Zip-Around Saffiano Classic Dome Satchel

2nd time around: still a beautiful small to medium size bag; highly recommend! No regrets!
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. :)

Super Cute Red Bag!
I usually pursue genuine brand name leather bags, but the problem with these bags is they can get super heavy! I decided to try out this PU leather dome purse and so glad I bought it! The saffiano texture is perfect for scratch resistance, the weight of the PU leather is light therefore more comfortable to carry all day. The red is bright and vibrant and this bag is constructed well and good quality. So well worth the price!

Zippers make it easy to get to things without emptying
PROs:- Good color (had matching Liz [Claiborne] & Co. wallet already)- Good sized interior easily fits a longer (checkbook sized) wallet, cosmetics case, two pairs of eyeglasses, iPhone, car & house keys, miscellaneous flotsam- Wrap-around zipper makes it easy to access any area of the purse- Two good-sized pockets are trimmed nicely and hang between the wall of the purse and the lining (not just some cloth sewed on the outside of the lining and interior of the purse) - one held an iPhone 13 Pro with room, the other held three pairs of eyeglasses (distance, reading, sun in soft cases)- Handles are easy to use and also has adjustable, detachable strap that can be sized to make it a cross-body purseCONs:- Zipper is a bit stiff, but hasn't gotten stuck during several weeks of use, including a week of vacation that involved stuffing the purse more full than usual with extras (extra car keys, hard candy, tickets - hand sanitizer, etc.)- Interior is larger than former purse that had divided interior with 6 extra pockets, so added small cosmetic bag to keep flotsam from rolling around (Dramamine, lipstick, mirror, toothbrush, mini toothpaste, etc.)SUMMARY:Pleasantly surprised how much I like this purse and enjoy using it - would buy again

Very cute purse, but a bit stiff
I like this purse. It is quite roomy on the inside and has a nice, expensive-looking liner and a very wide opening when unzipped. It is very stiff, however. The zipper can be scratchy, when digging for that favorite lipstick that is always at the bottom. The stiff structure helps the bag keep its shape, so when it's fully zipped and hanging on my shoulder, it's a nice accent. It is not floppy or sloppy. Accepting the good with the bad, I guess.

Love it but...
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 love it!
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.

BOLSA DE MANO
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.
