Hi..I have been eyeing all the beautiful Roxburies...can it be held in the crook of the arm or is it just a clutch/shoulder bag? Thank you, Pam

Without the strap, you can just hold it in your hand...with the strap, it's a shoulder bag.

If definately cannot be held in the crook, the opening is too slim.

Like everyone said. It's a clutch and shoulder bag only. You can have it dangle on your wrist, but that's it. If you prefer, you can go for the Rosewood. With the long double straps, it can be held on the elbow as well as your shoulder.

Definitely can not be held in your arm!!! The opening is soooooo narrow!

Congrats Pam!

It's a gorgeous bag and a gorgeous colour too. I would love to get a vernis handbag (I've only got the SLGs so far) but I worry that I can't pull the look off. Maybe your modelling pics can help me decide??
