I'm not used to wearing a crossbody, so I thought it was just me until I saw other reviews. The strap isn't comfortable, and it's not practical to use this as a shoulder bag. The strap also often lengthens all the way to the biggest, and I thought user error. Not a super big deal as I haven't found ...what length is most comfortable and practical for me anyway. I am not in love with the pale yellow color simply because I don't want it to get dirty, and it's not going to coordinate with much of my wardrobe. However, I knew going in that this color choice was nonreturnable because of the sale. I think it was worth buying at around $25 including shipping to see if I even liked this bag design and size before committing to a much more expensive color. It's summer, so it's a lightly cheery and fitting color for the season. If I wear it as a crossbody and keep it light in weight, I shouldn't have a need to set it down much. I'm particular when it comes to bags, and I rarely see anything I want. I hate receiving a bag I hate and having to go through a return process or just donating it. I haven't seen styles I like much since the 90s and 2000s. I'd been using a bucket bag I am fond of, but I was carrying too much around, hurting my shoulder, and leaving myself open to theft by setting it down places including shopping carts. I wanted to downsize and am carrying less than half of what I was previously. I'm trying to treat my bag as a purse and not survival gear. So, I was open to trying something completely different from my usual taste. Despite my best efforts, this bag already got a dot of a dirty spot on it just from heading to the car the first time. Facepalm. I know it's going to be difficult to keep it completely clean. Besides that and the uncomfortable strap, I do really like this bag. The material is soft. Everything is contained with zipper enclosures. I can carry what I need with plenty more room left over. It's generous for a medium. Just the right size.
