Insomniac Sale Picks: Frame Handbags

*In this late-night feature – which will run Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of each week – I’ll gather up three fun items that are currently on sale online and share them with you! I would LOVE suggestions: Stylish wide-width pumps? Classic v-necked sweaters? Chandelier earrings? Petite dress slacks? What would you like to see featured?*

Marta requested a few picks for frame handbags – preferably with kiss lock closures – so here we go:

Carter Frame Satchell – was $59.74, now $51.95

Marta was looking for frame/kiss lock bags that weren’t overly costume-y or retro-influenced, and I think this one fits the bill. Although this is, technically, a hinge lock it has the same vibe as a kiss lock and the bag itself is chic and minimalist. This is a vegan bag and is available in this cognac and black leatherette. Bag is 9″ high x 5″ wide.

Koret Well Bred Framed Satchel – was $328, now $135.99

This little love is a bit more retro, but still versatile and modern. That faux snake print incorporates black, brown, and gray, making this bag a neutral mix in and of itself! Also available in snake with olive green trim. This is a leather bag and its dimensions are 12.5″ x 7.5″ x 3.5″. (Actually, Koret has lots of great frame bags)

Emma Fox Dressage Frame Shoulder Bag – was $298, now $222.99

This is a fabulously roomy bag with great details. It looks mighty triangular here, but other images of it being carried make me think it relaxes a bit when full of normal purse contents. Bag is 18″ x 14″ x 4″ and made from real leather. If the two-tone thing doesn’t send you, check out this Emma Fox bag in solid white, cobalt, or black that also features frame construction and a kiss lock. (Not on sale, sadly.)

Other not-currently-on-sale resources for frame handbags:

1. Amazon – More than 200 options with kisslocks and frame designs!
2. eBay – Many are used, of course, but there are thousands of fun options from leather to cloth and in a huge variety of sizes and designs.
3. Hobo International – This company nearly always has a few frame and kisslock options. Love this simple, elegant frame bag.
