The bag arrived the other day; and I love it. I ordered the parchment which I think is a good neutral. The size is good and the leather very soft. I plan to purchase another for my ... (see full review) sister-in-law for Christmas.
I absolutely love this bag. It is a large bag and perfect for me. I don't like to stuff my bag and this bag allows me to carry everything I need without overloading my bag. I lo ... (see full review)ve it!
Love this bag. This is a wonderful Kelly style bag at an affordable price. So glad I found it on HSN. Now I look like Ms. Got Rocks.
As for the problem with the magnet closur ... (see full review)e, I figured that was an easy fix. Just ordered 2 really powerful round 3/4" magnets, glued one to the flat side on the outside, then put the second magnet on the inside of the bag behind the glued magnet. Second, I filed off the little protrusion on the top magnet. and viola, it says closed. Just needed a more powerful magnet.
it said it was coming with a crossbody strap. the strap was too short. The bag was too heavy to be comfortable to carry otherwise. Not for me. Going back.
Another winner for Helen! This bag is gorgeous from the beautiful leather down to all of the wonderful extras all of the Barr + Barr bags have. The unique black leather against t ... (see full review)he oxblood is a wonderful look and very classic. I am so pleased with all of my 20 plus Barr + Barr bags. So sorry to see Ms. Barr leave HSN.
This is my very first Sharif bag and I was jumping up and down when I opened the box!! It is just gorgeous and sooooo well made!! I'm hooked now! I purchased the matching walle ... (see full review)t and it's awesome!! I can't get over the quality and how beautiful my new items are!! Thank you Sharif!!!
This bag is stylish yet carries everything I need for work, school, and my kids! The bag itself is lightweight and does not get extremely heavy after putting all my things in. I wo ... (see full review)uld definitely recommend this as an everyday bag.
i loved this bag when I first saw it on tv and wished I could buy it, and thought maybe someday. then, lo and behold, it went on sale, got it home and...wow!...ft you love it on t ... (see full review)v you will ADORE it in person. the detail is incredible, with the 5 different leathers, it lightness, style, etc. I love it. Sharif has spoiled me against any other designer - he's my main man now!
I've Never spent this much money on a handbag in my life, but woman deserves to splurge once in her life, right?!! ;) When I received my Pebbled Zipper Satchel I was Thrilled!! My ... (see full review) 20-yr old daughter stopped by that day+was so jealous-she wants one!! The bag is a bit bigger & heavier than I expected. I don't use all the pockets-yet! lol I'm enjoying it+the quality is excellent! I use the handles as shoulder straps, so I haven't needed the crossbody strap yet!
I just made my last flex pay on this bag when the strap broke. I called HSN and of course there is not a warrantee nor did they have the color I needed for an exchange. This the ... (see full review)first and last time I buy an IMAN product. For the price I paid, it should have lasted longer than 2 1/2 months. What a disappointment!!
The screen print is beautiful. Unlike a previous buyer that had trouble with the purse closing, my purchase was packaged well. It closes without difficulty. I was thinking that ... (see full review)the purse was black but its an Oz green hue of black. Kind of odd. However, it remains a beautiful bag. I love the pink fabric on the inside. Can not wait to carry it. This is my first Sharif bag. I did expect the leather to be somewhat distressed as stated in the description but it is still a gorgeous bag.
At times I need a big bag...but while it's big...it's not huge or too heavy given the size. I like the security of a full zipper. Excellent quality and colors. Also, I like that ... (see full review) Helen provides two straps options...one attached to the bag...and one that can be used or not (also with adjustability). Terrific, timeless bag. Love.
I like the appearance of this purse as well as the color combination. I do not like that the strap cannot be adjusted and I do not find this purse user friendly
i always name my bags,and i named this one FANCY!!!!!!!SOOOOO ELEGANT!!!!!!!i got the purple orchid,and the black pearl!!!!!!!LOVE THEM!!!!!!!LOVE YOU SHARIF!!!!!!!
This is a huge bag at a very reasonable price. It looks terrific. But because it doesn't have sturdy internal dividers, I just find things get lost at the bottom of the bag.
... (see full review)If it had a section for your laptop/ipad/kindle, then it would be perfect, but because it doesn't, things just rattle around in there and I'm forever searching through it, rather than things just coming to hand. Shame, because otherwise it's excellent.
I did not want to pay a lot for an orange bag and usually do not like the "faux" but this one looks like the real thing and is made well.
It is very large and so soft, however, th ... (see full review)at you have to be careful not to lose items out of it.
I took it to NY and had many compliments.
Classy bag.
I liked this handbag except for the length of the handles. Would rather have shorter handles & an optional shoulder strap or an adjustable handle, although I know production costs ... (see full review) would be higher with either of those ideas.
It was cute & well made. Sorry it didn't work for me.
5 stars for artful design. Love the pink color, floral detail, black jewel treatment at the closure (gives a little edge to the pink), the solid lining (thank goodness not polyest ... (see full review)er animal print), stripped calf hair sides (very creative), snap closure. One less star for not enough embroidery. For $399 the bag really could have been all embroidered on the small space vs. being mixed with more painting than embroidery.
I really was'nt impressed nor was there any wow factor. The style was less than I thought it would be. The leather was just okay. I bought a SubO bag in Cosumel,Mexico last year. 6 ... (see full review)00 dollars retail and it ran a ring around this bag. The smell of the leather on the bag from Mexico is intoxicating, smell like premium leather. I have 2 CC bags that I adore. Bought 2 of these decided not to keep either. Just wasn't enough of any thing going on for me.
Not too small, not too big. Long strap to wear as cross-body, or shorten (a bit) to wear as long shoulder bag. The strap does not shorten that much. That is okay, because I have sm ... (see full review)all children, and carry a big baby bag. It's nice to have a cross-body that I can wear, and look stylish while carrying my personal things. The flowers are very beautiful, the beads too. The leather is so soft ! Thanks Sharif ! LOVE IT !
This bag is beautifully designed, very well made and nobody would guess it didn't come straight from Italy. It's absolutely gorgeous. Some of Sharif's bags are just nice, others ar ... (see full review)e out of this world. Thank you.
My purse is beautiful! I got the black and it smiles and says "welcome spring" everywhere I go! I may not have the prettiest garden in my yard, but I will definitely have one on ... (see full review)my arm! My husband lets me get my own anniversary presents and this is it for this year! Couldn't be happier! This is my 12th Sharif, (not counting the ones I've given as gifts), and still counting! Haven't met one I haven't fallen in love with! Love you, Sharif!
I'm a local entertainer/singer & expected to be flamboyant. This will add the WOW FACTOR to any1 who wants to get noticed. It looks VERY EXPENSIVE if you've shopped designer bags r ... (see full review)etail but I get the advantage of HSN prices-THANK YOU SHARIF & HSN! I own several of his bags. I'm an over shoulder user for hands free use, gotta be BIG too. Leather lasts since I am tough-these will take my daily use, mine must function not just be a pretty accessory. Love the sleeper bags for storing them GREAT BAG!
I have three parrots so of course loved this bag online. Liked it in person, too, except for two things: it really was too large, plus if you use the shoulder strap, the handles ... (see full review)fall down and block part of the beautiful embroidery. If it had only been the size issue, I might have kept it. Sharif should consider making both sets of handles removable.
This handbag is absolutely beautiful. My goodness the craftmanship is superb. This was a early birthday gift for myself. Everything is top notch in its detailing. Ladies don't hesi ... (see full review)tate with this one. Its truly luxury through and through. Sharif keep it coming. A fantastic job on this one. You did your family well!!!
I wasn't sure when I ordered this bag if I would like it or if it would be big enough since I almost always carry a larger bag. But I liked it very much from the picture and it wa ... (see full review)s such a good buy I went ahead and bought it. I love the bag! It is so different and pretty. I have so many purses but none even similar to this one. It is smaller than most of mine but I'm just using smaller wallets and carry less "junk". So glad I took a chance with this bag.
The leather is so soft and buttery. I had to return as I went over my budget on purses this year and I choose style over leather this time so I felt I could not give it 5 stars, w ... (see full review)hich it deserves. I just had to touch it one more time before I packed it up. If your looking for great leather this is it.
I was so excited to get this bag, but when I received it it was missing the pull on the zipper. I returned the bag and still contemplating whether I will reorder.
Perfect size, beautiful color, soft leather and a fantastic low price. Love these bags, just wish HSN was still selling them. Sad to see this brand go.
The read is the perfect color red. I ordered the black to but it is a dark blue and not a true black. Since I needed a navy purse I decided to keep it lol! Quality bag!
I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING SO BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED BEFORE. THIS BAG IS SOMETHING
TO BEHOLD. I USE IT FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS ONLY, AS I WANT IT TO LAST FOREVER!
Can't say gorgeous enough lol...I've been searching for quite awhile for a black w/ gold hardware quality leather satchel that has some structure, but is not too stiff. The search ... (see full review)is finally over...I am so in love w/ this bag. It's absolutely perfect. structured not slouchy when it's put down, yet it has a soft quality feel to it when carried. I am going back for the cream tonight. Will get any color that comes my way.
I do like this carry all. It is leather, but I think it's treated in some weird way, to make it feel and look plasticky. I will keep it, still wish it was less than what's on clear ... (see full review)ance price. Seems too much. I like the organization, the shape, size, the color. I like Iman a lot, her product is different, modern but classic the same time. I've also purchased her leather/pony hair handbag and it is even better.
I purchased this bag in the all leather rosette style a couple of years ago. and the denim version soon after that. Till this day I receive compliments whenever I wear them. So i ... (see full review)n terms of the style and shape of the bag, I was already familiar. The absolute STAND OUT on this however is the EXQUISITE lace!!! And the fact that it is considerably LIGHTER than the leather and denim versions. It is so feminine and unique. This one actually gets noticed by MEN!!! lol. I sprayed my bag with scotchguard fabric protector to preserve its pristine-ness.
Bought this purse as a gift for my wife. I hit a winner with this one. She loves how light weight it is, and how much room it has. Very beautiful purse for the price. Thanks HSN
I have tired a few Bar's bags. All of them had good quality and well made. However, this bag is the only one that I kept so far and the other one on the way (different Bar bag). Th ... (see full review)is bag made with high quality soft leather . I got the red and love the light orange red color (it's not too strong red) and go with all different kinds of clothes. It is also very light not heavy so it's good for everyday bag. I also love it can be adjusted with the side strings. Please make the removable adjustable strap drop shorter for my petite high.
This bag is absolutely darling. Got the makeup bag and glasses holder to match. It's beautifully made, very expensive looking, and different than anything else I've seen. The color ... (see full review)s will work with white, winter white and pinks. I'm also thinking of wearing this with a simple black or tan dress and coordinating shoes. Great investment!
I beg to differ from the previous 1 star reviews. I too have many designer handbags. Balenciaga, Chole, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Gucci to name a few. This bag HOLDS ITS OWN against ... (see full review)ANY of my other designer handbags that cost 10 times more!! I also own a genuine crocodile handbag. The croco emboss on this handbag is IMPECCABLE! I also like the cool details like the tassels, the feather zipper pulls, and the raven head. Another thing I LOVE about this bag is that it's super lightweight. I am so glad I tuned in when I did to see this cool bag. I was MEANT to have it! lol.
This Clever Carriage bag is really well made and great color. I`m 5`1" and I think the bag fits okay but I agree with other buyers remarks about the shoulder strap. Design wise it ... (see full review)maybe easier to use the hinges for attaching the shoulder strap but design wise it cheapens the bag because it will not hang right. Better off to not offer the shoulder strap or redesign the way it attaches. I hope to be able to buy another bag of this style but smaller and in denim with some bling.
I so wanted to love this bag, I found the zipper to be difficult to zip without using two hands holding the ends straight, the outer hidden pockets are great except, they too are a ... (see full review) task, and require two hands. I think the overall concept of this bag is great, it just needs to be fine tuned. the strap length is good, the hair calf is divine. I tried to work with this bag, but I final gave up, just not working for me. Sorry, I will continue to shop with C. Carriage. If this hair calf was done on a medium sized tote w/ an outer pocket and long enough straps, I would be the first to purchase. Just a thought.
yet another bag big enough to carry a buffalo. This is ridiculous. he could make this bag half the size and charge half as much. I really wanted to love this bag, but I can't keep ... (see full review) something big as my car door to carry. Really distressed over this bag.
I too was disappointed with this bag. First - the paisley fabric on the one side did not match the other side - it was noticeably lighter. Then there was the construction of the b ... (see full review)ag. The leather had a permanent crease due to poor sewing job. Someone described another bag by this company to be "too craft-y." I tend to agree - it's built like something that was made by a student for a class.
I Love this bag , I used to carry smaller ones until one day I looked at them OMG!!!. I thought to myself time to Grow up LOL And if you are going to pay this kind of money. I wan ...
