Hello all. So I need a nice basic black bag. With LOTS of pockets. My current bag has almost no pockets and is a nightmare to get things out of. I will seriously search for my keys for five minutes. I decided to go with a brand I know and trust, Sabina (the only decent bags sold at UO and at this price range, that I know of). However, I'm caught between two styles.

This is my first contender. It's on SALE, which is a big plus. It also has five front pockets-which is very tempting. It has a couple bad reviews saying the rubber on the handle peels (I have a Sabina bag with the rubber on the handle that has never once peeled. And I've owned it for over a year). Another girl who's owned it for over a year had no peeling complaints. The zippers are apparently easy to break-but they also look like an easy fix (just little metal rings).

Aaaaand here's number two. It isn't on sale and has no reviews as of yet, so I have no idea how it fares. It only has one front pocket, but has the advantage of a cross-body strap. The two bags are about the same size (if you look at the measurements).
What do you ladies think? I wish I could get a nice designer bag, but I can't afford it as a college student unless it's for a special occasion. I like Sabina-they're great for the price. But I'm unsure here.
