Is it just me or does it look like Juicy Couture was inspired by a Balenciaga “City” when the company designed the “Easy Rider China C Satchel?” From the shape to the long shoulder strap, everything screams Balenciaga. I will admit though, if Juicy Couture was inspired by a Balenciaga “City” with this bag, they did a decent job designing their own version of the popular bag.

My least favorite feature about this bag are the exterior flap pockets with the logo-embossed hardware. I think the hardware is way too gaudy for this simple bag. The hardware acts like an eye sore on the bag, and you can’t help but fixate your eyes on it when looking at the bag. Perhaps if the hardware was a little smaller it wouldn’t look so tacky. Then again, if you didn’t have that huge logo-embossed hardware featured on the handbag, then you would probably never know that this bag was by Juicy Couture.

The satchel does come in three colors: black, brown and red. I usually gravitate towards black handbags but for reason I’m loving this bag in red. The red version looks the best and most stylish with all that huge hardware on it.

The Juicy Couture “Easy Rider China C” Satchel can be purchased at Nordstrom for $328. Not that bad of a price for a Juicy Couture handbag but the question is, is it worth it? I’ll leave that for you to decide.
