Ellington Leather Riviera Cross Body Handbag

I've been look for a better sized cross-body purse. Most are just too small to be useful. But this fits the bill perfectly. The only downside is that it closure flap isn't really wide enough and the purse gaps open on either side if the leather closure strap isn't secure in its loop. But otherwise I'm very happy with my purchase.

This purse is small to medium in size, so it's not a great traveling bag, but it is a perfect everyday use bag. The design is stylish, yet earthy and is a beautiful compliment to an outfit. My only complaint is that the shoulder strap is longer than I would like, and the double O rings that act as tighteners for the strap don't work well. Overall though, I love it and am incredibly pleased with my purchase.

I love to wear this bag over the shoulder. It fits all of my necessities. The cell phone pocket is great for keys.

This is an attractive and nicely made bag of good quality leather. However, I'm returning it for two reasons: 1) the clasp is not secure enough for traveling (the leather tab just slips thru a leather loop and 2) it's smaller than I expected. For casual use near home by someone who doesn't carry much stuff it should be fine.

A great looking, practical purse. I love Ellington purses and was just as happy with this as I have been with the others.

I use this everydy and am quite taken with quality

This handbag is fantastic! The leather is so soft and the color (blue/grey) is very able to go with just about anything. The strap makes it easy to wear across your body so that your hands are free which also makes it a safe choice when out in crowds. I love the look & function of this purse! This is my first Elligton purse; I will surely be a repeat buyer.

I love this handbag! The color (blue/grey) is so pretty and the leather is nice & soft. The size is perfect for me, just like to carry the basics. You will enjoy this handbag if you get it.

I carry this bag whenever I am not carrying my backpack. It is so comfortable and snuggles into my body rather than bumping up against my side and getting in the way. It is perfect for shopping and has really great pockets inside for cells, lip gloss, keys etc. This is my second Ellington bag and I know that there will be a third! Thought it would be a bit small when I received it in the mail, but I found that I actually didn't need all that stuff anyway. Definitely would recommend it to a friend(s)

I especially love the leather bags that are at least 14 inches by say 10 inches with larger shoulder straps and easy open flaps. Also love my leather "hobo" bag with the pocket on the front for my cell phone. Would buy more if I could find them. Keep up the good work, Ellington! Also love Italian styles - classic, not too youth=looking.
