Thank you for that. AND THE AMAZING BAG. I have been using it everyday. Such a good size for all my needs. I don’t have to wear ugly backpack or cramp everything into my smaller bags anymore. Game changer for me.
Very high quality all around!! I have used this tote regularly throughout the past 8 years and it looks the same with zero effort. It can hold a lot of weight comfortably with the wide straps. The shape of it when buttoned up gets many compliments. I have the black one and it really does look like genuine leather. If anything ever happens to it I’ll buy another.
I spotted this adorable bag at the NWGS, but I couldn’t resist the urge to walk away. I kept thinking about how cute it was and how much I regretted not getting it. So, I reached out to Crystalynkae’s business chat and asked if the bag was still available. To my surprise, they were kind enough to invoice and ship it right to me! The quality is amazing, and it’s definitely my favorite bag for everyday use. It’s light, roomy, and one-of-a-kind. I’m definitely adding more of her bags to my collection.
After more than 10 years of almost daily use, here is my tribute to one tough bag! It's held up beautifully to trips across the world and through the washing machine. It's been sat on, spilled on, jumped on by pets, stuffed to the max or crammed into other luggage with no issues at all, and is still lovely, soft and shiny, zero problems with zippers and hardware. I'm retiring my bag (discontinued style) bc it's earned it and has finally started to show minor wear...after all this time. Signed, a happy (and now much older) customer.
We purchased the Chacha bundle, it includes a black chacha bag, a purple card case and a black wrap belt! They are all carefully designed and made in great quality we can feel, I especially like the adjustable lenth then hide inside detail for the bag, YKK zipper ,lightweight and water proof etc.
Nice customer service too!😉🥰
the mini troubadour in the custom fabric is so cute as all the other bags I have are, and dealing w the shop is so easy
Totally genius - i wish more brands offered this option. Thank you!

I have 4 of these hobos now. The navy is a really pretty, dark blue, great neutral. I love the coated canvas! These bags are well made, lightweight, and easy to care for. Also, I love how I can snap off the strap, which I didn't even realize when I ordered my first one. I was able to easily switch the strap around so that the buckle was on the front. So, you can easily replace or switch straps. That's a great feature!!
These bags are spacious, yet lightweight! Great craftsmanship, pockets, zipper, and I love how easy to care for the coated canvas is. Highly recommend!
