Buxton over the shoulder organizer, August 27, 2007
I bought this organizer purse to carry while on vacation last week; and although the leather is nice and the purse is easier to carry than a shoulder bag if you pack it very lightly, I was disappointed in the way things fit in it. The inside pockets are only secured with a flap, so if you happen to tilt the purse when laying it on the seat next to you, everything spills out. Small items like lipstick or pens are not secure. One of the outer zipper pulls came off the third day I carried it. It's very clumsy to carry if you load it up like they demonstrate on TV, which of course is why I bought the purse. I would not buy this item again.

What fits, December 25, 2007
I bought this bag cause it looked like it held alot in a compact space. Here is what fits, it has a zippered compartment on the outside flap, it will hold something smaller than a length of a check book and I can put my fist in it but you probably don't want anything too bulky, in that you need to have the zipper closed or stuff will fall out. On the other side it has another compartment it will fit a checkbook size item, other than that it's the same as what I just mentioned. On the inside zippered mesh part, it will fit an item less than 3/4 th the length of a checkbook about fist size also. On the inside it has 2 seperate compartments one is stationary and that is the section that will expand a couple of inches by unzipping the outer zipper all the way around, it will hold about 2 1/2 paperback books and a brush on the side. The other compatment will fit about 1 1/2 paperback books it also has a zippered mesh compartment it will hold items about the length of a pen about fist size, it has 2 outer side zippers that will expand that section a couple of inches, but if you do that and fill both inner compartments the flap probably won't snap closed. Both the inner compartments have a couple of sections that will hold items about the size of a toilet paper roll. Yes it can hold a cell phone. the handle is canvas and expandable. So if you don't over fill the bag it will be fine, I don't know how they fit all that stuff from their commercial into the bag with out it being too bulky and unclosable. I like that it is leather on the outside and is over the shoulder and is compact.

I thought this purse was ALL Leather., October 2, 2007
Buxton USED to be a name you could count on for quality. In fact, this product is advertised as LEATHER. Technically, it is...it's 1/3 leather, 1/3 plastic and 1/3 fabric. The canvas strap looks like something that belongs on cheap camping gear. If you're looking for style, this purse falls in line with a large, cheap fanny-pack. If you have a burning desire to over-pay for that, then this is the item for you.
