^I bought a Minkoff regular MAC to use for my travels next year. IMO, the mini one is too small especially if you have a long wallet.
The thing Ilike about the MACs is that the opening is wide, and the bag can transition into a clutch for night outs. Plus, i like that the the bag is wider than most cross body bags. The Coach swingpacks are nice, pero the lack of width is annoying.
