Jessica Jensen looks to modern royalty for inspiration with its Catherine Carryall.
The Catherine has the same chic minimalist style the queen-in-waiting is famous for. Its angled tote shape is classic, but the rich moss-colored patent leather makes it feel very fresh. I’m not sure the tan vegetable leather straps are the best complement for the glossy skin, but at least they’re colored without nasty chemicals!
The Catherine’s interior doesn’t exceed our expectations, but the pair of media pockets and large zippered one do the job. I wish Jessica Jensen had opted for a secure zippered top rather than the magnetic closure though. This tote is so wide that small items could easily slip out of either side once it’s set down.
These elements are niggles rather than real functional flaws though. Personally I can live with them at this price point. $398 isn’t a lot to spend such a classic tote made from such high quality materials.
Can you imagine it making its way into Catherine Middleton’s wardrobe?
