Like Tory Burch, Botkier was created to give women a luxury look for a price that won’t make you faint. While the handbags are timeless, Botkier always add a little edginess in the details that make the style unique and recognizable to the brand.
The Jackie satchel reminds me of the Morgan hobo minus the fringe. The two bags share the same inverted pleat detail on the front along with a zippered top flap closure. The major similarities end there, however. Whereas the Morgan has a bohemian flair, the Jackie handbag takes on a bit more rock and roll.
The python texture of the leather material is definitely the standout of the pewter color option. Though the Jackie also comes in black, chocolate brown, yellow, and cream, it is the metallic silver choice that has the most edge. Snakeskin is a popular trend right now, and it looks great on this satchel. I actually think the bag looks fabulous in any of the colors, but the pewter snake just has something extra that appeals to me.
Vertical zippers on either side of the Jackie purse add to the rocker chic style. The fun, decorative tassel is a nice touch, although it is removable if you find it bothersome. Inside you’ll find a Botkier logo lining and zippered pocket. This roomy satchel retails for $650. That price might not be attainable to as many women as Botkier intended, but it’s not a bad deal for a large designer handbag full of quality details.
