This bag smells and felt a little sticky or had some sort of residue when I pulled it out of the bag it was shipped in. Airing it out for an afternoon helped the residue feel but it still smells odd. It is smaller than I thought it would be, I was looking to use it more as a tote than a big purse. The strap looks very cheaply made and does not look like it would hold for long.<br /><br />Also as other reviews mentioned the front flap has the opening at the top of it and makes it pretty cumbersome to actually be able to open and see inside the bag. Sending back.
