I used to own a black Hamilton NS in leather, not saffiano. God, it's heavy! And yes right, I hate the snap closure too! I sold it away and now I'm waiting the jet set zip top tote in dark dune (the one with 2 side pockets), yippie! It wasn't love at first sight but when I went down to the boutique one day just to look around, I just took that bag and tried it on and wow... gosh I love how lightweight it is and it actually looks gorgeous when carried! I simply can't stand heavy bags. I like the size too, ain't too big nor too small. I personally like Selma too but I'm more a tote kind of person.
