Review on Stylish and Chic: Freie Liebe Fashion Tote Purses for Women - Large Shoulder Bags and Handbags in PU Leather by Sara White

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good for the price I paid

The wallet is exactly as the photos show, with decent stitching, well finished edges, very nice thick leather and good hardware. The handles and shoulder strap are too thin (width) but they are the same thick leather (depth) as the bag so I can live with that. The grip straps appear to be attached with two metal bars, each with no sewing - not sure if that's strong enough for such a large bag, but at this price point I'm taking a chance. Only major downside - the inner lining is not sewn into the bag (only attached at key points near the top zipper) and is much smaller than the bag. In addition, the lining is dark brown, creating a terrible black hole effect (i.e., difficulty finding objects in light-absorbing darkness). go too far in the opposite direction and use white, or settle for dissonant bright reds and yellows - no, just no). The greatly reduced size of the lining means the opening of the bag is smaller than it should be, you cannot use the full capacity of the bag, the ends of the zipper are not sewn into the bag properly, at least 2 inches The unfinished back of the faux leather is exposed. at the top of the bag it is easy to get between the leather and the lining all around, and in the lining there is a huge open gap at both ends of the zipper, which makes it easy for things to fall out of the bag. I would return it due to the small size, poorly designed and sewn lining, but I paid less than $20 thanks to discounts, otherwise it's a well made and beautiful bag, it fits my use in size and color and I need it now lol. With a matching sewn-on lining and zip this would be a great bag - if the color of the lining were also changed to light beige it would be an excellent bag. Good deal for the price I paid and even for the current price. This is a very classy bag and if none of the issues I mentioned bother you then you will be very happy with it.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Minor issues
