Calvin Klein serves up a laidback take on summer fashion with this Laguna satchel. But is the American label sleeping on the job?
This gentle design is different to the colorful bags many labels release during summer. It doesn’t scream nearly so loudly, which should make it very versatile. I imagine it’ll work with most apparel in your daytime warm weather wardrobe, although I can’t imagine the casual purse will make the transition to the evening or the cooler months.
I just feel like I’ve seen it all before. Natural toned woven straw is a summer staple, and it always looks good paired with white leather accents. However because it feels so familiar it’s easy to overlook. I appreciate that Calvin Klein has attempted to give us options with a gold-trimmed version and another zebra one, but these don’t quite resonate either. Would you rather a daring but ultimately unsatisfying color scheme, or a boring one?
To be fair the Laguna’s interior offers more than I expected. This is no simple beach tote. Its main compartment features a pair of slide pockets, a duo of zippered ones, and a credit card organizer which allows us to leave our wallet behind.
Those functional features might just get the Laguna over the line. This satchel hasn’t wowed me, but for an affordable $168 Calvin Klein ensures we see value.
