MICHAEL by Michael Kors Selma Large East West Satchel

I was wanting to buy a Selma since like forever but we don't have a showroom here and when I heard that Quest Mall at Kolkata had a MK store as well, I was literally jumping. So, when I went to my mom's place we quickly made plans and went to Kolkata for shopping mostly :P

See my Kolkata Haul Post, HERE.

I had already decide what I wanted to buy, Michael Kors Selma Large in the color white but it was Out Of Stock and I had a hard time deciding the color. I am glad that I bought the bright red ( which looked more orange at the showroom ) instead of the white,which would get dirty easily. 

The Selma comes in four sizes ~ Small, Medium, E/W Large, and N/S Large) and a dozen colors. It has elements of the Birkin ~ similar dimensions, a structured, boxy shape and metal feet and the Prada tote ~ simple top handle design with a logo in the front and constructed of the same material - saffiano leather.

The interior of the bag has a monogram lining. It is very spacious, with lots of pockets and a strap attachment for keys. The bag has a detachable, adjustable long strap, metal feet and  handheld straps which fold down. I am completely in love with this bag and I think its perfect for travel/work.

Now coming to the not-so-good part ~ I paid ₹36000 for this bag and I am so regretting right now :( I will tell you why?

Have you heard of ShopBop? Its an online boutique and one of the leading fashion retailers in the world.

And the REGRET PART comes here. At Shopbop, the Bag is available for $468.62 only, after paying the customs i.e. ₹28450 approx. I am still not being able to digest the fact that I paid almost 7.5K extra for the bag. So, you guys, if you have this particular bag in your mind, don't make the same mistake as I did and go buy it from Shopbop HERE.

Happy Shopping
