Well made and roomy. The bag is a little bigger than I had pictured (even though the dimensions are included in the ad), but I'm not complaining. I wanted something to hold my cell phone, small wallet, my Kindle, and a water bottle. This has much more room than strictly needed for that, and is well separated into pockets and compartments. The seams are solid, and I love that the bag has a flat bottom and sides stiff enough to stand up straight. I had a hard time getting a good photo inside with one hand, but the water bottle is a tall, 24-oz bottle. It fits comfortable in a front pocket, but there is plenty of room inside as well.
I FINALLY FOUND MY PURSE!

I am constantly trying to pretend to be something I'm not --- Organized. This purse finally helps me pull off the charade! There is a place for everything and in my case, that means EVERYTHING. I have Toiletries, meds, hairbrush, make up, crocheting, wallet, tickets, notebooks, planner, kindle, phone, keys (2 sets), coupons, receipts, change, I know I"m forgetting something...but I actually have it all put away. It's big enough to hold all that, but not so big that it all sloshes around and hides when I need something. It's actually pretty clear where things should go and so I remember which pocket I put it into. On top of all that, It actually looks like a rather elegant purse instead of a backpack or briefcase. I'm thrilled.
The cat loves it too...

a very pleasant surprise. The purse is a lot for the money. I am going to order 2 more. It is a big purse with STIFF sides so it does not collapse on itself. It has more pockets than I need. A great buyUpdate - 10/19/15 - I have purchased the 2 additional purses. I still believe these purses are a lot for the money.
I am A Pocket Person

I wasn't sure if I was going to like this pocketbook or not--it was a choice between this one and another one I ordered. One was to be for me and one was to be a gift for my elderly aunt. In the end I decided to let my aunt choose which one she liked the best for her birthday. I am a pocket person, weather it is a pocketbook or weather it is with the clothes that I wear, so I wanted a pocketbook with a lot of pockets. And this one fits that perfectly! In fact, it had so many outside pockets that I did not discover all of them right away. I wanted multiple pockets so that I could organize and hold different things but at the same time allow me to put my hands right away on what I was searching for. These are some of the things I would carry around with me: My Kindle, my cell phone (basic), my clutch wallet, my wide tooth comb and a brush, paper and pen for when I needed to jot something down, something to hold change in, my lip gloss, cigarettes/lighter and my credit card holder/wallet type. At first I kept changing things around trying to figure out where I wanted to store things on the outside. Naturally the Kindle went into the back where the very wide pocket was, I finally put my basic cell phone in one of the pockets on the side, beneath where the straps are. There are 2 of those, one on each side. My credit card holder went into the pocket with the buckle on it, my cigarettes/lighter went into the Velcroed pocket next to the buckle pocket, and to my surprise, there was a small zipper pocket right behind the Velcro pocket, and even another pocket behind the zippered pocket. There was only one pocket inside the interior and I put my loose change there. The interior held everything else with room to spare. As much as this pocketbook held, it still was not too awkward and big to carry. It fit nicely on my shoulder and I had no trouble keeping it there. Oh, one thing I didn't discover for a few days, the large interior of the pocketbook has 2 zippers--that meet in the middle. I didn't realize this at first and was only using one zipper to zip it closed. I like the idea that if the pocketbook were to accidentally turn over then everything would be closed and could not spill out. I have not had the pocketbook for long so I can't testify how long it will hold up--how long it will last. I hope it lasts a long time because I really like this pocketbook!
I'm keeping it but I wouldn't buy it again

I bought this to use as a travel purse. More specifically, I will be using it during our family trip to San Diego and Disneyland since my last travel purse died on me.PROS:1) Cross-body design2) Larger than my normal purse so it can hold more when I am out all day (water bottle, sweater, etc.)3) Water resistant(ish). Because it is nylon, the purse doesn't absorb water into the interior if the outside gets wet. I have only tested this in slightly wet conditions. I'm guessing water will eventually soak in if the purse is in conditions that are more wet (Splash Mountain will test this out).4) Front pockets for easy access to cell phone, lip balm, etc.CONS:1) There is NO STRUCTURE to this purse. This is the reason I gave it 3 stars rather than 4. The 3rd photo below is of me folding the purse in half, while my stuff is still in it! This means that I am forced to zip the large pocket closed each time in order for it not to fold in on itself and dump all my stuff out when I lean over. This may be a problem because...2) The zippers on this aren't very good. They feel like they will catch or break at any moment.3) No internal organization. There is one small flap pocket on the inside that has a zipper. Other than that, it is a giant hole. I will be using smaller bags to organize things inside the purse and keep myself sane while on our family vacation.OVERALL IMPRESSION:I will use this as my travel purse. I like that it is somewhat water resistant and I like that it is large enough to carry a day's worth of stuff around with me. Given the quality of the purse I wish I had spent $10 rather than nearly $20. I wouldn't buy it again but I will use it rather than returning it because it is good enough.
Great bag! When I first saw it

Great bag! When I first saw it, I was disappointed because it looked really small length-wise, but it opens up really wide! Big enough for all my stuff and a bottled drink or two, but not so big that it looks like a laptop bag or messenger bag. Lots of pockets and made with a really sturdy water resistant material. Thick, sturdy shoulder strap, too. Couldn't be happier!
