3.0 out of 5 stars
Would have been a 4 star review...., January 21, 2011
I would have given this item 4 stars, it is a good size for women who carry a bit more than others, if you are on the go, this is important. I cycle to work and it sits nicely over one shoulder on my back. It looks good, for a plain black purse, but that is what I like for my day to day life. Everything zips up so nothing will fall out of the purse if it turns over. There is no flap over the top zipper, which I find very annoying.
This being said, I have run into two problems. First, the day I received it and opened it up, one of the gromets that holds the strap to the purse immediately popped off. Easy repair, which I did, because, otherwise it was fine and it is often too much trouble to send something back.
That was forgiveable and so, it got 4 stars, now, it gets 3. One of the side zippers is not sewn in, it is 'heat set' with an adhesive. Now, not even a year later, the edges AROUND the zipper have suddenly and rapidy come undone. The zipper itself is in fine shape. I can sew it up myself, and will, but I should not have to. I can sew well and I would never use an adhesive, heat set or not, on any item, especially on a purse zipper that is going to be opened and closed over and over again just about every day.
If I grow more annoyed while sewing the zipper back into the purse, I will come back and give it 2 stars. Too bad, because whomever designed it did a fine job.

Spacious, well-designed bag, June 29, 2011
I chose to purchase this bag after a friend recommended the Eagle Creek Sidekick. I am an avid traveler, so I wanted a light, durable, packable bag that would pop back to life after being squished at the bottom of my backpack. This bag is it! The Bohemian is lighter and roomier than the Sidekick, with almost as many handy pockets and no extraneous stuff (like a fanny pack belt. That bag is far too large to wear as a fanny pack). I'm a big fan of the side sunglasses pocket and the soft jewelry/iPod pocket. The zipper lock sets my mind at ease in big, crowded, pick pocket-ridden markets and public transport. The organizational system is very well designed. This bag fits all my essentials for the day: 27 oz water bottle, rain jacket, wallet, camera, phone, books, maps, and all the little stuff that makes its way in. I used to carry a small backpack when wandering around a city for the day, but this is less obtrusive, more stylish, and more secure.
One thing though: I thought that this would make a great everyday purse, but the size, shape, and material aren't quite stylish enough. However, this bag is PERFECT for its intended purpose.
