It arrived a lot earlier than designated, so that's already a big plus!  It appears to be good leather, and even has that &#34;leather&#34; smell.  I chose a black leather, and it has a grainy leather appearance.  The inside is roomy and has an additional pocket inside the purse to put lipstick, gloss, small items or an iPhone 6 in an upright position ( because it won't fit horizontally).  It has an uncanny similarity to the Drew bag.  It's gorgeous!
