Franco Sarto Hayley Cross Body

I've had this purse for two years and finally bought a new one. I loved how the purse looked. In addition to the blue faux leather exterior, it has a patterned lining that I really liked. It was large enough to hold my wallet, cell phone, and personal items but small enough that it didn't weigh me down. It also had the perfect amount of pockets.As can be expected with fake leather, the black piping along the edges of the shoulder strap started to peel away after about a year and a half, and the material around the zipper started to crack and tear a few months later. The metal plate with the words "Franco Sarto" on it was a point of annoyance for me. It was impressive when new but got scratched up over time and started to look crappy.

I was hoping this purse was a bit bigger than it ended up being because I like to carry around more than the essentials (such as a book which definitely won't fit with my other things). However, it comfortably fits everything I do need to have with me at all times. There are two zip pockets on the front and one pocket without a zipper, and they are wonderful for little extras like hand sanitizer and chapstick, but I don't like putting too much more in them or it is harder to stuff things into the main pocket. There are three pockets inside the purse, one with a zipper and two without zips. All three are rather spacious and nice to keep it organized. The material of the purse feels like a nice quality, and the color (I got "luggage") is true to what the picture shows. Overall I am very happy with it and would recommend it to anyone who doesn't need to carry too much!

I chose this bag because I love a cross body bag, that leaves my hands free, and one that doesn't put stress on my left shoulder (I always carry a bag on my left shoulder and it's killing it!)I chose this color too because my other cross body bag is solid black and I wanted something different to help brighten up my wardrobe. I like this bag because it is not cloth (no stains or snags,) and the strap is wide enough to not cut in to me, and the bag has just the right amount of secure compartments to keep my things safe and secure.My only wish is the that bag was just a smidge wider and that it came in more colors.

I was surprised when I opened it and saw the size. Some reviews mentioned how small it was, but it was perfect for me I thought it was larger that what I expected! I was a little shocked at the color, it was a lot brighter orange/dark coral than pictured, and I almost sent it back because of that. But the more I looked at it, the more I liked it. So I kept it and I'm glad I did! It has so many pockets that will keep me organized and you can't throw too much in it because it is very slim. I didn't want to put much in, just phone credit cards and a protein bar. It is actually pretty roomy though. My Kindle fits in nicely with room to spare and I am very pleased with that!

According to the product dimension listed, this item SHOULD be 11.9 x 11.1 x 3 inches; 15.2 ounces.However, once I received the item, I was stricken by how small it was. Usually when I read reviews talking about its small size, its my hope that they were looking at the picture. However, by the numbers this product is misleading. The ACTUAL dimensions is 9 x 9 x 2 (a little over 2). Of course, the bag itself can open much wider (about 9 inches if spread completely apart, though of course the purse isn't necessarily that spacious; don't worry).The funny thing is, the shoulder strap is over 40 inches, when it is listed as 24. Unless they were trying to say that it is 24 inches in length (folding the strap in half)...then its a little under.I still like the bag (it is pretty), though its not going to fit the purpose I was hoping it would. The ONLY reason it is getting two stars, even though I like it is because I frankly dislike being lied to.The material is very sleek, but it doesn't necessarily look cheap. I got the "Denim" style, which is a very rich blue color. Looks very much like the picture.

I purchased this strictly for the color and the all the compartments. It is a nice, bright coral with a perfect array of compartments for my taste in purses. It's a little too shiny but I can deal with it. I'm used to leather purses but could not find one in this color. My main complaint is the HUGE Franco Sarto label on the front of the purse. I am not a "label" person and am still trying to figure out a way to conceal.....even a little......this label!

I originally bought this bag at Fred Meyer on Black Friday. About two weeks later one of the front zippers broke, so I took it back and exchanged it for cash since they didn't have another one at Fred Meyer. This is a great cross-body bag with lots of pockets, and a quite large inner pocket that make organizing your stuff easy! I gave this bag 4 starts instead of 5 because it doesn't have the beautiful seat-belt fabric strap or the color interior that my previous bag did.

This is a great bag...easy to wear, has just enough room that things don't get lost in the bottom, but can handle my fat wallet. Can accommodate my mini IPad, also, if I don't have too much other stuff in the main interior pocket. Love the fact that there are easy-to-access pockets, both open and zipped. It's definitely silver, but figured it's neutral enough for summer to wear with anything. Hope they bring out a black version so that I can replace my just-a-bit-too-big cross body bag that I used this winter. (Oh...and it feels lightweight even with stuff in it!)
