I’m not normally a wicket or top-handle only gal but I’m intrigued by this bag. Does anybody own this? Curious if the flap on top is magnetic or what.

I own it! The flap isn't magnetic – it actually doesn't have anything to secure it closed at all. It just rests on the top of the basket. It's definitely not a bag I'd bring somewhere crowded or where I need a securely shut bag, since the lid is just... gently sitting there!

How do you like it? Is it worth it?

I've been using it for dinners out and date nights, and I like it! Its price isn't too bad, and if you're looking for a summer-y bag that makes a statement, it's definitely worth it! It's also quite tall and holds a decent amount, and the flap top makes it easy to reach into without any fuss. However, it's not exactly practical for everyday use.

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll think about it.

If I didn't have the Huit, I might consider the Yke. Very Birkin basket vibes.
