"Gorgeous"
Tried to get last year and was sold out. Now I have it. Beautiful leather. Outside pocket not quite big enough to hold cell phone hence 4 stars. Nice pockets inside and love the backpack feature.

"Nice craftmanship"
I wish it were just a little bigger all around. Not quite enough space for a water bottle AND a book if I?m using it as my purse as well. Otherwise, I love the design and the look. Super easy to convert to backpack, light-weight, nice quality leather. Just what I had in mind!

"The Perfect Travel Bag"
This stylish, roomy bag is perfect for those long domestic or international trips. It’s sturdy, but really well designed from both an aesthetically and functional perspective. The straps are comfortable, the interior has lots of pockets for glasses, tablets and other necessities... and yet its not too big, making it the perfect “dualie� - great for both formal events and other activities where a less dressy bag is more appropriate!

"Just as I d hoped!"
I had my eye on this purse for quite awhile and finally treated myself. I am so happy with it! I love the idea of a backpack purse, but don t love the bulkiness of most designs. This one is slim, but well thought out so everything I want to carry fits inside without adding bulk. And, the option of still being able to use it as a shoulder bag is even better. The leather is fairly stiff, so it keeps it s shape (I like that), along with good metal zippers throughout. The straps are also stiff, so plan to “work” with them a bit if that bothers you, but I suspect it would also make it harder for pick-pockets to slash through them if you are traveling and concerned about that. Overall this is a high quality purse with a well-thought out design for adult women. I intend to have and enjoy mine for a long time!

"Great bag"
Enjoy using this bag over shoulder and as backpack when needed. Only negative is that the leather is super stiff.

"Remarkably versatile"
Love this bag. Have used it for a year. Is still in excellent condition despite near daily use. Can be a bit difficult to access interior because the shoulder straps cross, but this feature also allows it to convert to a backpack, a feature that I love.

"Lovely quality; fits on the large side"
The batik design and color are just gorgeous, as is the sewing quality. The style would be very versatile to dress up or down. However, I am returning the dress for two reasons:(1) Even with the fit chart guidance, the size S is too roomy in the torso. The chart measurements look perfect for me, but the loose fit just hangs like a tent on me. It doesnt seem to come in a smaller size. To note: I am small but not tiny (I usually wear USA size 4-6 in other brands.)(2) Id prefer a rayon that is woven, not this knit. I like that it is lightweight, but find that this kind of knit clings in hot sticky weather. Cotton knit might be better, too.

- Dress up or down for any occasion

"So many compliments"
I am a senior woman in San Diego and I wear this vest often. Almost every time, someone will compliment the vest. So it keeps me warm and lookingpretty.

The scarf is long enough and nicely made. The vibrant colour warms the winter days!

"Beautiful, but..."
Beautiful embroidery only on one side, other side is plain -- see picture.Too big, why not make two or three different sizes?Otherwise it is wonderfully warm and soft inside. I want to love it but am ambivalent about keeping it. I would like to exchange it for a smaller size.

"Not as advertised"
The Good: The embroidered flowers are beautiful. The Bad: The flowers are only on ONE SIDE of the hat. The picture shows the hat in profile so its technically accurate, but kind of sneaky advertising. I look kind of weird and lopsided with only one side of the hat heavily decorated. Also, another review described beads and buttons incorporated in the embroidery. My hat did not include this. So Im disappointed and returning the product.

"Run small"
I wear size 6 but these too snug for me, with or without socks. May reorder size 7, as I really like them.
