Cute, sturdy, good size |

| I have several of these in different fabrics, all of which are very pretty. I'm sure work wishes I'd do a nice, traditional black leather handbag with tacky brass hardware, but that's ok. The bag is the perfect size to carry everything I need but keep me from trying to drag around the kitchen sink. I keep pens and lip gloss in the outer pocket, powder and dental floss in the outer pocket, and my wallet, cell, iPod, hand lotion, and USB drive in the main compartment. I put a key ring on the USB drive so it can attach to the lanyard in the main compartment. No more lost drives! I do wish it had one or two more pockets, since I do tend to dig for things that fall to the bottom. Overall great bag, and the best part is it's animal free! |

LOVE THIS BAG |
| Rating: |  |
| This bag is super light and carries a fair amount of basics. I usually like bigger bags but this one is such a high quality, easy to grab bag that I find myself using it a lot. I carry in the bag: a 5 x 5 sketchbook, 2-3 lip glosses, wristlet, eyeglass case, Razor cell, 80G Ipod, keys, travel size lotion. These items do not make the bag bulky. The strap adjustment is great. I think it adjusts to 52" so it will fit over the body really well. It is great for travel since the main and front compartments are zippered. I use it for the basics (easy access) and use a messenger or backpack for the bulky stuff. Enjoy the bag - Reign Vermont is a great company. |

best bag ever! |

i've had this bag for four years and it looks brand new. i've washed it once or twice, i promise. it's the perfect size for all my stuff but small enough so that i don't weigh myself down with extraneous garbage. the zippers open and close about twenty times a day, still working just fine. i never fail to get compliments on this bag, which is made right here in vermont.
even though i need a new one in no way, i am checking them out now. |

Artsy, lightweight but cavernous |
| Rating: | |
| This is my day to day purse and overall I like it because it is light weight. But the cavernous, black inside makes it hard to find stuff and no outside pocket makes it irritating when traveling. Two improvements would make this the best bag of all time: 1)outside slip pocket on back for quick access to tissues, boarding pass, grocery list, map.2)second mesh pocket opposite cell phone pocket for bottled water. |

My favorite purse for any occasion |
| Rating: | |
| I absolutely love this purse. It goes with me to work, on vacation, to school, and even on more dressy occasions. Everything I need fits neatly inside, the fabric is beautiful, and it is very well made. It is very lightweight and even with all the stuff I carry (which is a LOT), it doesn't hurt my shoulder. |

My new favorite purse |
| Rating: | |
| I bought this purse for travel but it has now turned into my main purse/bag. I keep phone, contact solution, lotion, keys, wallet, multiple chapsticks and sometimes a hair brush. Have no trouble finding things and it never feels heavy around my shoulders. |

Perfect purse for everyday |

| received as gift and wasn't too thrilled but after I finally decided to try it before complaining I realized it is the perfect everyday purse. I've recommended to several friends and bought for gifts! |

| Cute, funky little day bag, just big enough for essentials and looks terrific with casual wear. I wanted something that looked nice with shorts and sandals and this works great. Material seems sturdy too. |

cute and more stylish take on a day bag |

| Great bag, used it on a long road trip and it was the perfect size and weight for jumping in and out of the car for moderate periods of time. |
