Got it on sale for about $200 (original price $495).

I bought this bag about two years ago on sale. I was enamored by the promises of functionality – the LED light inside so I can finally see everything inside. Alas, that light worked for about a month and then it stopped working, much to my frustration. And because it was final sale, I figured the company wasn’t going to replace it. Looking back, the cynic in me wonders if the bag was on sale because the brand knew it was faulty…

The bag itself is fine. I use it fairly often enough when running errands. The inside has just about enough space for my phone, keys, and sunglasses although it’s a bit tight. I DEFINITELY wouldn’t have paid the full price if I had known the interior light was going to be faulty.

I bought the bag during a period when I wanted to support small designers. I went on a total emerging designer kick, buying clothes and bags. And I’m very sad to say, that despite doing a ton of homework, reading reviews, checking out Instagram, none of products lived up to their promise nor hype. This bag included. I think I’ll have to read a bunch of “real” happy reviews before I can commit to buying from an emerging designer…Bee and Kin,,$200,5’5-5’6 5’5-5’6,Bag,Emerging Designers All Reviews,Bag,Bee + Kin
