Piel Small Handbag with Organizer

Like the last reviewer, I'm not a purse carrier, either. I'm also not a briefcase carrier. But I needed a bag that could act as an understated briefcase and still keep my personal effects organized. This bag is perfect. The leather is thick and sturdy and very supple. It is big enough for a half-sized legal pad, mini-computer, and/or a book. The front section keeps my cards and cell phone in place and the middle pockets stash keys and other little necessities. And while I can indeed stow a diaper in there for my youngest, it certainly isn't a 'mommy' type bag. Looks nice with casual wear; looks truly snazzy with office attire.

i am not a purse-carrying type human...i stick my wallet in a back pocket and my cell in a front pocket and i'm good to go. mostly. there are occasions i've found that a purse might be handy...carrying a wad of things in one's hand when wearing a classier sort of dress (classier as in no pockets) is, to say the least, inconvenient. i searched a bit before landing this bag and it suits completely. i just took it for a test drive on vacation: easy to organize misc small bits just inside the flap, holds quite a diverse amount within the 3 inside compartments, the leather is very nice and will get nicer as it ages (my only wish would be that they had special employees carry and use these day in and day out and send you the purse after maybe 5 years of use so that it was already softer and more comfortably aged, like a good cheese), and best of all, there is still enough room for a yummy soft-cover book.

Although it says medium here, what you will receive is clearly labelled as small. When you return the incorrect item, you are charged a 10% restocking fee, and not refunded your "expedited" shipping (6 business days is not what I'd call expedited) even though the Leather Tree sent the wrong item. Don't do buisness with them.
