Realm Straw Satchel

I bought this cutie impulsively, and I have gone back and forth about keeping it or returning it; but ultimately, I have decided to keep it because its pros out weigh the poor quality. This is not a large bag, but it holds a lot of stuff. It sits just right under my arm to not be uncomfortable, and the style is very modern and classic. It has “leather” trim, the description calls it leather, but I am not sure, and the woven grass textile is nice, but I don’t know if it can survive how I handle bags. I really like a substantial bag, but this one is more cute than substantial, thus my indecision for two days. Definitely overpriced at full price, but looks great with all of my favorite summer looks. We’ll see if it survives this summer and makes a return next year, but I have decided I can’t part with it even at full price.

I have been patiently waiting for this beauty to go on sale. Well, finally at an exceptional price point I bought it. Quality that has been impossible to find. Genuine straw and leather handcrafted in Italy. Not the “paper straw”. But it is large and throws my silhouette off balance. Not sure if that makes sense. It would be helpful to provide a picture with a model holding the bag. It will go back and I hope someone bolder and more savvy than I snags it before it sells out. Exhale.
