Kale by Comparison

Kale Handbags

Nice Marc Jacobs bag.

Bet it looks nice sitting next to your Vuitton, your Chanel, and your Kate Spade.

Not exactly a handbag rebel, are you? Perhaps it’s time to declare your independence?

Consider the radically stylish totes, satchels, and clutches from Kale Handbags, an L.A.-based company run by sisters Jennifer and Leslie Kale. Sophisticated yet fun, the bags are made of supple, durable leather in gorgeous colors developed just for the company (amber, olive, saddle, citrine, eggplant) and include everything from chic clutches (the Mulholland) to convertibles (the Essential) to roomy bags that actually look better the more you cram into them (the Daytripper).

True, they may not bring about a full-on fashion revolution.

But they’ll at least get you a little more left of center.
