Sharif makes such beautiful bags, and this is no exception. Unfortunately, this bag is just too large and overpowering for a small framed person. I think Sharif would have done better if the handles matched the color of the bag rather than using black, which isn't in the champagne bag at all. For the money, leather handles would have been nice, or even pearl handles. I love his bags, but I wish he would make some of these really pretty ones a bit smaller so as to compliment us petite girls.
