I love this purse! It can hold alot and love the big pocelts to hold ipad.

I bought this bag out of a Kate spade store because I just fell in love with it and they were having a 25% off sale. I was hesitant because some other $200-$400 purses I've bought in past did not hold up but I had never tried Kate spade, so I pulled the trigger and I could not be happier. I consistantly get compliments on how beautiful the bag is (and everyone loves the interior design too!). not to mention, i've had it for about 6 months now and there is still no noticable wear or tear. its a very sturdy bag for my busy lifestyle of traveling so much and holds a heavy load. Definitely get if you want a sturdy, classic, durable, stylish, loveable black bag.

Well made carryall. versatile color, great for all year round!

I purchased this bag in an earlier season so mine is a different color than those currently available but the style is identical. This bag is perfect- it has the perfect amount of compartments for me to keep all those little things I can't bear to leave out of my purse organized. With the two bigger side compartments I can stash loose items that I don't use all the time and keep them out of the way for the things I grab ten times a day in the main compartment. It's big enough that I can put just about anything and everything inside for going to work, out with friends, flying halfway across the country without ever feeling like I have to cram things in or making the bag too cumbersome for every day use. I've used my bag for almost six months now and I am not exactly gentle with it. I tried to be considering the money I spent but the reality is that I can just be rough on my stuff however even with all the abuse I've put it through I have yet to notice any wear on the bag. The leather is still in great condition, the straps aren't loose or cracking, the lining isn't tearing at the seams or pulling away from the inside of the bag. All of these are complaints I've had about pretty much every other bag I've ever purchased. My best friend bought the same bag in a different color just based on my word of mouth review and she's just as pleased with her purchase. I highly recommend this bag!
