Is this Danier too hard to dig around in?

I love the look of this white pebbled leather hobo, and I really want my first Danier. I am OVER and OUT with designer handbags, and this price point pleases the more sensible me.

Do you think a hobo like this is difficult to grab stuff out of? If so, is the bag nice enough to suck it up for? There was another style in the same nice leather in white, but it looked too much like my conventional satchel choices and I really wanted to try a new shape.

Thoughts? Thanks and have a great weekend everyone!

Ooh, such a pretty bag!
I've never had trouble finding things in a hobo bag, and it looks like it opens pretty wide. Nice price, too.

I'm no expert on Danier bags, but I have two, and I love them dearly. Great value and excellent quality. I think this one looks like an easy handle, and it is very pretty.

I have a similar Danier hobo bag from last summer. It came with an inner liner that you can unsnap. I ended up taking it out and having just one opening. I did have some trouble locating things and in the end used small ziplock bags but I am a neat freak. Here's a picture of the one I purchased.

Lovely bag! I think the solution is a purse organizer. There are many different types available, online and in places like Macy's the Container Store and Target. I love the one my DD purchased for me. I keep it stocked with all those "sundries" and just move it and my wallet from purse to purse. I have two sizes. One tip: don't get one in black -- it makes things harder to see.

I have a big bag and I use little pouches to sort things out: I have a pouch for all sorts of iPad/iPhone chargers and pager batteries and things, I have a pouch for makeup, a pouch for snacks, a leather folio for papers... it works fairly well!

That is beautiful. I really like it, and I am usually a satchel girl. I do think it might be a bit tough to root in, but if you put your stuff in little packages, not so bad. Also, Danier usually includes a key fob plus phone slot/ glasses slot in their bags, which I find helps me enormously.

suz, I'm a satchel addict and I know I need to have a few different shapes in my rotation. I can't believe how reasonable the Danier bags are!

I know that some women put everything in several small zip bags, such as Coach wristlets. If you don't already do that, it might help organizing your things. I have a structured hobo and don't have any problem finding anything. I don't use zipper bags, and I also try to carry less stuff.

That's beautiful! I usually prefer silver hardware but the gold is striking on this. I used to greatly prefer single strap bags now satchels are my go to style.

I don't have many items in my bag- wallet, makeup bag, fold up brush, reading glasses in a case and keys so I wouldn't find it too difficult to use. And it makes changing bags a breeze!
