If you know me, you know that I love small handbags. I'm always searching for stylish minis to add to my wardrobe. I’ve particularly searched for a black cylinder bag since the beginning of summer as my go-to day-to-night bag for fall/winter.
A few weeks ago, I was thumbing through Essence magazine's latest cover, The Fashion Issue, and surprisingly discovered the chicest terracotta-colored tube bag from a Black woman-owned e-commerce brand, Relevé. Praying it's not sold out, I go to the website and see the Cerène tube bag is also available in black, rose, sand, sage, and white. The high-quality, faux fur cylinder-shaped purse is a functional dream with enough room for the essentials: keys, cash, card, and lipstick. Each bag contains short and long adjustable straps for fashion girls who love versatility. You guessed it: I added the black tube beauty to my cart; the rest is history.
