This purse is absolutely TERRIBLE. The strap broke in ONE DAY after I took it to school with two pads, two pens, and my iPod and my phone in it. I wore it cross body and I had it off most of the day. Got up to get out of the car and the metal that binded the strap and the bag had bent and released the strap from the hook. It was TERRIBLE. I had to use a much smaller purse for the rest of the year and I couldnt even fit a pad in it.
