Size is great, pockets for phone and sunglasses are great and the zip pockets keep me organized, If it didn't SCREAM "I'm not leather" I would totally love it. It looks very plastic to me although the retro embossed pattern is cute. I'll use it but I'm not real proud of it. I have been spoiled by Coach leather but their bags are not as well designed for functionality and they certainly are a lot more expensive..
