Mishqua Bag Review

A few months ago I was introduced to Mishqua Handbags and Accessories by a friend. After visiting their website and looking through products it’s no wonder why I fell in love with everything they offer. Mishqua, named for the creator and owner, sells bags, scarves, sunglasses and fun temporary tattoos (perfect for a girls beach trip!)
The Merlot Satchel carries like a small handbag but can fit so much more. I recently brought it on my trip to Portland where it rained most of the time and the water didn’t affect the bag one bit. Less is definitely more when traveling and I didn’t want to bring along a big bulky bag especially when I wouldn’t be carrying sippy cups, wipes or diapers. I was able to fit my camera, makeup, water bottle and wallet. The color is that of a fine red wine and pairs well with everything in my closet. I tend to wear a lot of black and this bag adds just the right amount of color to any outfit without going overboard.

The craftsmanship on this bag is excellent. I’ve been using it non stop for the past 8 weeks and it’s held up wonderfully with no signs of wear or tear. It is made from vegan leather and features a beautiful floral lined interior which adds the perfect pop of color. There is also a zippered closure which is excellent if you’re carrying around a camera, iPad or other expensive items that you don’t want everyone seeing and it also protects valuables from nasty weather. Speaking of cameras and iPads, this bag can carry my Nikon, tablet, wallet, baby wipes. sunglasses and body splash and I still have room for more. 

There are 3 exterior pockets: two on the front side and one in the back middle. I always keep my phone in the back one (I have the iPhone 6 Plus and it fits just fine) and smaller items which tend to get lost in a big section go in the front two pockets: chapstick, breath mints, hand sanitizer and sunglasses. There is also a detachable shoulder strap which I haven’t used yet but I love that the option is there.

Right now Mishqua is having a sale on all their bags so be sure to check them out. Mother’s Day is just around the corner and these bags are the perfect gift for any lady in your life. xo!
