Mini Maestra Leather Satchel

My Senreve Mini maestra is the perfect everyday companion. This is one of those bags that you don’t know you love until you see it in person. I’ve been seeing it all over social media and I didn’t get the hype at first, but a woman on my flight had one and I couldn’t get it out of my mind after that. She had the dragon leather Maestra and it was such a unique texture I had to get one myself! The maestra is way more versatile than it might appear -- for work or for weekends, it just works in every occasion. Wearing the bag the past year, I can say the functionality, durability and practicality is off the charts. I used to have the LV Neverfull, and while it fit a whole lot, I was always worried about my stuff falling out, rain getting in, or finding anything I needed in huge bag. (It was like Marry Poppins every time I wanted to find my keys). But with my Maestra, everything is covered and secured by zippers and pockets. I know exactly where everything is and that makes my life just that much easier. I also got the pebbled leather, which is incredibly sturdy, which means that I don’t have to baby my bag -- and that the bag stands up by itself, which was a major pet peeve with my Neverfull. The thought behind the design of this bag is also incredible; the ends of the zipper, for example can be clipped into the bag. The feet on the bottom of the bag makes sure my bag doesn’t have to touch the ground. There’s a key holder, as phone slot, a passport pocket. What more do you need? Moreover, the bag is so comfortable to wear and it’s the perfect size. I am 5’2″ and so many other bags (Goyard tote, I’m looking at you) make me look like a child. The look, of course is also stunning and I get asked all the time where my bag is from. Add the fact that my cost per wear for this bag is incredible, I’m so glad I finally added this bag to my collection. I honestly didn’t realize how much I’d love it until it was mine -- a true classic.

This bag is seriously life changing! I have the Cream Maestra and it goes with every single outfit from something more casual to business meetings to travel. The leather and overall quality of the bag is absolutely impeccable and the design is to die for. I've seriously gotten so many compliments on this bag every time I wear it! Bonus that the bag is so roomy and fits my 13" laptop, charger, planner, and just about every necessity I could possibly need. Love love love this bag!!

Where do I even begin? I got the mini in the dandelion color (almost yellow), so it's quite a head turner. "Mini" isn't as mini as you might think for a 5'2", 120 lb person. I'm glad I decided on a mini, sight unseen. Every time somebody pays it a compliment, I have to give them a demo. It's a handbag, shoulder bag, crossbody bag, and backpack all in one extremely well-constructed arm candy. What more do you want? Well, I love the additional zip closure in addition to the unique latch closure. I also love the micro-suede interior and all the essential pockets. The designer thought of everything! I love every detail and can't say enough good things about it. It's close to perfection. I am seriously thinking of buying a bigger black one for everyday use. The only problem I have with it is I am still unable to adjust the straps because I can't get the holes to pop out of those pegs. I use crossbody a lot, so I would like to lengthen the straps. I have emailed Senreve and they replied within minutes with a response and a video just for me. I'm supposed to really force it and they assured me it's OK. I'm still quite apprehensive that I may break it. I'll wait until it gets a little older and more supple.
