I saw a similar style without the studs. The leather is beautiful and looks well made. Hope that helps!

That's the one I love!! I need to see this IRL...I'd love to know if the chain strap is long enough to wear cross body.

What a beauty! I haven't seen it IRL yet (looks like it's on preorder, and Nordstrom doesn't have it on their site either). But it's stunning. I love how the gold really pops against the black leather. So gorgeous.

I just called about the bag the SA said the leather is so soft and gorgeous ! Not heavy, and can be worn on the shoulder (the short straps) I am definitely going to check it out!

I just saw it Thursday. It is as gorgeous as it looks and pretty light for a bag that size. The shoulder strap is long enough to wear the bag comfortably to the side. To me, it didn't seem long enough to wear it crossbody, especially if you put a lot of stuff in it, though you might be able to depending on your size and if you don't mind armpit bags.

Lately, I'm really into satchels that come with a long shoulder strap. I love carrying a bag like this one on my arm or handheld, and using the shoulder strap only when I need to free both hands.

This Astor Uptown tote is a great choice!

I've seen this exact bag IRL and I would say that it isn't long enough to comfortably wear as a crossbody. The Astor Uptown is a good choice, it is a classic MK style!!

I've had this one for a couple of years and it stands up really well. Mine is black with silver studs.
