Classic and sturdy

This bag is as beautiful online as it is in person. The leather is substantial and durable, and the bag is very well constructed. This purchase was a splurge for me, as I have never made this kind of purchase, but it really did not disappoint. I went for the medium size rather than the large because I am 5'2 and on the petite side and the large size looked ridiculous. I would have given this purchase the full 5 stars, but the only drawback is that the purse is on the heavier side.

Prosversatile, modern classic
I've been wanting this bag since Reese Witherspoon started carrying them three years ago and then they appeared on Gossip Girl. I like that this bag is designer, but not overly logo-ed. People in the know recognize the bag, but it is understated to those who don't recognize Phillip Lim, it just a nice bag. I carry Louis Vuitton bags often and sometimes you don't want an easily recognized logo.
I love the medium size, it feels more ladylike than the full size bag. The bag is pretty heavy, even when empty. he shark embossed leather is pretty thick and substantial. I think that it will wear very well. I like the crossbody strap, but I don't like the way the tail end flops when you aren't using the strap. I think the bag looks best when you take the crossbody strap off when not using it.
I tend to pack bags really full, so I purposefully chose a smaller bag to break myself of that habit. This still holds a good amount of stuff. I can fit a full size ipad, a large planner, a medium Longchamp pencil case, two small Longchamp coin purses, 2 Louis Vuitton pochettes, a full size checkbook wallet, a sunglasses case and a slim eyeglasses case.
Overall, I LOVE this bag and now I'm itching to get it in red as well!
