This thing is pretty incredible. Two compartments are buttoned together, both featuring a double zip mechanism to allow easy entrance. Inside one of the compartments is a separate leather pocket for smaller personal items. The handles button together for easier carrying and from between the two compartments emerges a shoulder strap. When you unbutton the two compartments from each other, you can spread the bag out and actually wear it as a backpack, making it as functional as it is gorgeous.
