- Caitlyn L.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 starsObsessed!
I am in love with this bag - I’ve had the Neela for about a year now and this is like a smaller version of that same stunning bag. I love the woven detailing on the outside and it is able to hold a lot of things making it a perfect daily bag!
- RuthVerified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 starsNew summertime handbag
I had originally wanted this bag in cognac, but the grey is really a nice color for it. The weaving is really pretty and adds a unique touch. Such a classy bag for summertime
