i’ve been eyeing this bag for so long finding very few that caught my attention. i went through a few options repeatedly for months as i’m looking for a diaper bag that isn’t too big or too small. i’m only 5’ so needed one that would be flattering for my size and finally this went on sale and i knew i had to have it! one thing that set this one aside, other than it being the most beautiful one i could find on amazon, is that it had pockets for bottles on the side that also could stretch to accommodate many sizes. i’d need a place for baby bottles and my own drinks and this seems to be suitable enough. :)the feel of the bag is best described as a buttery faux leather which is alright with me as it’s cruelty-free for those who desire such option, it is more affordable though still a pricier bag, and it looks and feels just as pleasing in my opinion!the various ways to carry the bag are amazing especially for those who will be using for uses such as for a diaper bag!the only con that really stands out over anything enough for me to mind is that upon receiving the bag the zippers were split apart instead of zipped, but all i had to do was unzip the bag and zip it back up! i think it had to do with the craftsmanship as well as the bag being rolled up during packaging. although this would not happen on majority of bags especially at this price point. but as long as the issue has not yet repeated while the bag is actually in use or while in its proper unfolded form, then i don’t mind!if there are any issues with this once i begin using it i will update this review and hope that customer service would be willing to accommodate as i absolutely adore this bag and have searched for the entire year!there was only a very slight odor which is indicated in the description and nothing obnoxious or overbearing, definitely don’t mind it and it can easily be aired out once unpacked. :)there are many pockets and the front one is pleasantly large without looking extreme and all the pockets fit items without bulging out!the lining has been updated from the previous bags to a very luxurious satin-like lining that makes it easier to zip the bag up and look inside. :) also seems more appropriate in case of accidental spills.overall this bag is perfect for really anyone as it can be used for all sorts of needs. i can even accommodate carrying a baby blanket and sweater if i needed to as well as my diabetic supplies and snacks. :)excited to use this soon for traveling (personal item for plane), daily trips, and seeing how it holds up with frequent use!
