Another Oprah-vetted pick that's ripe for Mot? This hooray for all the color options!'103

In one of her annual roundups, Oprah gushed: "I lost count of this vegan-leather crossbody’s compartments. That's a good thing because it means it can hold all your essentials. And hooray for all the color options!"

What reviewers say ??

Some 1,400 Amazon shoppers are as smitten as Oprah with this cute little bag.

Pros ??

"Stylish, convenient crossbody," said one happy shopper. "The handbag has a detachable strap that is just the right length for wearing crossbody or on one shoulder. It also has a handle for carrying when you just want to grab and go. I love that the main compartment, which is quite roomy, is divided into two sections and that there is an additional outside zippered compartment as well. All-around great bag without being large and bulky!"

This is a "purse with purpose," agreed another. "I can get my phone, a small wallet and one other small item in this bag along with a car starter and a tube of lipstick. I've needed for some time to downsize in purses and stop carrying things I don't really need, which causes pain in my shoulder. The purse is attractive and perfect for traveling."

If you're looking for a small, go-to purse, fans say this crossbody is The One. "I have probably purchased 10 bags a year hunting for the perfect bag," shared this fan, explaining that "they are either too big and I fill them up, they get too heavy and kill my neck and back, or they are too small and I have to take 10 things out to get to what I need. This is perfect!"

Cons ??

Of course, while most fans love the bag's compact size, a handful wish for more space. One shopper wrote: "At first glance, it's beautiful. The quality is exceptional. ... If you have very, very flat items, they would probably fit, but my Galaxy S8 would not unless I cut out at least one of the fabric gussets."

"Small, compact and efficient," added another. "What I do not like is the zipper only zips one way. I like a two-way."
