Why do shoppers love it?

With so many options on the market, it can be tricky finding the right purse to add to your ever-growing collection, but nothing beats a bag that works for all kinds of occasions. The Emma Shoulder Bag may look like every other small purse, but it has a detachable pouch that works as part of the over-the-shoulder bag or by itself for the days you don't want to carry something big around. The shoulder bag itself measures 10.5 inches long, 3.25 inches wide, and 6.75 high, and comes with both a single handle strap, which has a handle drop of 8.5 inches and is also detachable, as well as an adjustable, thick strap, measuring 24 inches at its longest, that easily makes the bag a long shoulder purse or crossbody. That thick strap is where the pouch can be attached or removed based on your look. 

Made with pebbled leather, the bag has a smooth, soft feel that looks particularly gorgeous in any of the available five colors. The interior of the bag is quite spacious, big enough to fit an iPhone 13 Pro Max or 9.7-inch iPad. It has an interior back zip pocket, perfect for storing smaller items like keys or chapstick, while still leaving more than enough room in the rest of the bag to store whatever you need.

The bag also has an additional front slip pocket, perfect for items you want easy access to, and has a secure zipper closure. The design of the bag is casual enough for everyday use, but can be dressed up with the right outfit for formal events. The detachable pouch is a unique feature that's perfect for keeping small, important items close to the chest when it's attached, but works great on its own when you don't want to lug a huge purse around.
