Two wide cotton webbing handles, embellished with matching fabric, for comfortable hand or shoulder carrying.
A removable and adjustable shoulder strap that attaches to sturdy metal D-rings on each side of the bag for convenient crossbody wear.
Two large elastic side pockets, perfect for carrying a water bottle, baby bottle, umbrella, or other essentials.

Six interior pockets, in addition to the main compartment, to help keep everything neatly organized.
