I purchased the cocoa brown color shoulder bag a couple of years ago and use it just about every day, it is a little bit bigger than I had hoped for to use for an every day bag but as soon as my 5 year old asks me to hold everything for her I am happy to have the extra room. I just purchased the sand dune color shoulder bag a couple of weeks ago that I will use in the warmer months because I just love the bag. It is super tough and holds up to the beating it gets, the strap is great to put over your shoulder for hands free movement. I have them both monogrammed and enjoy them very much. I highly recommend these bags.
I bought this bag beacause it is casual and practical, lots of space and it is the right size for me. I only wish that the strap is a little longer so I can wear over the head; otherwise is perfect. I used it when I go to the Gym and the Supermarket.
I have the khaki bag and I carry it everywhere and love it, but I'd really, really be thrilled with a black bag. I would think there'd be plenty of customers for the bag in black!
