3.5 stars. I really liked this bag for travel. This is a very pretty blue. I don't like it so much that I would wear it every day. I wore this in Italy and put glasses, sunglasses, tissues, lipgloss, my Rick Steve's Italian Phrase Book & Dictionary (that's 5*s) etc. I kept the majority of my money and my credit cards in my money belt. I grew up in NY and Boston so I'm street smart and held onto my bag and I would personally NEVER rely on a purse to keep my money/credit cards in Venice and Florence. I loved the little light attached to the key hook so much I took it off and put it on the Birth of Venus key chain I bought at the Uffizi. My recommendation for travel: buy this bag AND wear a money belt. Don't keep all your money in one place.
