I purchased this and the Baggallini for myself, but when I received the Anti-Theft Cross Body Bag, I realized how great it would be for a young lady traveling to Europe for the summer, so I had to give it to my niece. She was impressed by the anti-theft zip closures as well as all the interior pockets and while she has many black bags, the purple I had purchased was a great colour - not too dark, not too bright. I think I may have to purchase another one of your bags and this time keep it for myself!
