KiplingElysia Printed Shoulder Bag

I LOVE this bag. It’s got so many storage options. The one thing that I really love about it is the lining. The lining is bright pink so you can see everything that is in this pocketbook. The material seems to be very sturdy. I like the idea of short straps and the longer straps so you can wear it as a crossbody if so desired. It’s also very lightweight and the style is spot on.

I have this same bag in a couple of other colors.Basically, it's perfect.LightweightHolds a tonTons of compartments of all types (zipped, snapped, or open)Wears like ironCan be washed if it gets dirtyJust the right sizeThe only thing that's different from my older ones is they no longer have a sew-in key fob inside the main compartment. I actually miss that, as I kept my spare keys attached to it, so I knew I always had a set on hand. But, that's the only change, the rest is the same, and it's a great pocketbook.

I now have three Elysia crossbody purses: Grey Gris for summer, solid black for travel, and this one will be for Fall/Winter. The pattern on this purse is absolutely beautiful. Every compartment is lined in gray, so I can see inside! No more black hole!!The size is perfect - it fits everything that I want in a purse. And it looks great too! The shoulder straps are super-comfortable. The crossbody strap is comfortable too, but I am replacing it with a guitar-style strap because I have shoulder/neck pain and the thicker strap distributes the weight better. (I buy my straps from Art Tribute here on Amazon. They are high-quality...you get what you pay for.)Speaking of weight...these purses are so wonderfully light! I carry a wallet, phone, pencil case, two eyeglass cases, house keys in a case, car key/fob in a case, snacks, hand sanitizer, hand wipes, small water bottle, gum, UV arm sleeves, and tissue. The purse still is not heavy.I love this style and cannot wait to pick out a color for next Spring.

I like that the bag has a lot of compartments and I know where everything is. I don't have to search around in it. It has a nice design. It's lightweight and durable.

I LOVE this bag. I needed a lightweight bag that I can wear crossbody - or not. I’ve had a hard time finding one that was not overly large, but was large enough for my essentials (sunglasses, glasses, eye drops, hard candy, wallet, earbud, etc) and still had room for the occasional additional items. Most I've found have been just a tad too small, way too big, and/or are poorly designed.This bag was the perfect combination to meet my very picky needs. It has outside pockets, a large center zipped area. Handles to carry in you hand / over your arm. A long adjustable strap that is the perfect length for over the shoulder at it's shortest or crossbody at it's longest. The strap has enough grip that it stays put rather than sliding off my shoulder or into my neck. The inside has a zipper pocket on one side and a couple of patch pockets, perfect for business cards, pen, gloss, small power bank, etc.I love it and will definitely buy other colors.

In 2007, I was gifted my first Kippling bag. In 2024, I still use that exact same purse when traveling. The first thing I do when I unpackaged them, is find all the pockets! This one definitely didn’t disappoint! I also love how secure, you can keep your personal items in the bags. They wear beautifully, and I think actually might last forever! :-) In fact, I love this brand so much. I’ve been patiently waiting for the late Mother’s Day present. I ordered for my mom! Of course I had to get her backpack! :-) and the monkey keychain is just a cute bonus! Kipling, Keep doing what you do. you got it.

I'm trying to lighten up my purse. Good quality, lightweight. This one has perfect amount of pockets. Little larger than I like. Like the size of the New Angie Cross body better.Keeping it for travel or meetings when I have more stuff to tote around.

I started using this bag yesterday and I am in love with it. It is lightweight and compact, but has separate compartments for everything that I need so that I can quickly find my keys or my phone or my wallet.. I don’t like purses where you just drop everything into the abyss and then have to dig around to find things. This is the perfect purse for me.!
