It’s very rare for me to be in love with a Juicy Couture handbag. Usually, I don’t like the style, colors or the purse is just simply adorned in too much for my liking. I’m officially eating my words though because I am obsessed with the Juicy Couture Quilted Leather “Duchess” satchel.

I always praise any handbag that is black and has gold hardware. In my opinion, the colors go so amazing together and gives the handbag that classy/sophisticated fashion look. The “Duchess” is no exception. It’s gorgeous, black, and it kind of reminded me of a handbag that would be featured in a “sailor” style collection.

The only feature I don’t like about the “Duchess” is the closure! I’m not fond of magnetic snap closures. I own quite a few handbags that have the snap closure and I’m always paranoid something is going to fall out. Then sometimes you have to be careful that you don’t pull the snaps apart to rough or you can cause the leather to rip, like I did to one of my Michael Kors bags.

This is such a perfect bag for Fall and the upcoming Winter season. It has that look to it that would go great with jeans, boots, and a coat. Only problem is, if you live in an area with snow it can fall right into the bag. If only designers just stuck to zipper closures!

You can purchase the Juicy Couture “Duchess” at Zappos for $398.
