It might not be very high class, but my inner boho chick has fallen in love with this Blues Satchel from Jesselli Couture.
This bag is a real free spirit, with colorful embroidered patterns decorating its rich teal velvet body. The accents perhaps are more fashion throwback than retro cool, but there’s a certain charm to them. I could have done without the tassel hanging down from one side, as I think it takes this satchel into kitschy territory, but you could easily ditch it with a quick snip.
It looks like an open topped purse, but there’s actually a sunken zipper hidden away. I really appreciate that because the design remains clean, but security isn’t compromised. This Blues bag is enormous, but its array of interior pockets ensures it stays manageable. I also appreciate the long shoulder straps with their cute stitched edges. They’re as fun as they are functional!
Modern misses may snub this satchel but I appreciate its retro appeal, especially for an affordable $117.
