Now, four years later, Bottega Veneta is at the top of the handbag game, arguably one of the most popular brands of the moment.

Celebrities Who Love The Jodie
I know this bag has been everywhere, but I think it will be a timeless style long term for Bottega. There’s no hardware, just beautiful leather… and amazing colors. The mini (I own 2 and am a mother of a toddler) are so easy to use day to night. It sits effortlessly on your arm/wrist and really adds a lot to an outfit. Obviously the larger sizes are a great day time bag. The “small” fits easily on the shoulder, but the teen can go day to night and is easy to wear in the hand or on your forearm. 1000% recco, and I’ve returned and sold dozens of bags in the past b/c they weren’t that easy to use or felt like they knot date easily.
This bag has been discussed ad nauseam! 😂 Next!
Seriously! I’m starting to hate it
