Muse Cargo Crossbody Bag

This bag is a great, "goldilocks" crossbody: large enough for all your essentials, but small enough that it doesn't look awkward on your hip. The leather is soft with a nice pebbled texture. I was rather impressed that the designer's signature stamped on the outside of the bag is subtle; something I find refreshing! Although I'm not a fan of the extra long strips of leather on the zipper, it's a minor detail that is easily remedied with scissors. On the other hand, I really like the detail on the sides of this particular purse, which is an area that is all but ignored with most bags & designers. I also love the extremely sturdy and substantial strap, another feature that often gets cheaped out on other bags of similar size. The only thing I truly dislike about this bag is the bright gold and white interior. I understand that it's a designer signature, but it IS highly impractical. I looked at about a hundred crossbody bags online (of a wide range of prices and designers) before choosing this one. I feel that I made an excellent choice and stronly recommend it to anyone that is willing to forgo a "status stamp."
