Love love my new bag. Extremely generous in size, letting me take my handbag-come-backpack as my one&all bag for a 3 night trip interstate.

Love how easy to flip it from a handbag to backpack as I navigate the airport and busy city

When I first received the bag, I thought it looked amazing, but huuuge! I thought I might use it just occasionally, but no, in the first couple of weeks of owning it I have used it several times a week. Although it looks almost comically large in the box, somehow, as if by magic, it really doesn’t when you’re carrying it with things in. As others have commented, it looks cool, slouchy and very high end. And oh, so practical!! I don’t know if it’s encouraging me to carry more around with me - whoops - but I absolutely love this and will use it until it falls apart (hopefully not any time soon). Expect lots of compliments when you’re using this. I’ve had someone comment on it several times already. Now of course I want one in another colour.

I bought the Bella XL after spending a long time looking for the perfect work bag. I was tired of taking a traditional backpack and a handbag on business trips. This bag fits my laptop comfortably along with all the other bits and pieces that normally go in my handbag. I now use it everyday as it's great for carry kids snacks & drink bottles when we head out for and hour or the whole day.
