I tried the Beverly on - actually was on a list and went in to pick it up - until I tried it on. It's a beautiful bag but it is very wide (triangular kind of). When I put it on my shoulder, I couldn't put my arm down at all - just stuck out so far, so I ended up not getting it. Pretty - but I had to sling it behind my body kind of to wear it. It's very pretty, but I like a shoulder bag that fits nicely under my arm (kind of flatter to the body), which is why I prefer the BH. I had my money all ready and everything to buy the Beverly and just couldn't do it. I just bought the third Batignolles for our family (can't believe that really - seems crazy! I should take out stock in that bag). LOL!
