Yep, I have done that a time or two definitely. I snagged the black satchel in popback - the caramel (which is GORGEOUS) is not on sale...yet. I will do a post on it soon but I can tell you that straps are great. I can put the 2 handles over my shoulder if I'm not wearing a heavy coat, and the long strap makes it a fine cross-body bag.
Good for you Heidi! I wondered about the sachel in Selby, I tried the smaller one and didn't love the strap. This one looks gorgeous, but I could never grab it on the pop-back. Oh, I like my outfit ^^ HAHA... do you ever do that? See a set and think, oh I have all those items, then realize it's your set? Gah!
