Chocolate Handbag Review

“Wear Your Addiction”

Since 2008, Chocolate Handbags have been bringing women fun, trendy synthetic leather bags. Every Chocolate collection draws from the latest trends and provides women with the chic, fashionable designs they love for an affordable price.

Review

Chocolate doesn’t have a huge selection of bags; but there are many different styles and colors, each with unique details that make them special. As I was looking through my current handbag collection, I noticed all my bags were either tan, brown, and black – pretty boring. Chocolate has so many fun colored bags, I knew I wanted something more interesting then tan.

I choose the mauve and chocolate 55755 satchel.

I love the colors used in this bag. Mauve is an unusual purse color, but it is so beautiful and a great color for fall. The synthetic leather is very smooth and has a shiny finish. I have never seen a real leather bag with such a slick sheen, so in that regard, the synthetic leather is not very realistic.

Specifics:

This satchel is a medium size and a nice change from the gigantic, black hole bags.

The handle on the bag is small but it comes with a removable shoulder strap.

When it comes to handbags, everyone wants to know about the pocket situation. This satchel has a double pocket feature that I have not seen before.

This picture shows the dual pockets, both zippered, with a separate pocket in between. There is two additional pockets on the other side as well.

Purchase/Win

Purchase – Visit the the Chocolate Handbags online shop to purchase. Also check them out on Facebook and Twitter.

Win – Chocolate is generously offering one Let’s Win reader the same beautiful bag I received. This giveaway is part of the Fashionista Event and is open to US and Canada. Visit the Chocolate Handbags giveaway.

I have a material connection because I received a review copy, that I can keep for consideration in preparing to write this content.

Miche Handbag Review

The Miche handbags are an awesome solution for women, like me, who love bags. They allow us the luxury of  never having to change purses yet still have a completely new look whenever we want.

How does it work – Choose one base bag and then easily attach any of the Miche magnetic shells. When you want to switch the look of your bag, just remove the shell from the base bag and add a new one.

Miche Bags are great because:

  • Handbags take up a lot of space. The Miche shells are flat; you can have many of them in a small area.
  • Buying multiple Miche shells are cheaper then buying multiple handbags.
  • You don’t have to transfer all of your belongings whenever you change purses.

Miche Bag – a 3 step process

Step 1: choose a base bag

The base bag comes in three sizes: Big Bag, Classic, and Mini. I choose the Mini bag which measures 4″(wide) x 8″(long) x 6″(tall). I don’t have any other handbags this small, and I really like it. I am always losing things in my big purses. The handle on this bag is a little short for my taste (11.5 ” drop), but I do like the chain detail.

Step 2: choose a magnetic shell

Miche offers many different shells for each size bag. My favorite mini bag shell is the Liz. It’s so elegant with the black, velvety flowers.

Step 3: attach shell to base bag

This is the fun part. Lay your shell flat with the design facing down. Set your base bag in the center of the shell. Lift the shell’s sides, and they will be magnetically drawn into place. Once the shell is on, you won’t be able to see that it is removable. Love that!

Buy/Win

Buy

Miche has such a fun product; the bag I received was beautiful. I was happy to see that the Miche bags and shells were priced affordably as well.

The Classic Bag – The Classic Bag is just that, classic. It is the perfect shape and color to use everyday. The fabric is coated canvas with leather accents and the inside features a bright blue lining. I found this handbag to be durable and easy to care for. The dimensions for the Classic Bag are 12.5″L x 7″W x 8″H.
