Even Better in Person
The bag looks even better in person than in the photos. It has a very effortless, relaxed look whether worn on the shoulder or crossbody. It is a bit on the larger side, so I think it may suit taller people better. I saw some reviews mentioning that since the bag is unlined, it may shed a little. I personally use a fabric pouch inside as a liner, so it hasn’t been an issue for me. Also, many woven leather bags on the market are unlined, so I think that’s fairly normal. Overall, I really love this bag and would definitely recommend it!

Interior Shedding
Was so excited about this bag but since it doesn’t have a liner, the interior started getting on my items as soon as the leather started to loosen up some. It took about a week after purchase and I sadly had to return it.

Loved the bag. Hate that there's no liner.
I really liked the bag: great shape, pattern, nice strap, and beautiful colors. But I had to return mine. Without a liner, the black leather was rubbing off on my phone case, leaving little bits of black leather in my belongings (like my sunglasses case, a compact I had in there, etc.)
