Sigrid Olsen purses have beautiful supple leather. They have their own stores, that mostly carry clothes but Dillard's carries a lot of their purses. I love that red one...haven't seen that one yet! The black ones are from the newest season I think.

You can't go wrong with Sigrid Olsen. Their wallets are beautiful too. Suede interiors. I just bought half a dozen on sale at the last Dillards sale. $79 down to $15!

Don't pay full price for Sigrid Olsen though...Dillards heavily discounts theirs and they go to 25% off very quickly and all the way down to 50-75% off.

That being said, their quality IS worth full price!

Sigrid Olsen is owned now by Liz Claiborne-so you can also get the bags at the LC Outlets-which always have coupons for 25-50% off if you sign up at their website. Of course you have to have an outlet nearby! That being said-their leather is very supple and the bag quality is excellent!

I just looked at Zappos. That's a great price on the red one...Normally Sigrid Olsen starts out near $299 brand new.

Good luck! I'd buy one!

I didn't know this was part of Liz Claiborne. That's interesting! I've never seen the bags, but I do like the store we have here. The styles are nice and the quality seems very good.

So, Liz Claiborne now owns Kate Spade AND Sigrid Olsen? I had no idea. I've been a big fan of KS and Sigrid Olsen for a long time, I hope the LC company doesn't change anything.

To answer the OP's question, I love Sigrid Olsen bags. The leathers are always very nice and the quality is fantastic, even at full price. Also, the designs are usually very practical.

I looked at some Sigrid Olsen bags the last time I was at Dillards and the leather on them was fantastic and the bags seem really well made. They seem like they are really good price for the quality.

I think the leather on Sigrid Olsen bags are yummy. I don't have one though, so I can't tell you how well they'll hold up. The prices are usually very decent. If I fell in love with one, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.

I have 2 Sigrid Olsen bags and the leathers are so soft. The interiors are gorgeous, too (I love a pretty lining.) I would highly recommend them.
