What's in my bag?

BOUGHT: HERE~ 

on Aliexpress

I've been holding out for a new bag, this one had caught my eye ages ago. It sold out however, very quickly. I hoped the seller would restock but never did. It wasn't until recently when I got frustrated with the size of the everyday handbag I was using that I started to look for one again. This is my first time buying from Aliexpress.

Shipping: Free

It arrived in a grey envelope, inside a plastic wrap. The buckles had been padded and the strap wrapped up. In two days it was processed then shipped. It took 10 days to reach me after it had been posted. It was in perfect condition when it arrive. Super happy with the shipping service.

Price/Item/Quality: $17.50

I am really happy with what I got. It is the perfect size for an everyday bag. My biggest worry was the material. The photos showed PU leather but the product description described it as canvas. I wanted PU and hoped that the description had been mistaken. Happy days, it is made of PU leather. The inside is lined with a canvas like material though.

(Hard to see in above picture) The bag has one main pocket, that is separated by a panel which divides it into two, one pocket can secure shut with a snap button which connects to the separating panel. In side the secured pocket there is a zip pouch and a small open pocket. The spotted panel of leather is also a flap concealing another major pocket to stash your goodies in, secured shut with a button. I'd advise using only this pocket or the main pocket for the things you use most, like wallet and keys. It can be easy to leave either open and you might risk having things fall out.

Don't let the compact size of the bag fool you. It can actually pack quite a bit. This is what I carry with me most days, plus extra things like keys and sunglasses. It holds them all well with room to spare most days. It is light, doesn't add weight to what you are carrying, unlike the old bag I was using. The shoulder strap sits comfortably and doesn't strain me when I carry it for long periods of time.

I carry detol hand sanitiser, Tony Moly: Mini Bunny hand cream, Tony Moly: Moist Mist face spray, my blue phone/money wallet, compact notebook, Tony Moly: Bunny lip glosses, Paul Frank Lip Smackers, Nivea: Lip Repair balm and my strawberry chocolate comb.

Overall:

I use this bag every day. I really love it. A bargain for that price. Now that I have had this good experience I think I can feel more confident about shopping on Aliexpress (so long as sellers have a good rep, of course). I would recommend anyone to buy this bag, from this seller. They were fast to ship and it really is a great bag.

Much love ~
