This is just what I was looking for for everyday use. It's very soft and fashionable. The color is exactly how the pictures are. You can fit two bottles of water in both top compartments. I carry a Contigo mug everyday and there is more than plenty of room for that and a bottle of water in just one of the compartments plus many more items. They are both very spacious. The sides pockets are small and both the same size. One fits my Samsung Galaxy 7 perfectly. I use the other for hair ties, lip balm, a small bottle of hand lotion etc.. The three front zip compartments are small but big enough where you can fit credit cards, lose change, rings, (maybe) a pack of cigarettes. There was no longer shoulder strap that came with this purse.

I just received this purse today so I have not had a chance to test it's day to day use but upon opening the package I am pleased with this purchase. It was shipped promptly (I selected "free-no rush" delivery and still received my package 5 days ahead of schedule, kudos to Amazon).

The bag appears to be well constructed, well stitched seams with good, sturdy hardware. The liner in the bag is "floating", it's not affixed to the sides or bottom of the bag (only affixed to the top of the bag). Some people don't like this, I personally love it, it means I can pull the liner almost completely out of the bag, making it easier to clean.

The adjustable strap can be extended out to about 52-54 inches, which is great for us plus sized gals, at this length the bag still sits at about the hip.

I appreciate that there is no center divider in this bag, there are smaller pockets and one small divided section near the top of the bag but the rest of the bag is open and spacious. I purchased the bag, to use as a small tote during a cruise so that I can carry my digital camera, umbrella and other essentials without having to lug around a big backpack. This bag will easily accommodate all of my essentials and I should be able to get plenty of use out of this bag after my trip.

My only negative remark about this bag is that the zipper isn't the smoothest. Also, the bag looks brighter in the pictures, in person it's a bit more muted, which I prefer but others may not.

Overall I'm very pleased with this Snug Star bag and I can't wait to use it. If I have any concerns after using the bag in August, I will update my review accordingly but I am very happy with this purchase, especially under $30.

I have added some photos to help answer questions regarding space, hope this is helpful.
