The offshoot brand Moschino Cheap & Chic has a somewhat misleading name, depending on who you ask. Though definitely chic, I find Moschino’s term “cheap” to perhaps be a little tongue-in-cheek humor since the items offered generally retail at designer prices beyond what the average person considers to be cheap. Especially with the economy as it is now, I think most shoppers’ frame of reference for the word has shifted a little.
That being said, Moschino Cheap & Chic still has some noteworthy accessories crafted with high-quality materials and impeccable style. The Rosa shoulder bag is one of them. With a price tag of nearly $1300, this satchel is made to impress and accomplishes that task rather nicely.
The pastel goat leather has a hint of sheen to it, which highlights the material’s texture. Belted details abound on the Rosa with a buckled closure and decorative buckles on the front. Its silver hardware blends well with the shimmery lavender-colored leather.
Thankfully, this Moschino handbag was built for more than style, though. Equally as impressive as the quality, the Rosa could be extremely functional for busy women who need plenty of storage inside and out of a bag. The satin-lined interior with a zippered pocket will hold an acceptable amount of items.
The exterior, however, is where the Rosa earns its worth as being convenient. Although not exactly adding to the chic factor, pockets on either side of the bag provide easy access storage for small necessities. They kind of give the satchel a diaper bag look but not enough to count it out as a viable option for a stylish designer handbag.
