Does anyone have this purse?

Question

Or at least a purse of this size? I've been eyeing it up for quite some time because I'm looking for a good handbag that will last me a long time, and now that I have lots of gift cards for my birthday I think it might be the right time :)

I'm only concerned about the size. The dimensions are listed and I measured it out to get an idea, but if you have a purse this size, is it really huge?

Answer 1

I have a similar style handbag like the one pictured in your link.  The bag is wide (east-west) 17".  If you like a large tote/satchel bag like this one, then it is a GREAT bag.  I like mine because I do carry so much junk.  But, note that the bag is not that tall (barely 9.5") so take that into consideration too.  The shoulder strap may be a bit tight especially if you are going to wear a thick winter coat or sweater.  Overall, it is a beautiful bag!
