Hi: I don't think many here own it. The Harper is the little sister of the Dylan/Jackie/Harper line. Here are links to the Kooba website that show modeling photos of the Harper as well as the Jackie for size reference (click on 'more views' for each).

Harper: http://www.kooba.com/Harper/pr/pd/c/1/np/1/p/96213.html

Jackie: http://www.kooba.com/Jackie/pr/pd/c/1/np/1/p/96212.html

I know a member just bought a Jackie and really loves it so perhaps they will chime in. I've not carried either but I have tried the Dylan, which I thought was a comfortable carry and highly functional. I think style and size wise that the Jackie is more attractive (to me).

Hope that helps....

I don't have that one, but I just bought a Jackie, which looks exactly like it, but about twice the size.
I love mine. The leather is gorgeous and soft, and I love the sheen of it.
I'm pretty sure I saw one of those at my NM Last call.
If you want a smaller bag, this is it.

I saw the Harper last Fall, I think, at Saks. I really liked it. I paraded myself around the store with it to see how fast we could bond....and it was full price, too, which is very much unlike me. The only reason, and I mean the only reason why I didn't get it, was because that was the first Kooba that I had seen in the thinner leather, and I felt like Kooba cheaped out but was still charging their high price, so I placed her back on her shelf and walked away. It really is a nice bag, and for $327 dollars, I would say that I myself might do a double-take.

I got it from BlueFly with 10% off and $30 less deal. So it was under $300.

It's rather small to me, but gorgeous.

I have the Harper and I love it. I tend to carry my bags in the crick of my arm because they all seem to end up there. It is a cute bag and really holds quite a bit because of the depth. I bought my Mom one from BlueFly also, it is waiting in my closet until her b.d. in October. Try to use one of the 15% off codes listed in steals and deals purseforum section.

Does this bag fit on the shoulder? Is there a strap that allows you to carry on your shoulder? Thanks!
