Gretchen Christine: The Must-Have Bag for Fall

StyleCandy WashingtonComment

Hi lovelies,

My go-to bag for Fall has to be the Gretchen Christine Devin Vegan Leather Dome Satchel in Nude. The iconic color goes with every outfit and I love that her whole collection is cruelty-free, so I can shop and be stylish without any guilt. 

The silhouette of the bag gives it a high-end, luxurious look like bags that retails for thousands of dollars, but I can get a luxuriously made, high-quality handbag, without spending a fortune. Gretchen Christine's philosophy is all about accessible luxury and everyday glamour. 

What was even more impressive than the collection of super stylish and cruelty-free handbags, purses, and accessories, is how kind and down-to-earth, the founder, Gretchen Rossi, is in-person. I had the pleasure of meeting her and her sweet disposition was in complete alignment with her brand's mission to add value to the lives of others while honoring people and animals.

Shop the entire collection, here.

 Accessible luxury.
Gretchen Christine exists as a result of the conviction that fashion and quality should be a standard– not an aspiration. Any product bearing the Gretchen Christine logo will always have an elevated sense of style, glamour, and quality—all while balancing a timeless and simple aesthetic. Every decision we make is based on the core principle that designer fashion and quality should be accessible to anyone and everyone. 

Everyday glamour.
Gretchen Christine exists for every girl who believes in always presenting her best self– no matter what the occasion. This "everyday glamour" is what drives us to create pieces that are both strikingly beautiful and inventively functional—because that’s what you deserve.

Staying true to our values.
The team at Gretchen Christine strives to uphold our core values of accessibility, style, kindness, and simplicity. As a result, we've worked tirelessly to develop a vegan leather formulation that is indistinguishable from animal leather, that also aims to make a positive environmental impact.
