Chelsea Tote Bag

Aimee Kestenberg was not even on my radar until I stumbled on her tote bag. I have my favorite brands like most, but I’m happy I’ve found her line. I’m very pleased with the quality of the leather and how soft it feels. It’s a clean design, chic, yet classy and understated. It has a lot of pockets which is a big plus for a tote, the lining is fun…..it doesn’t have a zipper but it has purse feet! So many high-end designer bags which may be 3 or 4 times the price, are not leather as *advertised and doesn’t have purse feet, which is one of my pet peeves when purchasing a substantial size bag. I’ve owned many high-end white leather bags, I’m curious to see how the white color of the leather endures and looks over time, but it looks beautiful at this time. Bottom line, I feel that it’s money well spent on a quality tote bag and I’m getting a lot of bang for my buck!

I love this bag! It has a total of four slip pockets on the inside, plus a zippered pocket (which is a little small). It also has two good-sized front zipper pockets and a sizable back magnet snap pocket, none of which are mentioned in the description. My only disappoints are that the lining (again, description says unlined) is weird and the straps definitely need to be more substantial. I love it, anyway, so I’m keeping it. Nice leather! Beautiful color!

This handbag is gorgeous!! It is the perfect size tote with just the right amount of pockets and quite lightweight! This shade of pink is so pretty! The only thing I would change is make it a zip top - not a problem though! I love Aimee Kestenberg bags and have been purchasing them for years!

This is the second Aimee Kestenberg bag that I have bought. I purchased this tote to use for my work bag. It is a really nice size, not too small and not too large. I am one of those people who will fill a bag no matter what size, so this tote is a perfect size to keep me from getting out of control. The leather is beautiful and the tote has just the right amount of detail- not boring. The bag is nice and wide . It has inside pockets on all sides. The two on the ends are perfect for water bottles or any item that has a bit of size to it. There is a zippered pocket on one side and the standard two slip pockets for items like phone, glasses and keys on the other side. There are two zippered pockets on the outside that I did not know about when I purchased this tote. They are large in size such a nice plus as the interior of the bag doesn’t have a more divided compartment. I really love the quality of the lining of the pockets rom this designer. The bottom of the bag has small feet that saves the integrity of the bottom of the tote. The tote also comes with a dust cover bag for storage. The only thing I am not totally thrilled about is the magnetic closure on top of the bag. It is a small flap from each side that comes together so The tote is never totally closed. However it does lend to being able to carry more items in the bag. Overall, this is an awesome tote and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another.
