text: I love Kate Spade purses but they can be rather pricey. This was a great buy and it is so cute, the perfect size, not too large or too small.  My other summer straw handbag (Coach) was starting to show signs of wear & tear but I didn't want another Coach (they are beautiful, well-made purses that last but they are everywhere). I wanted something different and I am extremely happy with this purse. I hope it wears well & will last awhile because I know I won't get tired of it anytime soon.
