Mommy Mentor's Review of the Botkier Taylor Crossbody Handbag

The Botkier Taylor Crossbody handbag is a pretty amazing cross body bag...with a little attitude.  


She measures 16.5" wide x 4.5" deep x 13" high.  I would consider this a medium sized handbag. Great for daily use and especially those days where you need a cross body bag. 



The details on the Taylor are really nice.  I love the fringe and the extra leather accents.  For a neutral colored bag, the fringe adds some sass and spunk. 


The interior is a nice size that can fit my Belen Echandia Angel Purse and Zipper Wallet, snacks for my kids, and my coupons.  I can stand two water bottles up in it as well if I need for me or the kiddos.


There are two nicely sized slip pockets and one narrow one for a pen along the interior front of the Taylor Crossbody.


There is a zippered pocket along the back that is long enough to fit a travel pack of antibacterial wipes.


The front of the Taylor has a - for lack of better word- kangaroo pouch pocket that goes along the entire front of the bag.  Each side is secured with a magnet, but you can access everything inside here from either side. Great for Kleenexes, phones, keys, and all the random extras we carry.


The Botkier Taylor Crossbody can be worn on the shoulder or across the body.


Worn cross body, it sits right at the mid-hip.  I actually like that the strap is shorter because it does not hit my lower leg and toss the bag all over when I walk. The strap drop is 20 inches on the Botkier Taylor Crossbody.


One of my favorite things about Botkier bags is how lightweight they are.  The Taylor Crossbody proves true to that as well; whether you need to carry a little or a lot, on your shoulder or cross body, she can do it.

So what do you think of the Botkier Taylor Crossbody...and where do you stand on fringe?  Yay or Nay?

So cute- that sand pearl color looks like it is really versatile as well :)

It looks like a great bag! I'm not crazy about the fringe though.
