I have been looking at Bostanten's bags on Amazon for about 3 months, along with others as I tend to try to justify my purchases. This company caught my eye because of the styles and colors they had. I looked at zippers, pockets material etc hoping I would spend my hard earned money on a lasting product. I purchased this blue bag, one of their matching wallets, and a makeup kit. I also bought their black drawstring purse with matching wallet etc for my daughter's Christmas gift (which I will review on that product's page) as well. All items are of excellent quality and craftsmanship. The leather is thick and the cornflower blue is a nice pop of color. I was surprised to find that there was a large removable make up bag of sorts inside that has interior pockets like a typical purse which I had not expected. There are 2 different straps you can use I preferred the multi- color fabric strap over the blue more rigid one. I have found a company that takes great care with their product!

Iâm in love!!!its worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY!This bag is amazing. Excellent quality. Came within a day of ordering. Well packed with a dust bag and came laid flat in a box. Gives you an option of two wide straps. I am opting for the rainbow woven strap first. It feels a bit thin so we will see how long it lasts. Itâs a little awkward to clip the strap on the side at first. Funky smell, but it should go away with use. Love all the pockets. It also came with an insert organizer bag which I am opting not to use as I wanted this bag to take files and folders in for pta meetings. The organizer bag is HUGE and has slip pockets and a zip pocket all the way around the inside.The other bag I was using was beautiful, but the straps were too thin and cut into my shoulders. This way I can carry everything I need for meetings (two folders, calendar book, pencil case, and my Bluetooth speaker -to use at pta lunches and events. ) I can also slip my phone (iPhone 8 plus) in the outside pockets along with all my purse essentials so I donât have to carry a separate purse as well. The slip pockets on the outside have magnetic snaps. One magnetic snap on the main opening inside of the bag. Great to hold my files and laptop and to prevent everything sliding out onto the floor of my car (like what would happen in my other bag- shown in the photos brown bag)It could even hold more Iâm sure if I really wanted to load it down. Couldnât be happier. The quality is amazing and itâs so cute! Beautiful bucket bag. I wasnât sure if it would be large enough at first to hold files, but itâs perfect. I could also take a slim Mac book pro as well. Bag has deep side pockets all the way around. Has enough structure to stand up on its own even loaded down with essentials AND the Mac book pro inside.I have several other bostenten bags already and have never had a problem with any of them -backpacks, hobo bag etc. looking forward to a fun year on pta!

The bag surprised me! It is very soft and fits well over my shoulder, not too high up into my arm pit. The only thing that could make this bag get 5 stars is if it had a built in compartment that could fit a phone and another for a small wallet. Its a deep bag, so using the insert zipper bag is helpful for sure.

This purse is perfect. I bought it to give as a gift for Christmas, but I can't bear to give it away. I can picture it as my go to bag this summer with a flirty sundress and a floppy straw hat. The alternate strap adds a bit more bohemian chic. The leather is smooth and soft and there is plenty of room inside. The best part is the inside pouch is removable. For a disorganized gal it's perfect because you can remove it to get a better look inside. Love it.

Ugh...I'm so glad I bought this. Finally, reading a million reviews on all the look alike a paid off. This bag is actually leather, and a decent quality for the price. I carry my laptop, cord, work papers, wallet, phone etc with a wee bit of room left for more.

Gorgeous Roomy Tote Bag ... deliciously soft leather, beautiful shade of light blue, great quality and workmanship. I also love the magnetic snaps used as a closure for the main compartment as well as for the 2 large exterior pockets, as well as the choice of 2 straps to interchange. Finally, I particularly like the fact that there's a separate bag / insert with a zipper so that I can safely carry my I-Phone, wallet, and keys, etc., with plenty of internal space on either side of the removable insert to put in other items. Ultimately, a terrific value for such a classy very tote!.

Great purse/bag!! LOVE IT! I have purchased Michael Kors and other top brands because i like to change my bag/purse often:). I am super impressed with this bag. It is the leather that I have been looking for. Soft but yet holds its shape and is easily accessible to get to everything that has fell to the bottom. You will not be disappointed! A nice bonus is that you can change the handle to the colorful fabric one or use the blue leather that matches the purse. I have had numerous compliments. It is truly a great purse and I will start searching for another from this same brand. Thank you!

Beautiful soft leather handbag in a pale blue/teal colour - exactly what I was looking for. Two handles, interchangeable, one to match the blue leather, the other a woven colourful Aztec type of design. The bag is half lined (the lower half), and has pockets both front and bag and one at each side. It also has an internal removable bag, with a zip section and pockets for phone etc. The bag is closed with a magnetic snap. Itâs lovely, very stylish, and will be great for the spring. I think itâs good value too.
