Elegance!!!!
This bag is gorgeous! Beautiful pink color and quality silver hardware. However, it is extremely difficult to open, thus is the reason for 4 stars & I returned it. I have arthiritis in my hands & I wouldn't enjoy using this bag for that reason. Thanks Judith!

Nothing more to ask for!
I bought three handbags and a wallet in JR's Stingray embossed leather. It is unique. Quality that will stand the test of time. This bag is the perfect size for evening and daytime when you don't need to carry all the stuff we think we need to have with us. A slim wallet Judith Ripka of course, pair of sunglasses and a lipstick and compact will fit and if you must I'm sure your cell phone would fit. I want to add I found the little envelope with the thank you card in the zipper compartment of one of the bags... it touched me, Judith's acknowledgement to her mother tells me the reason her designs are so classy is because she is a women of upbringing and class. Being the mother of 4 daughters it is heart warming when a successful women thanks their mother! I will think of mine and offer prayers of thanks to her when I carry my Judith Ripka handbags!

Gorgeous bag
I have just received this bag today and it exceeds my expectations! It's a very nice size and the color is beautiful (pink/lavendar). What I didn't expect is that the detachable strap can be doubled to use as a shoulder bag or used singly as a cross body! It can also be removed to use as a clutch. I see alot of uses for this lovely bag!! The magnetized back pocket and magnetized inside pocket are nice unexpected features. The closure is nice...easy to open, but keeps put securely closed. I LOVE this bag and am considering ordering another one in a different color. I usually use tote style purses, larger ones, and this will be a nice change for me! Can be used as an everyday bag or for evening bag as well. Nice job, Judith!!

ALMOST PERFECT......
The look and function of this bag is great!! I love the quilted stingray and the hardware is top drawer but my bag has an unpleasant chemical smell. I will wait and see if it goes away, if not I will return it and reorder with the hope that the next one won't have the same problem. WHY would leather smell this way? I want to own this bag, I love it

Incredibly fabulous gem of a handbag!
I am over the moon about this handbag...will never need another black bag of its type---it's the quintessential handbag at a very affordable price. The proportions are perfect; the attention to detail is superb. Judith and Allison--you hit a home run with this handbag. Please bring it back in the ivory leather with the gold "Jane" finish.

NOT SURE ABOUT THIS BAG???
I received this bag today and I must say I was impressed with the packaging, dust cover and the look of the bag. The problem I have is the same with some of JR jewelery. TOO HEAVY. For a small bag the weight with chain is an issue for me. I tried it for a few minutes crossbody and with nothing in the bag it was wearing down my neck. Also, have issue with the leather pieces that hold the chain. I think in time these will weaken from the weight of the chain and contents of purse. Soooo I am still in the decision mode as to whether I will return it. Most likely will. Sorry I used my special 5 easy pay on this one.

HOORAY!
Just opened it up and it is b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l! I got the black. No issues with the color. It is elegant, sophisticated, the leather has a lovely shine in the light..........gorgeous. Perfect ! Am I hearing a little Lieber???? Judith, throw a few of your gems and sparklers around the clasps of one of these babies!

Looks Like Chanel
Very pleased . I would have liked the chain running through metal loops instead of the leather loops as it would slide more smoothly. Thanks for the simple design--looks expensive. Hope to see a large black hobo with some shine like this leather, but in a fabric so it will be lightweight. An interesting handle or strap in tortoise-look chain would be nice. Thank you, looking forward to shopping for more Ripka bags!

AMAZING BAG
I just received this absolutely gorgeous bag. When I opened the QVC box and first saw the bag I was stunned by its beauty. It is hip and chic. The style and quality of this bag is "beyond". The leather with the stingray finish is fabulous. I have the black. The color does not have any issues. it is simply beautiful. I plan on wearing this bag as a crossbody to my company holiday party tomorrow. I know I will get lots of compliments. I love Judith's jewelry and now I love her bags! It's a WOW.
