Kensie Girl shows its sensible side with the Button Up cross-body.
This purse’s name comes from both its conservative demeanor and that cute little button accent on the envelope style flap. That button gives an otherwise classic style a bit of Kensie Girl’s signature whimsy. She might be buttoned up, but she’s not a complete wallflower!
The color choices also step outside the box. I really like the matte color choices: this pretty seaside blue and the mustardy lemon yellow. I’m less convinced by the white purse with its black flap and straps though. I suppose this was Kensie Girl’s attempt at colorblocking, but such large patches of contrasting colors don’t really work for me.
The Button Up is made from synthetic rather than leather, but it’s one of the best manmade mimics I’ve seen. Its deep pebbled finish and softness are so impressive it might even fool your friends. This synthetic’s quality is even more commendable when we consider Kensie Girl’s very affordable bottom line. At $49, this sweet cross-body is a steal.
The only letdown for me is that long cross-body strap. Rather than use more of that enviable synthetic, Kensie Girl has made the strap from nylon. It’s a woven material rather than that horrible shiny nylon, but it still cheapens this cross-body’s impeccable good looks.
