With our latest collaboration, we are excited to bring the power of design to our biggest fans. Who better to consult than our favorite bag enthusiasts behind the much obsessed over Purse Blog? Teaming up with Megs and Vlad for the Purse Blog design project has been a dream-there is no place more passionate about handbags on the web.  What’s most inspiring for us is being able to get direct feedback from Purse Blog’s cherished family-some of our favorite Botkier girls are Purse Blog readers!

The first phase of the Botkier + Purse Blog design gave the readers a chance to vote on the most intimate design details. Thanks to the efforts of thousands of voters, we’ve decided the style of bag, color, and type of hardware. We’ll be welcoming back the Sasha, in a distressed grey with gunmetal hardware.  Now, it’s up to you to vote on the finishing touches-will the final Sasha sport a fanciful fringe? Or will it boast braided detailing? The choice is yours-visit Purse Blog’s newest post to contribute your ideas!
