Customer Reviews Anuschka 479

I bought this to accompany 480 (also in Premium Rose Antique), but whereas 480 holds all my knitting supplies and current project (see Zappos review), this East-West Organizer is my portable office/overnighter. Front zippered flap holds credit cards, ID, checkbook, pen, coin purse, and facial tissues, so no wallet is needed. (For security, I simply carry this side toward my body.) Inside, one zippered section holds my iPad, iPod, and their respective chargers, with room to spare. The other zippered section holds a cosmetic case and a change of undies. To tell the truth, I'm having trouble filling it up, with its soft leather sides and its little interior pockets. I like that the strap adjusts with a slider so I can go from crossbody to snug up under my elbow. Between this and the matching 480, I can take off at a moment's notice and have everything I need to be productive, amused, and self-sufficient. Thank you, Anuschka. And thank you, Zappos.

I just bought my first Anushka bag and some accessories to go with it. The products are incredibly beautiful and so well-made. It’s like wearing a piece of fine art. They are a conversation piece wherever I go. I am excited to order more pieces as I love the ones that I already owned. ??????????

Ok, so I had to have one of these works of art.... As an artist I've painted many things, but never a handbag.... These are so unique, and if you have your heart set on one, you might as well dive in. I looked at all of the styles and designs, they are all so beautiful. But decided on this one. It is a bit heavy as the leather is a think high quality, so this bag will last a long time, and I don't use it daily, but when I do it gets many looks and is very pretty to carry with just about any outfit. The artwork paint seems to be lasting, and the side pockets on this particular purse is nice to organize all of your cards, cash & everything you need... It's pretty roomy inside... SO -- Go ahead, you know you want one! =)

I'm not a "big purse kinda gal," and I don't usually carry my whole house with me the way some ladies do, but sometimes you just need a good bag and I really think that this is a good one as far as style and space/size. I also like the one strap, as two strap bags tend to flip flop over your shoulders too much. I usually only need my keys, phone, cash, cards & 2 small items of makeup when I am out, so for those times I am set with my little tiny crossbody bags, but when I am actually going somewhere that I need to be prepared for whatever, this bag is perfect, and not too big. These are all of the things I fit into this beautiful bag: 1 Full 4" x 7" makeup bag, 1 large comb/brush, a water bottle, 1 full sized rolled up magazine (or umbrella), cell phone & extra charger, reading glasses in hard case, smaller 3" x 6" purple Anuschka (that comes with this bag) zip bag with lotion, hand sanitizer, Tylenol, etc. And the outside wallet area is perfect for all of your cash, cards, business cards and my iPhone 5 fits nicely in there too, or you can put it in the opposite side outer zip pocket. Yes, these are a little pricey, but wow are they beautiful and very functional.

Beautiful purse! Well-made and the artwork is gorgeous. I love this purse so much, I've ordered another style. I'm hooked on Anuschka!

This is a really nice handbag. I wanted one that would enable me to carry my iPad around inconspicuously and this one works great! It has lots of room and it is very well made. I use as a shoulder bag and it is very comfortable. I have received many compliments on the unusual painted design.

I love the design. A lot of reviews say it is subdued, I don't agree. I am not a flashy person at all and this purse is a bit flashy. At first I was not sure I would keep it, but the more I looked at it, the more I liked it. Now I want another one. I like the sections for keeping everything in its place. My iPhone fits perfectly in the outer zipper pocket. The construction is excellent quality. The leather is thick but soft. The entire purse appears durable. It looks awesome with jeans! I was a little disappointed in the size. The model must be teeny because it certainly looked bigger on the website. That said, I can fit what I need into it, but not anything else. Yes, there are measurements provided, but I guess I didn't pay enough attention to them. The strap is long enough to do the cross body thing, but just barely. I guess my only regret is not buying this at the beginning of the summer since we are definitely into the Seattle rainy season and I am not using this purse in the rain. I missed a whole summer of using it.

The bag is painted beautifully, but the dye from the paint rubs off on my blouses when I wear it crossbody. My blouses are dry when this happens. I can't get the stain out. This is quit annoying because I ruined my new blouses wearing this bag. It's the Lion print.

Love the handbag. Very functional, with the outside "wallet" feature. I am only going to rate this 2 stars. I am taking two stars away because fading started with in a couple months and the fading is so bad, the colors are all muted and the name brand can no longer be seen. My mother bought a bag the same time and her purse still looks brand new. I am taking another point away because of the price. I knew the cost but still wanted the purse, after receiving and using a few months, I would not have paid almost a lot for it. It is beautiful for about 5 months, before it wears away and fades. The functionality of the purse is just 'ok' as it does not hold as much as I originally thought.

loved these bags when I received them in February from Evine. 5 Month later the one it literally falling apart. The leather on the bottom is so thin it is worn through and underneath the leather the lining looks like cardboard. The finish has rubbed off in several places. When I contacted the company and sent them pictures they said there was nothing they would do about it as it was not a result of the manufacturing process. The leather is so thin it wear off. but that's not a manufacturing problem? They said they would give me a 20% discount on another purse. What kind of an idiot would want to throw good money after bad. I am thoroughly disgusted and disappointed. Do not buy these bags as the company does not stand behind them.
