Using this bag is a breeze. Just open the top and put in your essentials like your phone, wallet, keys, and makeup. It's great for casual outings, work, or running errands. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe off any dirt or dust. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight for long periods as it may fade the ivory color. Also, keep it away from sharp objects to prevent scratches on the leather. If it gets wet, let it dry naturally in a well - ventilated area.
