The inside is a beautiful dark brown suede with, two open pockets for glasses, cell phone, cigs etc and one zipper pocket. Folks I cannot stress enough how pretty this purse is. The pictures do not do it justice. I used it twice and was stopped several times to ask where I got it. I don't like it because I need a purse that is not deep because I can never find anything in a deeper purse. Also, I just realized you cannot see all of the decorative metal there are studs in several places as well as a little metal tube above the stone.
