I really wanted to like this bag. It was so nicely packaged. I love the color, the hardware, and all the pocketd and extra storage. It really is a beautiful bag and its exactly my style. However, since I’m looking for a bag I can use for work (I’m a teacher), I really need a sturdy bag that can carry a lot of weight. I usually carry two planners, one (sometimes two) laptops, and papers to grade, plus my large water bottle, umbrella, and wallet and keys. I didn’t
feel confident that the straps could hold all of that weight over a long period of time and in the end I decided that I didn’t want to risk it. I exchanged it for a smaller, every day bag to replace one I’ve had for a while and I’m looking forward to trying more products.
