CC Skye 1945 Bullet Bag

Who doesn’t like vintage handbags? Digging around in grandma’s closet can lead to all sorts of wonderful treasures! So glamorous and sophisticated, there is just something about vintage handbags that make you feel like one chic little fashonista! This feeling is also really hard to match, there really is no comparison. Well… until now! Meet The 1945 Bullet Bag from CC Skye! This bag may not be vintage, but its vintage-inspired style will definitely give you that vintage glam feeling!What I love most about this bag is its classic trapezoid shape and double frame closure. See that large lock perched on top? Each side of the lock opens one side of the divided interior. I guess that makes this bag classy AND organized! I also love the glazed, snake-embossed leather. It prevents this style from looking to “Plain Jane”. Plus the optional shoulder strap offers some extra versatility! It definitely looks the most glam when held in hand, but it is always nice to have that shoulder strap available just in case you find your hands full! Pair this classic beauty with a dressy blouse and black cigarette pants or pencil skirt. Feeling a bit more casual? Try pairing it with a pair of this season’s floaty shorts!The CC Skye The 1945 Bullet Bag can be found at ShopBop, where it is available in Black Python!

  1. Hi,
    I recently purchased this bag and it is gorgeous, however I found that when I tried carrying the bag using the shoulder strap the bag would not stay closed. As you mentioned the closure on top is quite large and it is very heavy so when it is carried with the shoulder strap instead of the handles the weight of the double lock closure causes the bag to flop open on one or both side(s). I'm very sad that I will have to send the bag back!!
