I really didn't like it 
..... I have been hankering with you for a while, but I need to share my findings!
here
From the shelf it looked completely and utterly edible, I eyed it up from many angles whilst browsing the shop. It really pulled on the old heart strings. It sang to me 'PICK ME UP YOU LOON'. So I did, willingly. However, my first impression was of how thin the leather was, compared to the normal leather anna bag, this was paper thin, and I was actually struggling to undo the metal clasp closure for fear of tearing the leather!?! The assistant came over as she saw me struggling and I said I thought it would tear and she said to be firm with it...she still had to really pull hard and the delicate snake print was straining....
However I got it on my shoulder eventually and it really did look divine. However, 2nd disappointment, as the leather was so paper thin the shoulder straps had no guts at all and the bag kept falling off my shoulder, essentially the 2nd strap kept flopping down. I also noticed that with nothing in the bag, the base was not firm, and was already sagging in the middle - again as it was too thin. Packed full of my crap it would look like a sack in a nano second.
So, my conclusion was, if I were to buy it and have it on the mantlepiece to look at lovingly then this was a great, in fact the best purchase ever. If I wanted to actually use it, then it was a huge £345 failure....
