Absolutely love both bags!
I've bought bags from here before and they were beautifully made, these smaller ones are equally good.
Lovely seller too.
Delighted and very happy to recommend.

Great product - bought as a gift for a friend. She loves it. Second purchase - first item was a denim crossbody bag for myself, which now goes everywhere with me! The attention to detail and thought that’s gone into each item is fabulous. And despatch service is super speedy too. Would highly recommend buying from Alison - I’ll be back soon! Thank you

Fabulous bag! I used it on my recent trip to Scotland and it was so handy to have this bag - it was comfortable to wear slung over my shoulder or as a cross body bag too. Great sized pockets inside and loved the little ribbon with a keyring clasp too that you can clip things to! I love it so much I'm continuing to use t as my main handbag now!

This is my second bag from Alison and I love it as much as the first. It was perfect for my city break holiday, there was room for a water bottle, sunglasses and everything I needed for a day out. My phone and passport fitted easily in the front pocket for easy access, and there was even room for my iPad inside. I love that I can adjust the strap to change how I wear it. Thank you!

Ordering was easy and delivery very quick. My niece is overjoyed with the bag. I would strongly recommend this lovely shop.

I already own a few things made by Alison, so I knew the quality going to be exceptional, and this tote bag has not disappointed. It's absolutely brilliant!! It's so well-made, sturdy, and soooooo roomy!! I can get ALL my stuff in there ... and I carry around a lot of stuff ... journals, stationery, mobile first aid kit for any eventuality!!! The colour of the lining and handles is just gorgeous. I'd wanted one of these totes for ages, and I'm so glad I finally got around to treating myself!
And I love the fact that Alison creates her bags using recycled fabric ... eco-friendly, practical and gorgeous ... what could be better than that?!
The customer service was, as always, perfect, with the bag arriving really quickly, beautifully packaged and a hand-written thank you from Alison.

I bought this bag for an event later this month, but I've already used it nearly every day. A perfect size for all my essentials including my water bottle but is easy to carry not at all bulky. It's beautifully made and I love the green colour.
