DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

Beautiful bag!

The Penny was the first bag I ordered and the quality exceeded my expectations. The red is absolutely gorgeous and it’s so comfortable to wear. I appreciate the real brass hardware. It hold more than I expected. The Penny can fit a pack of hand-wipes, small Wallet or ID case, my phone, reading glasses, lip balm, and keys.

Not a practical purse

I love the look and feel of this purse and the quality is great. Really no need to spray the leather but can use something to make it water resistant. The strap is convenient to adjust the length as well. However, it doesn't have an inside pocket of any sort and only a button to close it. I'd say that's the only complaint I have about the purse.

Best bags I’ve ever owned!!

I was gifted a 3 piece set of a gorgeous green set almost 3 years ago. I get compliments constantly on all of the bags. My favorite is the crossbody. It’s great for over the chest but versatile for a fanny pack style for outdoor activities. These bags are beautiful, durable, and long lasting. More like an investment in my opinion. Top notch quality!
