How much does the Rio mini tote hold?

It fits essentials such as a phone, cardholder, keys and a lipstick. It will not take a tablet, a full-size wallet or a water bottle.

Is the strap long enough to wear on the shoulder?

Yes. It comes with a shoulder strap in addition to the top handle, so it can be worn on the shoulder or carried by hand.

Patent leather resists light rain but shows fingerprints and fine scuffs. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth and store it in its dust bag.

It closes with a drawstring, which is quick to use but less secure than a zipper. Keep valuables in the inner pocket.

It works for light days, but the small capacity and glossy finish make it better suited to evenings and weekends than a full workday.
