I just got this bag and it is wonderful. It is long enough, wide enough, with a shoulder strap, with a top zipper, an outside pocket, and a light lining. I look for all of these things before I buy a purse. Because it is long enough as well as wide enough, one can easily open their purse and see and find their items I would highly recommend this purse to anyone wanting a roomy, quality, and very convenient purse.
