It’s been a year and I cannot count how many times I’ve worn this purse or the amount of compliments I have received on it!!!The bag is very durableQuality: This purse is a Bottega dupe, and people actually think it’s Bottega when I wear it. The bag has very durable leather, the chain itself weighs about 1-2lbs so it feels quality. I usually wear it short, but there is a long chain that I tuck insideThe color is very vibrant and pigmented. Purse is absolutely stunning. I came back to leave a review and order another color!You can find similar styles on Amazon cheaper but the quality does not match these!GET this purse in all the colors you can afford !!!Very much alike but the color I chose came out a bit darker than I expected still a great purse I purchase the closest to the actual product and I must say it was well with value. Tho it didn’t come as expected they have the same bag color availyon site so I’m still very satisfiedActually really beautiful bag. I was impressed with the quality of the leather. I chose the green. My only critique, i wish the shoulder strap was just a little longer. Im 5’3’’ and am unable to carry as a cross body, it hits at a weird spot, just a little short. The chain is nice quality, although it is very loud when moved around, if your in a quiet place ?This bag is ??. I don’t think it’s real leather so I think It should of been priced a little cheaper due to that. It does resemble leather and not like plastic though. Also the clasp is a little hard to open & close.. but the bag is so beautiful that I don’t mind a little more effort to do that. It does have a little weight to it.. but that’s expected due to the style of the bag. The strap could be a little longer for cross body wear( for us taller girls 5’7). Hopefully the manufacturer will keep this all in mind for future production. Just wanted to give my honest feedback with all the pros Vs cons. Overall.. visually..it’s a nice bag, good dupe, well made & excellent quality. You won’t be disappointed. Get the bag if you love the real version.This is my 3rd bag of this style, the NEW GREEN color. I also have the black/silver and blue/silver. They're all so well made. So plush and well constructed. Not flat but very cushiony. The bags come so well packaged and protected. I'm favoring the silver chain on these bags but the gold chain with the New Green color is just beyond description, a beauty. No, it isn't the biggest bag on the inside, more suited to a cell phone, keys a flat wallet and a few other things. But I've got my other bags if I need more room. These bags are just plain designer fun! All the stitching is straight, no loose strings. The border edges are sturdy, no chance of separating. The chain is anchored on very strong. And it's a durable soft leather, comes with a leather swatch of the bag. Same dimensions as "That other BV bag". Looks just like it. When you hold it in your hands it feels substantial. The chain is on the lighter side in weight, but not too bad. And yes, a bit noisy (but so is the other $4,000 bag). I'm very satisfied. Just like my other high end well made bags, I can tell these handbags will hold up indefinitely. I did try the other lesser priced bags like this Evalulu. Those are synthetic and less cushioned, there's no comparison. The leather sample piece included with these Evalulu bags is the leather used on bag. Synthetic material would not have the rougher flakey underside like these samples pieces. That's how leather looks underneath. And can't forget to mention the attentiveness of Evalulu representative. They've answered every question I've sent over on the Evalulu customer question feature. Just awesome!I got the black one and I’m very happy with my purchase.The bag is beautiful. The quality is great! I purchased two of these and I’m loving it! I would take it down a half a point for the loudness of the chain. It doesn’t bother me that much however. This is the best dupe I’ve seen!I did notice that the other bag i purchased from same seller just a suede leather instead has a longer chain. So, there may be some inconsistencies from one bag to another. Just fyi but i still love both.For those wondering, the BV chain is a deeper gold & a tad more chunkier. This chain is a yellow gold, but it’s a nice weight and size. Less expensive dupes have acrylic chains and an off gold tone. The leather might feel off because of the design process. I have a leather bag like this & it takes a few days for that true leather feel & smell to show. I can feel it getting much softer and it’s been 2 days. The bag was already pretty plush to begin with. Hopefully I have that theory right. Anyway, this is a nice quality DUPE. A dupe is inspired not copied, so it’s nice for what it’s suppose to be. :)I waited for this colourway to come in stock and k couldn’t have been happier. Given this bag style can go for over 5k CAD from other labels, this is a perfect alternative.Great looking purse, really happy with the quality.
