Reviews

Too small, unable to return

"I found this bag to be smaller than expected (I'm replacing one of similar size but it seems to have room for more stuff. ) I also was disappointed that I couldn't return it even for an exchange, it will be going to any consignment store that will take it. Finally, the big gold zipper is a bit silly, the covered black zippers look much better."

Perfect Travel Backpack

"This is an elegant, well made backpack perfect for travel, daily errands, or going into the office. A tablet fits in it well but probably not a laptop. The material is water resistant, wipes clean and is a strong material. Quality hardwear and it's stitched well. Love this bag!"

— Michael W. (5/5)

Not as expected. . .

"If you're looking for a cross between a purse and a backpack for commuting, this is the one for you. . . unfortunately it's not what I was hoping for. I ordered the closest thing to my Hanover Backpack from 2019, and this bag is significantly smaller. Everyone in my family quoted Zoolander to comment on the size, and after doing the initial load, I reluctantly sent it back due to capacity issues. I'll always love and vouch for this company for their quality and simple details (hence five stars), but my search for a simple backpack with classy lines continues. . ."

— Nan P. (5/5)

"The bag is well made, but be cautious if you don’t have a very slim MacBook. My standard 13" Lenovo laptop does not fit in the compartment in a way that allows the bag to close, despite the description stating it fits up to a 13" laptop. Customer service explained the sizing is based on diagonal screen measurement. Worth knowing before purchasing, especially since final sale items aren’t eligible for returns."

Cute little backpack

"This is a well made stylish little daypack. I though it would fit my laptop - I didn't focus on the dimensions, but it's useful when I'm gone for the day and need something larger than a purse."

— Chev F. (5/5)

Wonderful bag!

"Wonderful bag!"

— Elsie L. (5/5)

Very good quality and not

"Very good quality and not too big"

— Michelle G. (5/5)

Great small backpack!

"Great small backpack that fits just the essentials, wish it was a tad bigger to be the perfect size. I don’t pack much and I drive to work, so this is able to fit just what I need at work. My 13 inch MacBook Air, charger and cable, card case wallet, coin purse, keys, small bag of toiletries/meds etc, hand cream, hand sanitizer, sunglasses, AirPods. I am able to fit my 24 oz Owala Freesip, too, but that’s when the backpack starts getting at capacity. I am only 5’1” so this backpack size is perfect for me, as most backpacks are too bulky and long for my short torso."

Q&A

Will this bag fit a Lenovo Thinkpad? Dimensions (H x W x D)are 0.75" x 9.25" x 13.03”.: Hi Alexa, For the Beacon device fit will be (W10 x D12.25), 13" laptop will only fit the Beacon and it looks like only a little difference from your Lenovo Thinkpad. I would recommend placing an order and just incase you are not happy with the fittings, we can help you initiate your return. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
