Some stitches came loose (on the rear zipper compartment) before I even got a chance to take off the tags, weep ...<br /><br />Pros:<br />- light colored lining<br />- the myriad of compartments are good for organizing small flat objects (band-aids, tiny eye-drop bottles, ..)<br />- internal organization in the middle compartment<br /><br />Cons:<br />- stitches came loose while purse was still NEW<br />- shoulder strap too narrow to wear comfortably<br />- no quick access / drop-in pockets for keys or phone<br />- compartments are no good for anything with thickness. Say, a flat camera by itself is okay, but not with a minimally padded case -- it will overstuff the bag<br />- front and back zippered compartments are identical. If they were different I won't have to open both to find things<br />- no pen holder<br />- no organization in the front and back zippered compartments. For such a small bag all the little things roll to the bottom<br />- rear slip pocket is rarely in use except to hold a tissue, or a pen<br /><br />Some reviewers are probably right : making it 1&#34; thicker (front to back) will improve it dramatically. This is not a drop and go purse. It requires careful consideration on what to put in it and where!
