Review on πŸ‘œ Frye Melissa Leather Drawstring Crossbody: Chic Handbags & Wallets for Women by Maria Marshall

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Tiny and a lot NOT to like about this bag/purse.

I bought this bag/purse for my wife thinking it should really be something at this price point. Wow, I was wrong. To my disappointment, my wife has never used it since receiving it. There are several reasons for this: Tiny: My hand is almost the size of this bag. In any case, it appears to be much smaller in real life than what is portrayed on the internet. This size makes it very impractical for everyday use. Sturdy Leather: The leather is not what I expected for the price. It's pretty tough. It seems that it should be much softer and more luxurious. Maybe it will soften with use, or maybe a good dose of mink oil will help soften it. 1 inner pocket: There is only 1 large compartment in this bag/purse. With the exception of a small zippered pocket inside, pretty much everything fits in this bag. Good luck, let everything be organized. That won't happen - Lack of security: The spring mechanism with leather cords works very well. It's not as secure as locking your bag/purse. Since the skin is very stiff, even the spring tensioning mechanism is not easy to control. Overpriced: This bag/bag is not very cheap. It definitely didn't live up to my expectations and the fact that my wife has never used it tells me she feels the same way. Keep searching. You can do much better than that.
