I love this bag. It has plenty of compartmental storage. I store my phone in the outside pocket, my wallet on one side of the middle divider and a note book on the other. The middle pocket holds some much needed accessories like a charging cable, kleenex and a cloth to clean my screens and glasses. The zipper pouch on the inside side keeps the lipstick and other girlie must haves while the open inside pocket on the other side holds the keys a pen and receipts. Well made, great stitching and feel. I receive compliments all the time and asked where I bought it. People ask if it is the Walmart Birkin bag. Nope it is better. I bought the tan one and I am thining of adding one in black and red.

I've been shopping around for a handbag like this one, and there is tons of junk out there for double and triple the price of this handbag. This handbag is well made and has much space, but it isn't so big that all you see is a handbag, not the person carrying it. The hardware is easy to use and not at all stiff like some latches can be. I like that the bottom is footed. I selected the green color and it's a stylish forest green. A pleasant surprise was that it comes with a protective sleeve for storage.

For a while, I've had a smaller designer purse. I got it on a cruise because it was so pretty, and it kept calling my name for me to buy it. Unfortunately, the little bag wasn't big enough to adequately hold my life. I knew I had to get a bigger bag, but I didn't want to spend a lot of money. I don't mind it when I have to, but this time, I wanted a big, durable, pretty than unusual, less expensive kind of purse. So, I went on a Amazon search.After looking for about a couple of hours, I found the Dasein brand. I was impressed by the craftmanship and surprised by the price. I bought this one, hoping I wasn't going to be disappointed.Well, I got my purse this past weekend. I fell instantly in love the moment I saw it. The design is slick and totally looks expensive. The hardware is nice, not sure if it'll rust, but that's okay. I won't be standing in the rain on a daily basis. There were no spots inside or out. No rips. Nothing out of sorts inside of the purse. It came with another big printed bag for storage of the purse that I probably won't use, but it's a nice thing to have. There's also what I call a makeup purse that came with it. I've put all of my face warpaint in there with room to spare.When it comes to the storage capacity of this bag, it's just what I needed and more. I have two wallets, a makeup pouch, two sets of keys, two pens, a medicine bottle, id badge with lanyard, a brush, a full size wide tooth comb, a fingernail clipper set, makeup wipes, cell phone, and a super long fingernail file. It all fits, and I can add more stuff. Eventually, I will buy another one of these purses. The price is just too good to pass up.So, if you want a beautiful bag without emptying the bank account, get this. It's really an absolutely fabulous buy.

This is a very nice purse. It seems to be well made and the outside (pleather??) is a nice sturdy material. I took off one star on my rating for the following:1. Plastic Zippers - They might last or not. Metal or a more substantial plastic would have been better.2. Inside and outside pockets are separated by one thin piece of cloth. My phone is activated by touching it through the piece of cloth from the inside pocket. I would have liked to keep my keys and phone in zippered pockets. Unfortunately the zippered in pockets are on the same side of the purse and separated by this piece of cloth so my keys had to go in a different (not zipped) pocket.It's hard to find just the right purse. I'll try to describe some features. None of this is a knock on the purse. It's just my observation and preference.1. The purse is cavernous. I found my smaller items such as lip balm, a pill container, nail clippers, etc. rattled around so much they got lost. I put them in the included clutch. There was plenty of room in the purse to house the clutch with space left over.2. I needed to be able to fit my Microsoft Surface Pro (tablet) with keyboard in it. It fits just fine and the purse can zip shut with it inside.3. The purse sides and bottom are firm and it stands up with no slouching.4. There are three compartments inside the purse.* The center one divides two sides of the purse and is large enough for my wallet and a couple checkbooks - it should have been larger considering the area inside the purse. It is also made from some rather thin cloth.* There is an unzipped compartment on one side where I keep my keys. It sticks out from the side of the purse a bit which allows me to get my hand in easily. It is also deep enough that my keys don't fall out when laying the purse on its side.* The third compartment is zippered. As mentioned above, I would have preferred to keep my keys here but it is directly opposite of the outside (zippered) pocket and material between the two is so thin, I had to put Kleenex, band-aids, etc. in the zippered pocket instead so as not to scratch my phone or tear the material.5. It has permanently affixed handles attached which I had hoped would be big enough to move the purse up and tuck it under my arm. They're too short for that so plan on holding the purse in your hand or hanging it on your elbow if you don't want to use the shoulder strap. The handles do flop down on the sides so they're out of the way if you use the shoulder strap.6. It's a pretty large purse. Not big enough to consider a tote but at the extreme of what I want to carry around. I only use it on work days when I have to take my MS Surface with me.Overall, it's a very nice purse. I expect the lining of the purse and pockets to fail long before the purse breaks down.UPDATE: My phone does not activate through the lining between the two pockets. The issue was with my phone. Still, the material is thin between inside and outside zippered pockets.

The color of this bag is beautiful. It looks very classy and the lock is a nice gold. It has plenty of room and is sturdy. Love it so much I just bought another one in a different style, same company.

I LOVE Dasein bags and have bought several over the years. I love the look of this style and got this one. I have been asked TWICE now if it was a Coach bag! It is so affordable and luxurious looking I get it gave people that vibe. For about $55 mind you, what a bargain! I use the outside pocket for my small phone, lip balm and a pen. There is a nice zippered inside pocket I use for my first aid/personal essentials. The other side has an open pocket where I keep my gum and tissue packs. The middle zippered area is for glass wipes and hand wipes. That leaves two generously sized areas on either side of that. One holds my wallet, coin purse and glasses case while the other holds my readers case and my word search book. I adore this bag and know you will too!

The purse is absolutely gorgeous. I LOVE the colour - it is kind of a stone / pink /brown. It feels so classy to carry. The zippers work magnificently. The handles are superb. The workmanship and details are expertly executed. I LOVE THIS PURSE!

I was nervous ordering online but it is really a lovely purse. Sturdy, solid and beautiful.

This purse is surprisingly Classy! I’ve had complaints on it. I purchased the Grey... happy with the colour. The hardware is sturdy. I like the tri-pocket interior ... good practical size. Would buy in another colour.

Really like the look of this purse. I can't speak to the longevity as we just received it but it looks to be of good quality. Two things I don't like off the bat... The lock on the front. It's like a solid tin or something. The part it hangs off is the same material and the two jostle and clang which can be pretty annoying. My mom thinks she'll be fine with it (bought this as a gift for her) but if not we'll get bolt cutters and hang a different charm on it. The second thing is the lining of the purse. It's a kind of nylon and while great for cleaning, it makes a rustling papery sound. Again, something my mom said she can live with, as this purse has all the features she wanted (hard to find!)

Great quality! Was super surprised when it came in
