feet which keep the bottom clean. I am happy with this purchase and would recommend this handbag.

Love this purse. It is really cute. It is just the right size for me. Not too small and not too big. Love love love It. I have several like it in different colors I love them so much.

It's so cute and stylish. Exactly the style I wanted. Not too big, not too small, but fits a good amount inside. Tempted to get more colors.

Quería una bolsa color verde y no la conseguía en tiendas. Esta linda, solo que ligeramente la siento pequeña. En cuanto a calidad esta bien.El modelo ayuda mucho, ya que a pesar del tamaño (forma de maletita) caben bien mis cosas. En general esta linda.

Die Tasche ist wunderschön. Gute Verarbeitung und es passt mehr rein, als man denkt. Ich benutze sie sehr gerne, sie wirkt sehr hochwertig! Sehr gut für den Preis!!!

This bag is a real workhorse.Long crossbody strap. Easy access to the bag via the long zip. This bag holds a surprisingly large amount of stuff. It has feet. Well made. A great dupe for an LV Alma.

Muy bonito color y material la recomiendo
