Review on Melissa Shopper By Frye by Christy Ghosh

All of the marks you see on this bag are from carrying it for 2 WEEKS! That’s it. It marks up soooo easiest it’s insane. You can lightly run your fingernail across the leather and it leaves a Mark. Why would they make a bag like that? Why would anyone want a bag like that?It’s definitely got the real leather smell but it’s almost like it wasn’t treated correctly. It’s really veiny and dry and seems like it is cracking and getting brittle in a lot of places?The bag is absolutely huge also. Bigger than expected. Very cumbersome to take shopping even though I prefer a tote like this where I can just reach in. And Forget about using a purse organizer because it’s already super heavy and bulky. It really does feel like you’re carrying luggage.Also this is a personal preference but I don’t like the way the opening of the bag is kind of wavy. Total purse snob but I wish it just sat open roundly and kept a nice shape.The interior looked very luxurious in pictures but the material is thin and flimsy and cheap feeling and not sewn to the bag.I was so excited for this bag but after trying to love it for two weeks I just can’t stand it! And I was one that read the bad reviews with a grain of salt thinking nothing would bother me about it.Also the color looks better in the pictures. In real life it really does look dry, and beat up and like I’ve been carrying it for twenty years!I have other purses that are full leather that I’ve carried for years that still look brand new! For $200 you shouldn’t have this problem!
