text: I use this bag everyday as a purse and to carry my tablet to and from work. It has held up pretty well, but one strap did loosen and come apart from the bag after about two months of everyday use. However I tend to overload my bags and it was easily stitched back up. I took a few minutes and reinforced both straps with some thread and it has held up great. I wouldn't recommend this for someone carrying books or other heavy objects on a daily basis, but it's awesome if you need a little more space than a traditional purse offers. Really cute and practical!
