This is the perfect bag for my small frame. I am 5'5" size 0 and get swallowed by even the Rebecca Minkoff MAB Mini. This is the right size, and because I do not carry much in my purse beyond my bag, phone, and wallet, it is not too heavy for me. It's cute and not too flashy; I see it being versatile in casual and more dressed up styles, too. A bit of a splurge, but it's definitely become a staple in my closet.

Heavy to carry around, stitching falls apart, zipper to hard to open and close....no point in getting this bag. when you spend this much money, should be less difficult to use and enjoy. not thought out well.

Fashion Piece but NOT an Everyday Bag
PostedDecember 3, 2012
Prosfashionable, uncomfortable, heavy
IF you got the money to splurge, then go for it. Alexander Wang Rockie and Rocco bags are a must-have because it is such a classic and edgy and can almost pair up with any outfits but if you are looking for an everyday bag (spacious, toss it around, wear it in the rain, errand bag) it is not the one. First of all, I am petite and I already find this Rockie heavy (so imagine if I carried the Rocco). The round zipper is really hard to unzip and zip, therefore, if you use it everyday and pull things out frequently, you will find it painful. The studs at the bottom adds a LOT of weight to it. Using a long wallet or adding a pair of sunglasses will add more. Overall, my experience has told me that this bag is not suitable for an everyday bag and it is not worth the price if you have been saving up for a durable/long-lasting designer bag.

Love the look, but there are design issues.

Proscute, not functional
The pebbled leather looks so wonderful. I love wearing it crossbody, but on the very first wear, the stitching on the leather tab (connecting hardware to strap) began to unravel. By day 2, some of the stitching completely popped. I ended up removing the stitching altogether, which exposes the little stitching holes. There's still another row of stitching which seems to be placed in an area that causes less stress on the tab, so it is still connected.
It is quite small-think lv speedy 25 small ( it may be a wee bit bigger, but not by much). So if you usually carry spacious bags, prepare yourself to streamline your necessities.
The half moon zip is really nice aesthetically, but zipping it is a pain, and the bag can be difficult to get in and out of.
