Duffle bags tend to be masculine, utilitarian creatures, more concerned with getting your stuff where you need it to be than making a style statement. So I’m thrilled to see Kensie Girl having a bit of fun with the handbag style with this Truffle Duffle.
This girly bag certainly won’t be everyone’s cup of cappuccino, but I’ve fallen for its whimsical charms. I love its ruffled sides, and the studded bow which decorates the handle. Given that it costs just $59 it won’t surprise you that this purse is made from synthetic rather than real leather, but I don’t think that’s such a bad thing here. The stiffer fabric gives those ruffles structure and ensures they sit up just so.
It looks like a bit of a show pony but make no mistake; the Truffle Duffle knows it has a job to do and it does it well. It’s luxuriously large, but with a generous zippered pocket running down the center it never feels unmanageable. Side wall pockets are trimmed with more of that synthetic to ensure they’ll go the distance.
This duffle bag is fun and feminine, but I think Kensie Girl pushes things just far enough. Rather than treating us to lurid pinks and purples, it chooses more mellow tones to temper all those frills. Look for the Truffle Duffle in black, sandstone, lemon yellow, and aqua splash blue.
