Kate Spade x Minnie Mouse Mini Maise Reveal + Review
I remember when photos leaked of the Kate Spade Minnie Mouse Collection at the beginning of the year. I knew immediately that this would be the item I would have to get my hands on. Only a few pieces were released during the Spring and Summer. I gave up hope and just wrote it off because I thought maybe it was a rumor. Then it popped up one day and in September and there was a 25% off deal going on. It was fate. I snagged myself one as a birthday gift to myself. I have loved this bag since the moment I opened the package. While there are some serious pros and cons to the bag, overall I am so satisfied and am completely in love with my purchase.
Pros And Cons:
Pros: The ears are always perked up and standing. I was worried they would be floppy. The bow is stiff, but still soft. It’s always in its place. The Kate Spade logo doesn’t take over the design. It is subtle while still being noticeable. The leather is smooth and doesn’t mark easily. The inside lining is striped and doesn’t mark easily, as well.
Cons: So tiny. I repeat. So tiny. I have to play tetris to put in my items and keep the bag zipped. Luckily, I can get away with the bare minimum in my handbag. Since the leather is firm and well made, this bag doesn’t have much give when it comes to stretching out; which I love. However, it comes with a disadvantage because you don’t have much give to get in every item you may need in the bag.
What I Can Fit Inside:
Tory Burch Card Holder: Mainly homes my license, credit cards, etc. (You can find a similar one here!)
Tory Burch Zip Pouch: I carry extra bits that don’t need to be in my regular card holder. Such as my Esthetics license, rewards cards, etc. (You can find a similar one here!)
Keys: I love my little pouch that holds my keys. I purchased mine from Etsy.
Car Clicker: Essential.
Roller Ball Perfume: My favorite to carry with me is the Lancome La Vie Est Belle.
Monq’s: Portable aromatherapy diffusers. Use my code to get a discount off yours today - WOAHHALEIGH10
Beauty Blender Blotterazzi: I have found this is so essential for days when I tend to get more oily.
Lip Product: This day I had my Benefit Lolli Balm.
Clear Quartz: Crystal collection coming soon.
While this bag may not go with everything, I still choose to make it a part of my everyday style now. It brings me so much happiness to look down and see Minnie. All other Disney nerds will feel me on that. If you are considering taking the plunge, go ahead and do it! This bag is everything a Disney fan could want and more.
