Botkier Taylor Satchel | Large Black Italian Leather Tasseled Handbag

Posted on: Nov 17

Finding a cross-body purse that can fit more than a wallet and keys can be challenging, but Botkier has stepped up to fill the fashion void with the Taylor.

This bohemian styled satchel is crafted from buttery soft Italian lambskin for that hobo-style slouch. Tiny pinched pleats create stripes from the top to the base. Thin, sparse tassels hang down to create a hippie vibe which is a little more sophisticated than heavy fringing can be.

The exterior doesn't feature any obvious branding, instead preferring to let the gold logo plate and signature lining inside do the talking. The zippered pocket and single cell phone slip probably aren't quite enough to keep a space of this size properly organized, but I'm willing to forgive that little misstep.

You've got the option of carrying the Taylor using the two shoulder straps, or the much longer cross-body one. Whichever way you wear it, the Taylor oozes hippie cool without looking like a Woodstock relic.
