Really nice, but.....

" I really like so much about this bag. It's well made, just the right size and organizational capacity. Then why only 3 stars? The strap! It's very narrow for this size bag and digs in. It can't be more than a half inch wide and looks like it belongs on a small cross body bag. Perhaps they have smaller bags In this style and they used the same strap. Once I put my wallet, keys gum, cell phone in, it was just way too heavy to put on my shoulder or cross body without being really uncomfortable. What a shame as I don't like to have to leave a bag on my arm. I tried taking things out, no coins in wallet. etc, then it gets too light and tips over from the weight of the front pocket buckle. I tried a strap from another purse and it completely fixed the problem but didn't match at all. I got the orange/pink. It's darker than the photo but still nice. Just so you know it's more like a rust orange, slightly muted raspberry and ecru main area. (darker than the ivory I had hoped for) Maybe I'm being too picky but thought this might help you out. It looks like a nice bag. It is a nice bag, just didn't function as well as I had hoped. If you don't want to use it for long periods of time like shopping and dont mind carrying on your arm, then it's still worth the great price. If I had a strap that I could replace this with I be really happy. It may have to go back :( "
