All About Fall week AMBER POLLARD

Who doesn't need a new purse for fall? I know I needed one and Amber Pollard had just the right one for me. I was sent the Alfresco in Chocolate and I'm in love! It's the perfect color, perfect size, and perfect bag!
I like this color, it's not dark like chocolate, it's a nice taupe and is perfect for fall.
It has feet on the bottom. I love this feature on any purse. It keeps it from getting dirty and touching dirty surfaces


It's a great bag. I love the pockets on the outside. There is a zippered pocket, great for my keys and ONLY my keys. I like that I can't lose them. The little pocket in front of it has a couple suckers for Avery and 1 chapstick. 

The inside zipper pocket has my chapstick, lip gloss, sanitizer, advil, and powder foundation. The inside of the bag has my other stuff like wallet, wipes coupons, etc. I love that my coupon organizer fits PERFECTLY in this bag!! And the little pockets inside hold my cell phone, the other one has my CVS card and Kroger Plus card in it! I love this bag. It's plenty big. Even if we went on a HUGE day trip somewhere, I could fit all my stuff in there and then some. I used this at family day on base. They had a lot of prizes and such they were giving away. Besides all my regular stuff in there I also had a Baseball sized soft play ball, a teddy bear, water bottles (2) and a flashlight. I mean it all fit and then some.

The one thing I don't care for is that it just magnetic snaps closed. No zipper at the top. It makes it easy to get into, but if my purse gets knocked over, stuff is falling out you know?

I love that it's Vegan Friendly leather It smells like real leather and smells great!! I love the material inside, it seems easy to just wipe clean. I love the feet on the bottom. The zippers all work great and are seamlessly easy. All around I'm in love. I didn't think I would like a one strap purse, but I LOVE it!!

Amber has a LOT of different bags as well. 
Here is another one of my favorites
Taqueria


Price: This bag is $235. It's a lot, I know, but it's very well made and sturdy and it worth it. I see me getting 5 or so years out of it. Probably MANY more. You can get the bag I reviewed for $50 right now at their sample sale!!

Overall: ***** so nice and I love it!

    I really love this Alfresco bag that you reviewed the best.
    I also like the Trattoria Collection.
    If I won, I'd love the Alfresco bag in Chocolate Rum (not only looks great, but sounds great too!)
    Thanks so much for this awesome giveaway.
