Rebecca Minkoff bags... Any good?

I’m coveting some of her bags:

The Regan satchel tote:

The Mac Crossbody

The backpack

Does anyone have any of these and how practical are they for daytime use? I need to fit a large wallet, an iPhone 7, keys, lip balm etc... I like to be able to access my phone easily.

Is the quality good? Any advice would be much appreciated! I hadn’t heard of this brand until I saw one of her bags in TK Max and was struck by how lovely it was (too small for my needs though!)

I have 3 of her small bags - a mini MAC, a mini Crosby and a mini 5-zip. The quality is great though on my purple MAC the corners have a bit of wear. It's like the colour is painted onto the piping. My others are beige and grey with no issues and the hardware is great quality.

I can't comment on the size though unfortunately. The ones I have literally fit a purse, phone, keys and foldable shopper.

I would advise checking here - that's where I got my Crosby and 5 zip from.

Thank you PNG! I’ll take a look. I’m only interested in Black with gold hardware. Good to know the quality is good on the beige and grey.

The MAC and the Mini Mac get a lot of good reviews.

I've only seen one - the regan satchel. I think it's okay but get it on sale.

I’m hoping there might be a Black Friday deal coming up on it Really!

I'm sure there will be. Keep an eye on Shopbop.com.

terrible terrible quality, if you are looking for a mid range bag go for Furla, aspinal, or kate spade.

Oh that’s a shame Ana. Have you have a bad experience with them?
I like Kate Spade etc but I do love the ‘edginess’ of the Minkoff bags. I love the buckles and the tassels etc.

I would LOVE a Balenciaga Motorcycle... have done since they came out around 2004!

i have a couple of her julian backpacks. Fantastic for travel and not too expensive. Quality is fair for price paid (you can usually find them on sale eventually - don't pay full price).

That was exactly why I bought the regan - because I wanted a Balenciaga! :)

I think it's ok. Try to get it at at least 20-30% off. The one I purchased was the moon colour. Got it for 50% off at Shopbop - the neutral colours were not on deep discount. I returned it though because the colour won't work for my.

I have to agree though Furla is so much better in quality. But they don't have the moto edginess of Rebecca Minkoff :)
