Kate Spade Outlet Has the Prettiest Satchel for 78% Off, and It’s Perfect for Spring and Summer

I don’t own a tremendous amount of handbags because it’s my personal belief that you only need one “good,” classic bag in each style: a clutch, a crossbody, a belt bag, a backpack, and, of course, a tote bag. But through my years of commuting, traveling, and having and watching kids, I’ve learned the handbag style that matters most is the satchel—a convenient cross between a crossbody and a tote bag. One of my favorites, the Rae Medium Satchel, is now only $89 at Kate Spade Outlet.

Satchel bags have the interior space of a tote bag, but the structure and long, wearable strap of a crossbody. These handbags are usually mid- to large-sized and feature a flat bottom—unlike tote bags, which can’t stand by themselves and tend to collapse instead. This bag is no bottomless pit where you’ll lose all your most-used items. Instead, the Rae Medium Satchel functions kind of like a briefcase, yet has all the style sensibility of a runway.

The Rae Medium Satchel adds a dose of “quiet luxury” to your wardrobe, even if its price fits more into the “affordable luxury” category. Now that it is 78% off, you can grab it for less than $100 from now until May 1. Given the timing, it makes for a super sweet Mother’s Day gift that the mother figure in your life will appreciate. 

It’s available in three spring-friendly colorways—white, pastel pink, and light blue—as well as the ever-classic black. In true satchel fashion, the bag features two short, carrying handles as well as a long, adjustable strap that can be added on. The strap adjusts to 24 inches at its longest, and should sit right above the hip so its contents are easily accessible.

The Rae includes an interior back zip pocket and an interior compartment that is roomy enough to fit an iPhone 13 Pro Max, a 9.7-inch iPad, A4 paper, and a large continental wallet. It’s compact yet spacious, which means you won’t find it too bulky to commute or travel with, or too small to fit your essentials.

The Rae Medium Satchel is marked down by 78% off from now until May 1 at Kate Spade Outlet, and it’s sure to hold all of your essentials (with room for more). Grab the popular handbag style for just $89, and be sure to shop more customer-loved styles below.
