Perfect size for every day use and as my personal item when I fly. I can fit all my essentials AND a book!

I love my little tote. I had a big, bulky purse that I got over a year ago and I had been trying to find a replacement for it starting at least 6 months ago. My tote is cute, lightweight and just big enough for what I need. The perfect find!

I love this tote. It is the perfect size. You can carry by the handles or as a crossbody!

I purchase this mini tote in a pattern for fall/winter use. I have the same bag in a green pattern for spring/summer and find it very useful. Nice size!

First, the pattern. TheNochi pattern is a nice gray pattern with white dots and a few orange flower like things. It is a good neutral pattern for fall, especially here in Texas where yesterday on the first day of fall it was 93. As far as the design. I like the mini tote. I like the ability to carry it either by the handles or by the crossbody strap. Sometimes in getting out of the car, one wants to just grab the bag by the handles. Inside the mini tote has one zippered pocket, a slip pocket for a pen, and another slip pocket, which unfortunately is not big enough for a phone or a passport. There are no outside slip or zip pockets. The problem for me is my size. I am only 5'1", so it just looks odd if I try to use the mini tote as a cross-body bag. This is solely a problem of my size and not the bag. A number of reviewers have commented how much they like the zipper. I don't like the installation of the zipper. When I am using the mini tote at check out, I find myself fighting through the handle straps and the hard sewn flaps that hold the zipper to get to my wallet or the pen or whatever I need. It's too much. As cute as the bag is, I find myself using the city sling more as I don't have to fight the flaps. I kind of wish there were still a few mini totes with snaps in your warehouse. I'd buy one at a reduced price.
