I'm loving the clean lines of this seemingly simple faux leather crossbody bag.
The monochromatic exterior of honeysuckle pink faux leather emphasizes the sleek shape of the bag and the beautifully curved flap on the front. I love an unexpected fabric for my linings and the fun animal print with bright pink roses hits the mark.
The front flap hides a slip pocket which closes with a magnetic snap. A zipper pocket with a delicate heart-shaped pull is on the back. The interior of the bag features 2 large slip pockets as well as a large main divider/compartment secured by a zipper closure. All those pockets make it easy to stay organized!*
I added a pop of colour to the adjustable strap - this method takes longer to make but is so worth it! You can wear this as a shoulder bag or a crossbody bag as the strap adjusts from 27.75" up to 51".
*With so may pockets you may be tempted to put a ton of stuff in the bag - you can as long as it's not all heavy items. Due to the construction and stabilizer placement, it's not meant for heavy loads which might distort the shape of the bag over time.

Care:
Spot clean only – use very gentle detergent and a soft cloth (test in an inconspicuous spot first); do not put in washing machine or dryer. CAUTION: If you choose to use an iron to remove any creases from the cotton fabric or faux leather, be very careful and use low heat and most importantly, a pressing cloth so as to not damage the faux leather. Do not place the iron directly on the faux leather.
Expect normal wear and tear with use, especially on corners.
