Description
This stylish crossbody bag features a deep burgundy/merlot vegan leather exterior with a trendy U-shaped whipstitch detail on the front flap. A large matching fringe tassel hangs from the side for a bohemian touch. Includes an adjustable shoulder strap and a magnetic snap closure. Perfect for festivals or casual daily wear.
Key Features
Popular burgundy 'fall' colorway, trendy boho aesthetic, whipstitch detailing, large statement tassel, practical crossbody size.
Authenticity Indicators
Low confidence for designer status. The raw edges of the straps and the synthetic sheen indicate a mass-market retail origin rather than a luxury brand like Chloe (which this style mimics).
Flaws to Note
Visible surface scratches/scuffs on the front smooth panel; slight pilling on the synthetic tassel; minor wear on the piping/edges.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark, Mercari, or Depop for a younger audience. Facebook Marketplace for a quick local sale to avoid shipping costs that might exceed item value.
Selling Tips
Style it as a 'Boho Festival Bag.' Highlight the 'Deep Wine' or 'Oxblood' color in keywords. Clean the surface with a damp cloth and use a tiny amount of leather conditioner (on a hidden spot first) to see if scuffs can be buffed out. Best listed in late August through October.
