Contents:

• 13 Inch Floral Suitcase
• 1 Adjustable Bag Strap

• Instructions for Combination Lock

Pros:

1. Good quality hard case.
2. Has a convenient and easy combination lock.
3. Large interior space
4. Optional, adjustable, shoulder strap

Cons:

1. The company has only one other choice for this line of vintage suitcases. I would have liked more variety of patterns and colours since I loved this purchase so much!
2. If you plan on using this as your main purse, then sadly, there aren't many pockets nor compartments.

Full Experience:

I've found myself obsessed lately with rose gold apparel and anything vintage. So when I saw this purse/mini suitcase on Amazon, I had to have it! I admit, it is a bit pricey, but if you're able to splurge it is totally worth it. I've searched Pinterest, Google, Amazon, Ebay, Etsy, you name it, and I've not been able to find any other companies offering vintage suitcases with a classy-floral or shabby chic look that make my heart jump.

I was a bit nervous before ordering since the company, Trendy Bag, had no reviews and is not a popular brand. However, once I received my bag, I was completely ecstatic. As soon as I pulled it out of its box, I could tell how well made it was. It had a nice weighty feel and seemed quite durable. 

The Exterior

The metal pieces are beautifully coated in a smooth rose gold finish. The metal, itself, feels dense and durable.

The combination lock is a great example when being opened - once the correct combination is rolled and the button is pushed, the lock instantly snaps out of its mouth (Unfortunately, I keep forgetting how much force it has, so my finger has been smacked repeatedly during this review process lol. Make sure your finger isn't too close to the lock when opening!).

I love how real the decorative straps look from the outside but secretly they open and close with an easy magnetic snap underneath. The factory definitely didn't skimp on parts because the magnets in these snaps are not those cheap kinds that constantly open when you look away or make sudden small movements. This bag will actually stay closed!

The white leather and floral fabric used seem to be glued and sewn together quite well, in my opinion. I've pulled a bit at different parts and everything is still perfectly in place. The decorative, leather bag straps and handle even feel thick and indestructible. The optional, leather, adjustable, shoulder strap is a little narrower than the decorative straps, and therefore, feels a bit thinner than any of the other parts.

I'm still unsure what the shorter strap is for exactly. It looks like a clutch/wrist strap, but I have no idea where to put it. I may use it to hold or attach small things to my purse in the future, or for a DIY matching wallet/clutch.

The Interior

Inside of the bag is lined with fabric and leather, similar in feel to the exterior.

There is a lot of space inside the case, and a nice bonus zipper compartment. I would have liked more pockets or rearrange-able compartments.
