If you follow me then I think it is no secret that I am a casual handbag addict, a connoisseur, a collector.
It is where I consistently choose to splurge when it comes to my wardrobe, and I feel it is such a key element in completing my looks. I may have expensive taste in handbags, but I see them as investments.
Today’s post is a handbag reveal of the latest addition to my collection – my Chloe Drew. Read more to hear about my initial thoughts, if I would recommend this bag, and see how I style it with a comfy winter look.

Have you ever felt the giddiness of finding an unexpected deal or when an item you are looking at is not only the last item in the store, but also happens to be in your size? That is what happened when I found my Chloe Drew in the after Christmas Sales.
I previously introduced this handbag in a blog post last week where I styled my Chloe Drew with a ruffled plaid jacket for a winter look that’s classic but with a trendy twist.
MY THOUGHTS ON THE CHLOE DREW HANDBAG
So, how did I score a deal on this handbag?
I decided to pop into my local Neiman Marcus because I saw online there was a sale on handbags, and I clearly couldn’t miss that. Much to my surprise this Chloe Drew was sitting on the sale table and had only been on the floor for about 10 minutes.
Lucky, right?!
I tried it on and fell in love, and instantly knew it would become a fast staple in my wardrobe. I have had that feeling before (like with these metallic Sam Edelman mules), and I have not been wrong yet when I get this feeling.
When you can instantly think of various items in your wardrobe that would pair well with it then it is usually a good sign the item will be worth the investment. I am already pleased with this bag, and I have no idea why I didn’t purchase it sooner.
The design is simple so it will go with everything and black is timeless. The leather is grained and feels sturdy – like it could hold up to everyday activities. The chain is surprisingly comfortable to wear on the shoulder and as a crossbody bag. I think the gold hardware also adds a little bit of elegance to an otherwise very simple bag.
Would I recommend the Chloe Drew?
I’ve only worn it every day since I purchased it so I think I will let that speak for itself.
