Bought the Elena bag from Khaite as I have just been obsessed with the brand and its aesthetic. I was disappointed… the leather was nice but not $2,000 nice. The color also wasn’t as “caramel” as the website photo. I sent it back. Maybe their suede styles are better? I might order a warmer style bag in the fall as I still love the brand.

For that price from a smaller brand the leather should be pretty frickin' amazing! The style looks really cool but without the great leather it's only halfway there. 🤷‍♀️

Yeah it did give the same luxe vibe that you get from the big houses. It also is an awkward fit on the shoulder.

There’s a mini style with studs I may try as a going out bag though. I also love the Maeve in suede. I may try again soon!

The studded one is so cute! But I feel like the studs will become outdated at some point though..
