Super tight and small
This fabric is so beautiful , and I really wanted to like this, but I couldn't wear it. This is a fitted, non-stretch top that's quite short in length; low cut in front; and tight in the ribcage and waist. Not flattering for me.

It doesn't close; I kept worrying I'd be pickpocketed!
I live in a big city, and this cute little bag doesn't have a closure at the top, so I kept worrying my stuff was going to be pilfered as I was in line at the airport, on the train, etc. It does have card slots built into the pocket to hold credit cards and ID, so I didn't carry a wallet. Pros: the leather is a lovely quality, rich and smooth, and the color, with a contrasting strap, is gorgeous. Cons: it's on the small side, it doesn't fasten closed, and I wish it had metal feet to protect the smooth leather bottom.

So unflattering, couldn't wear it
This dress didn't work at all for me. It looked busty and the style is faux-ethnic silly, like I should be serving up beers at an Oktoberfest or pierogis at a Polish festival. I couldn't wear it. If you've got a flat chest, it might work better.

Beautifully made, but the narrowed opening at top makes it difficult.
Heavy, smooth quality leather and silver hardware - you can tell this is a beautifully made bag. The opening snaps shut with a magnet and I found myself not even looping the red ties through. It's a beautiful bright red color, and I love that you can carry it with the satchel-style handle or the shoulder strap. In fact, I love everything about it except the narrowed opening at the top, that makes it somewhat difficult to get your wallet, phone, cosmetic clutch, etc. in and out of the bag.

Nice Jewel-Tone Sweater!
This is made from a heavy, slinky knit, bright purple on the exterior, green inside, that wears so well - nice drape, no wrinkles, always smooth and fresh. Cons: very long sleeves with giant cuffs were a bit bothersome, and I found the fit to be boxy and large. But overall a great piece that I love!
