Title: mystery dimensions
Product review: As long as Amazon is unable to include the measurements of their handbags, ordering will be a fishing expedition. And like fishing you'll have to throw some back.This bag looked compact and was described as slim. I'm sending it back but thought I would measure it and post it for others who might be interested. The actual dimensions of the bag body are 16" wide and 9" high. Empty, it is about 1" thick.In hand, it's bigger than I expected. That straight 16" handle sits stiffly and unbended on my shoulder so the bag juts out in 2 directions. I feel like I'm carrying a pizza box.It also arrived with a small yellow spot on the canvas body. I thought of decorating the canvas by painting or appliqueing but the size is just too odd. Too big for a daily handbag and too small for a tote. Back it goes. But be careful as I see they have now added a "final sale" line to the product description.
