I don't think you could look unpolished while carrying this bag! It is just gorgeous and the cosmetics case is totally adorable, too.
Yoonmee says
I love the simplicity of this bag. It's very functional for everyday use, but the knots prove it's not your average tote bag by any means! Lovely!
Cynthia says
I'm already a subscriber to A Few Goody Gumdrops and I'm a fan on Katherine's already on facebook! I absolutely love the bag! It would go well with so many outfits (yay for versatility). It's also very elegant, but it can be carried around on a casual day out shopping. The matching cosmetic case is an added plus! I hope I win this! I've never owned a designer handbag or anything worth $610!
Libby says
I think my comment (below) on Katherine's Facebook page sums up exactly how I feel about this handbag!
My mouth is watering! This handbag (and the matching cosmetics case) is absolutely gorgeous. The bag is so classic looking but the eternity knot (with its constrasting colors) and the small, metallic leather details really give the look of this handbag an edge! I can't think of time when this handbag would ever go out of fashion–it is simply timeless looking–beatiful and luxurious!
If I win this contest, I will pledge the following:
I promise to love and cherish my new handbag in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad, and in joy as well as in sorrow. I promise to love my new handbag unconditionally, to support its goals, to honor and respect it, to laugh and to cry with it, and to cherish it for as long as we both shall live. 🙂 I also promise to also keep her in a dustbag at night. 🙂
Thanks a million for the entry! I am obviously so exctied that I am delirious!!!]

Shoes and clothes are never a problem, but finding just the right bag is never easy for me. I open my email newsletter from you this morning and HERE IT IS – MY BAG! I love this bag so much. I don't care for the excessive metal and chains look of bags that has been popular recently so this is perfect.
And those knots – I really, really like them!
Way to Go – Katherine Kwei!
Samy says
The colors could go with anything and the simple detailing is classy.

As for this beauty and it's little makeup bag, I adore the knot design and the colors. I've heard neutrals are the new black this season, so I would love to have this addition to my handbag collection!

I am completely enamored with the signature knot weave on all Katherine Kwei bags! What makes this bag so special is that it's a timeless classic that I could carry for many years. It would be great to carry to work or to
a soccer game and could hold all my essentials! Not to mention, I would feel so chic pulling the adorable cosmetics case out of my bag to search for my lipstick! So much better than the ziploc bag I'm now using!!
nightowl says
Both of these are so classy.
I can imagine myself using these on a regular basis. I like that they are so unique and I love the eternity knot.

Katherine Kwei's handbags are breathtaking beyond words! I have been admiring her exquisite designs for some time now & they are just delightful! I find this Kate Carry-All and matching Cosmetic Case most appealing because it has an alluring classy look to it, but is also very hip and fashion forward in design. It is both casual and elegant at the same time and can be worn by day and by night. I will be the most stylish soccer Mom ever when I show up wearing this on my arm! With 3 young kids this will easily accommodate all that I have to carry with me on a daily basis and even leave room for my own personal goodies! I have always been drawn to Asian inspired embellishments so the fact that this handbag has Katherine's distinctive Chinese ''Eternity'' knot-inspired weave gives this handbag that unique eye catching stand out in a crowd look. It would be a dream come true to own this exceptional handbag, and it would become my very favorite handbag of all time!

The color, the metallic leather, the eternity knot, the matching cosmetic case = stunning! I really like that this is great as a daytime or a nighttime bag. I don't think I've ever owned such a pretty cosmetics case. I am already a subscriber and I was already a Facebook fan of Katherine's (commented as Lydia Ale).

I love Katherine Kwei's bags but I am not a member of facebook. Therefore, I will comment here and hope it is accepted. I am a subscriber to AFGG. I think this bag is so great for spring and summer.I love the fact that the bag goes so well with neutral tones , prints, florals and whites. This is the perfect everyday tote and how great to have a matching accessory! Fabulous giveaway. kashigirl14@aol.com

There are so many reasons why I love Katherine Kwei's handbags. I feel each and every bag is a piece of art and that you not only get to purchase the art, but you get to wear it. When I carry one of her bags my confidence immediately rises. I feel like I can dress in simple jeans and a t-shirt carry one of her bags on my arm and I feel like a fashionista. I love handbags to the point of obsession and Katherine Kwei by far is my favorite designer. I hope that I will be able to win this bag and cosmetic case it would be such a wonderful gift. Good luck to everyone!!!

my post was above the Jane said comment
N says
LOL. How can I even compete with a wonderful story like the one above?
I will leave a comment though! I have been a fan of Katherine Kwei's bags for a while now and I have been searching high and low for ANY of her bags/accessories as they are not available for purchase in brick and mortar shops where I am.
I am of Chinese descent and I immediately recognized the knotting in her bags as I was taught them as a child by my grandmother. It definitely isn't an easy task to do what KK has done with these bags. The incorporation of the knots with leather is unique and definitely one of a kind. No one would ever misidentify a KK bag with the beautiful knots detailing it.
The KK Kate Carry-All would be a great accessory for my mom because she tends to gravitate towards the typical black bag/tote. Everything she owns is usually thrown into her bag and I think this would be fantastic for her to tote around as she is finally going on a well deserved vacation with my dad. The cosmetic case would be perfect for her BB since she is always attached to her phone and lipbalm 😀
I've also been a fan of KK's FB page and this blog is now on my blog roll!

This bag is amazing. I am in love with this fact that this giveaway contains both a handbag and a cosmetics bag. I love things that are dual purpose because I'm all about functionality. The silver color would great to wear everyday because it would match almost any outfit.
If I were to win, I would give this to my mom. She loves big bags. Throughout my whole life, that woman has carried big bags and still manages to fill it up until it overflows–something that I will never understand.
Thank you!!

The bag and case have a winning combination of classic, timelessness and chic. I also love the color, as it's fresher than black, yet it's neutral and can be worn with anything. If I won, I would covet it forever!

I've done both the requirements (signed up for email feed & became a fan of Katherine Kwei on FB). I want to win this purse because I think it would be a great Mother's Day gift for my older sister, J, because she's the modern Super Mommy in my opinion. Working full-time and taking care of her family in addition to helping out my parents all these years.. she does it all! She makes me feel like the spoiled little sister, which she jokingly calls me sometimes :-\

Am LOVING this bag! The colour, the structuredness of it, the handles…I love how the knot was incorporated into the design too. So stylish. I too am Chinese so I understand its purpose but this makes it so much more stylish and unique. Does it matter that I actually need a bag too!? And a makeup case?
This looks like a really sturdy bag too. Wonderful!
I liked Katherine's FB page and posted there too!

I adore this bag! The knotted detail really does it for me. The color is amazing…it would match everything! I also love the slouchy factor of its silhouette. It's too gorgeous for words! I'd love to tote it to school…imagine pulling a notebook out of this bag? I'd easily be the most fashionable girl in the room and how fab would that be?
