Conservative types will swoon for the sensible styling of Frye’s Christine bag.
There’s a unisex appeal about the classic combination of neutral toned leather and antique brass hardware. Leather trim stripes flank the practical front pocket, which is a great place for storing your car keys, cell phone, or other items you want to find without fuss.
The interior space is also traditionally designed, with its functional twill lining and single zippered pocket. It’s not very big by modern-day standards, but most girls shouldn’t struggle to fit the essentials inside.
I am a little confused by the strap though. The Christine is called a shoulder bag, so why isn’t the strap long enough to comfortably fit over a shoulder? The decision to make the strap detachable is also confusing. After all, the Christine is far too large to comfortably carry clutch style. I do love its look though; the braided center with its zip details is an unexpected eye-catcher.
As you might expect, the colors of the traditional Christine are quite conservative. It’s not a fashion rebel, but in black, dark brown or burgundy it is an easy fit for any wardrobe.
