I bought this for a trip and haven't switched out my handbag since then! It's a great size for me since I normally use a small handbag. This one is a little bigger than I usually use, but has so many nice features. There are several zippered compartments both on the outside and inside, plus really nice water resistant fabric. The water bottle holders on the side are small. You can fit a 16.9 oz polar spring bottle but many other brands/sizes will not fit. However, those side pockets are still a bonus. You can fit a Kleenex purse pack or something else in them. I love this bag and definitely recommend it.

I know, purses are a very subjective thing. What works for one person will not work for someone else. But this one may be the best designed purse I have ever had. A large part of that is how many options it gives you.

I can no longer haul those heavy shoulder-cartilage-destroying bags around, and smaller bags have not done the trick for me. This one is not as small as what I've been using, but it is not luggage either. It is so well designed that I could use one half its size if it had the same features.

Tops has to be the three zippered outside pockets of different sizes. You immediately know what you should put in each one of them. E.g., my keys go in the middle one. They are meant to go there - perfect fit, logical location - and I will never again have to wonder where I put them. You too will likely be struck by perfect matches as you load yours up.

These pockets are reinforced, as are the other pockets, inside and out. You have several options for loading all your essentials, phone in particular. Yet these pockets do not take up too much real estate inside the purse.

It's well made and should have a long lifespan.  Very lightweight. An adjustable strap that is not going to tear away from the bag under normal/heavy use. For me, the perfect purse.

It's really useful. The side pockets doesn't fit a lot (I use them to carry tiny thing like mascara, lip balm, gloss, a padlock for gym and my keys, but it would fit a tiny umbrella and sunglasses, not a bottle tho) even so it's so spacious inside. I carry my 32 oz water bottle (with safe seal) and still have space for my wallet, a book, my headband headphones, my glasses case, a small umbrella and a pair of gloves. And it has a lot of pockets to keep everything organized.

I have bought several of these bags. It's a very functional purse and holds everything in an organized fashion. The only thing I don't like is that some of them have a canvas strap but a few of them came with a very slippery, shiny, satiny strap that slides off my shoulder way too easily. The strap is strong but tends to be very annoying when it slides down my arm.

Nice light weight handbag with strap. Plenty of pockets with secured closure. Not to small but also not overly large.
