I usually buy handbags in store so I can see them first. This looked exactly like the photos, arrived in about a week and a half, and I've used it every day since.

You have 90 days from delivery to send it back unused. We refund you when it arrives.
Wipe PU with a soft, damp cloth and let it dry. Brush faux suede gently with a soft, dry brush. Keep it out of heavy rain and hot sun, and stuff it with paper when you put it away.
The colour is even better in person
Took a mirror pic for my sister because she didn't believe me about the colour. The wine red is deep and rich, it sits snug under my arm and fits my long purse, phone, keys and a little umbrella. Wearing it to work most days now, and the little charm on the handle is a cute touch.

On the train every morning it sits on my lap without taking up the next seat. Phone, Myki, purse, keys and a compact umbrella, all zipped in.

Caught on the walk to brunch. It's a proper pink, bright but not tacky, and it goes with all my white linen.

School pick-up bag
Lives on my lap in the car line at school pick-up. Phone, sunnies, keys and purse are right there, and the zip means nothing spills when I chuck it on the seat.

Not plasticky
I knew it was vegan leather going in. It doesn't look or feel plasticky at all, the finish is smooth and the stitching is neat.

Not too big, not too small
Exactly the size I wanted for work. Fits my day without weighing me down.

Doesn't fit my big drink bottle
Fits my phone, long wallet, keys and umbrella like it says, but my big drink bottle won't go in. Otherwise lovely.

Kept seeing it on Pinterest
It kept popping up on my Pinterest feed in black. Ordered it, and it's just as nice in real life.

Easy to find things
Long and slim, so nothing sinks to the bottom. I can find my keys without emptying the whole bag, definately a win.

1You find a handbag online that looks like $300. It turns up in a plastic satchel, and the first thing you notice is the smell. Chemical. Plasticky. Up close it looks like a $15 bag from the bargain bin.
2You keep it anyway. Three months in, the handles start peeling right where they sit on your shoulder. The edges crack. You try to send it back and they offer you store credit. So you're stuck with the same choice again. $400 for a designer label, or $15 for a bag that falls apart.
There's a better way. Elsaria makes structured, minimal everyday handbags that look like the designer ones, without the label markup. You pay for the bag, not the label. So it costs a fraction and still looks good long after the cheap ones have peeled.
Long Slim Shoulder Bag: 33 × 12 × 12 cm
Cheap handbags use a paper-thin coating glued onto fabric, so it cracks at the first fold. Ours use dense, structured PU or soft, uncoated faux suede. Nothing thin, nothing to flake.
Peeling always starts at the edges. We seal and paint every edge by hand, layer by layer, so wear has nowhere to get in.
Handles and straps are stitched right through, exactly where cheap bags give up first. A full day of phone, wallet, water bottle and sunnies won't pull them loose.
No chemical smell when you open the box. Every handbag airs out for 48 hours before it's packed, so it smells of nothing but new.

I dress women for boardrooms and Sunday brunch, and I tell every one of them the same thing: nobody can read your label from across the room. They see the shape, the colour and how you carry it. Elsaria gets all three right, for a fraction of the price.
The look and the room of a designer handbag. None of the markup, none of the peeling.

You unpack it and notice what's missing: that chemical smell. You pop it on your shoulder and head straight for the mirror.
Phone, keys, sunnies, lippy. Everything has its spot, so your phone is in your hand before the doors open.
Straight from the office to the bar, no swapping bags. Someone asks where it's from. You decide whether to tell them.
Same shape, same colour, edges still clean. It's the handbag you reach for without thinking.
Take it to work, to brunch, on the train. If it isn't the handbag you hoped for, send it back within 90 days of delivery and we refund you in full, straight to your card. A real refund, never store credit.
Every colour is photographed. If a photo shows another colour, it says so. Colours can look a little different on screens. You have 90 days from delivery to return it.
In about 1 to 2 weeks, delivered free anywhere in Australia. Your expected dates are shown right under the button.
Yes. You have 90 days from delivery, not from the day you order. Send it back unused and we refund you when it arrives. If you simply change your mind, the return postage is yours. Faulty or wrong? We refund you and you keep it.
Put her address at checkout and it goes straight to her door.
No. It has two long handles for your shoulder and no crossbody strap.

Handles snug over my puffer
Sits perfectly on the shoulder over a jumper. Over my puffer jacket the handles are a bit snug and it keeps sliding off. Nice bag for warmer days.
