Every so often I come across a Juicy Couture handbag that surprises me. Though the brand generally calls to mind bright colors, lots of details, and printed crowns, they do have some grown-up styles that don’t get nearly enough credit.
I’m sure that bags like the Freestyle aren’t Juicy’s most widely popular items like the Daydreamer and the Baby Fluffy, but this slouchy handbag has merits of its own that make it desirable for shoppers … not the least of which that it isn’t covered in shiny metallic printed logos.
The ruching around the bottom of the bag gives it a laid-back, slouchy look ideal for an everyday bag. The ruched effect is continued on the top half of the bag due to a clever belt that weaves around the exterior.
Don’t think you’ll get a Juicy handbag without at least one classic Juicy detail, though. The gold hardware on the handle anchors is engraved with the signature logo and crown, but the result is subtle and actually a nice addition to the style. The leather Freestyle satchel is moderately priced for an oversized handbag at just over $500.
