Default Botkier Large Kika Satchel

Botkier Large Kika Satchel

Photographer turned handbag designer, Monica Botkier, has created some very feminine bags this season. One of these bags, shown above, is called the Large Kika Satchel. It has a curvy silhouette, detachable locket charm, and a large bow adorning the end of one handle. Strangely enough, when I initially saw this bag, I had no idea it was a Botkier design. In fact, at first glance, this bag looks like a Juicy Couture handbag (especially now that they have been producing some much milder designs lately). I think it's that bow. It just makes it look more "Couture Princess" than "Botkier Functional and Stylish". Don't you all agree? All in all, I don't think this handbag is all that bad. The Black is definitely more appealing to me than the Pink/Grey version. I'm also a sucker for pleats, so I am partial to that portion of this bag's style. The little locket charm is cute too and, at the moment, I am up in the air about my feelings for the bow.

The Botkier Large Kika Satchel is available in Black and Pink/Grey. It measures 12" x 11" x 3.5" and the double handles have a 6" drop. It may resemble a Juicy Couture handbag, but it definitely has a Botkier price tag -- this baby retails for $645.

Find it over at Revolve Clothing.

The black is cool....the gray and pink they should donate a % to breast cancer awareness because that is what it reminds me of!

The black version I'd carry. The pink/grey, not so sure about.

This is also available in Multi Metallic Snake. Umm... I'm not feeling this color quite so much.
