My Almost Perfect Bag........ See Photos~, This review is from:
JESSIE&JANE Designer Brand 2016 New Women Leather Shoulder Bags Handbags Black
The folks at Jessie&Jane were kind enough to provide me with this leather bag (in Black) in exchange for sharing my unbiased review...
This is my favorite new bag! The black color arrived as pictured, smelled like new leather, and feels good in my hands. It's the closest thing to "the perfect purse" I've found so far and that's even over my Coach purses.
I don't normally review products without testing them out for long but was excited about this bag. (So I can't speak to how it holds up long-term yet but will update this review should it not hold up well.)
The reason I love it so much is primarily because of it's size (I'm pretty picky though), weight, and handles/ strap design. Also love that it's a matte leather (patent leather is nice on occasion but not my first preference) so it's classy and not flashy for every day use.
The only thing missing that I'm used to having is an outside pocket but I think not having one provides a clean, simple look.
All of the seams are in tact and the handles, strap, and zippers all seem well made. It feels like a good quality product and for currently under $83, I'd say this is an excellent value.
It arrived with a purse bag, perfect for travel or while not in use. I think any lady would love to receive this as a gift. So many bags I've seen online are listed as leather... Until you find somewhere in the description that they're actually faux or PU leather (fake or polyurethane). This here is the real deal!
I'd recommend keeping the leather clean and supple (also beautiful and lasting for a long time) by using a good leather cleaner and conditioner. If you don't have any or want to buy any, you can use a soft cloth with a bit of mild baby soap and a few drops of vinegar. Another solution that works is a soft cloth dampened with a little lemon essential oil. Aside from a fresh scent, it'll help prevent any cracks in the leather over time.
The shape is exactly as pictured in the product photos. If you're wanting a bag you can put a file or portfolio in sideways (with other items in the bag), then this isn't it, although it's close. You can fit one in vertically though it'll be sticking out.
When full, it doesn't look lumpy, and I'm mildly OCD, lol. It nicely keeps it's shape whether empty or full and it makes it easy to find things. I prefer a lighter interior color rather than black but the good far outweighs the bad so I'm happy.
The zipper pocket inside on one side of the bag is large enough for my HTC One M8 cell phone and car keys with room to spare (but I keep personal items there).
The center zipper pocket divides the length of the interior of the purse and fits my power bank, phone, and more. For reference, the center zipper pocket doesn't fit my 'pouchee' purse organizer...
It does easily fit in the larger area of the bag with plenty of room to spare for glass cases, etc. If you're interested and unfamiliar, this is the one I use, love, and would recommend to others (as it makes switching purses super easy and convenient), Pouchee Purse Organizer Black Cotton
(I've reviewed it with photos on the product page there).
Love that I can zip the whole bag closed when I'd prefer to not have a whole lot visible or don't want anything to fall out if in the car or something. The two interior slip pockets are deep enough for pens and wide enough for large cell phones and then some.
It's not super light but not heavy either. Handle drop is perfect for my preference at 5'2" (on the tightest adjustment for shoulder wear or looser for crossbody). It comfortably lands above the hip and I can wear it over my shoulder even with the thickest coat on.
Having handles is awesome for when you just want to grab your bag and not by a long strap. I have crossbody Baggallini bags that fail for me because of not having the second set of handles.
Definitely recommend this bag to others! Uploading some photos so you can get a closer look and see it upon arrival along with in use. Smile. Hope this is helpful!
