Although I do like the python bag, I do not like it when carried. I don't like the side pockets at all. Reminds me of Celine bags with those wings...no, no, no!
I wasn't tempted to buy this bag either. There are simply SO many divine handbags out there...the design of this one is a bit too fussy for real life use but that's just me. It reminds me of the now discontinued Tod's Milky bag but fancier. Quilted leather is always nice though.
