And it currently has one huge notebook, one huge textbook, a folder, a notepad, my wallet and it still isn't tough to carry :)</p> <p>Claire: I know, I'm so happy it does stay closed unbuckled... and that's a great idea but I think I'm okay with the buckles only because I know I have to unbuckle it once when class starts and then buckle it up again once it ends, it shouldn't be too annoying!</p> <p>Sarah A: So far, so good! I'll keep you posted :)</p> <p>Manidipa: The satchel is 13'' and the ella handbag is 9''. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-548082 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 03:33:28 +0000 lyn* 548082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a buckle-bag too; and I still make it work because it's sooooo cute I'm sure you will too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-548065 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 03:16:15 +0000 ManidipaM 548065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What fun! Both beautiful finishes. Are they different sizes, Kirti? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-548042 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 02:46:03 +0000 Angie 548042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks perfect.

So cute! I would be annoyed to no end by the first one with the real buckles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547869 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 23:23:24 +0000 fern 547869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, such pretty leather. I like satchel 2 just as much.<br /> I also like Claire's snap idea above.<br /> (Hmmm... studying my own buckle satchel) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547850 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 22:52:57 +0000 Deborah 547850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these are both lovely and very versatile. They look like the are very good quality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547842 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 22:45:14 +0000 Anonymous 547842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, it came! I love it! Can you wear it unbuckled? I would think the weight of the flap would keep it closed (unless you're on the subway or something and want the security of having it fastened). I wonder if a cobbler could undo the sewing and put on a snap for you, rendering the buckle decorative only. Just a thought. Love the pending satchel, too, naturally. You have great taste! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547837 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 22:39:06 +0000 Diana 547837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous bags! I like both of them a lot. Is the satchel heavy by itself (i.e. when empty)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547834 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 22:35:36 +0000 Mander 547834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute! I definitely need to start using mine more often. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547675 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:29:21 +0000 Sylvie 547675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both satchels are fantastic. Great choices!</p> <p>I prefer real buckles for security but then I haven't had a bag where I had to deal with buckling/unbuckling them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547671 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:26:35 +0000 Mochi 547671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous. Both of them. I particularly love the one that's on back order. Yay for you and your bag happiness! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547656 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:15:30 +0000 Isabel 547656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG !! I just LOVE it...actually, I love them both ! Great choice. I really love the fact the second one has the faux buckle. It will make it so much easier to use. I have to say that is what drives me crazy about buckle on bags. I just end up not buckling them.</p> <p>ENJOY !! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/got-my-satchel-and-want-another#post-547649 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:08:13 +0000 Kirti 547649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I received the Scaramanga satchel (<a href="http://www.scaramangashop.co.uk/fashion/leather-bags/for-her/leather-satchel-bags/small-wide-leather-satchel-with-front-pocket-13-inch/prod_1013.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.scaramangashop.co.u....._1013.html</a>) that my husband bought me for Valentine's Day I love it! I think the colour and finish is FAB and it has lots of space inside. The only annoying thing is the fact that I have to unbuckle the buckles every time I want to use the bag, but I knew that when I bought it and I'll get used to it. :P</p> <p>I'm already planning my next Scaramanga purchase, the Ella satchel - <a href="http://www.scaramangashop.co.uk/fashion/leather-bags/for-her/leather-satchel-bags/ella-leather-satchel/prod_2258.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.scaramangashop.co.u....._2258.html</a>. (See Pic 3)<br /> I have narrow shoulders and most handbags slide off them, so I love the idea of a cross body one. I also appreciate how this one has a faux buckle with a magnetic buckle, so I can open it easily. :)</p> <p>What do you ladies think of the one I got and the one I'm planning to get? </p>
