Madewell-The Scholar Satchel

Just because you’re a Frugal Snob doesn’t mean you need a blah bag. Enter Madewell’s Scholar Satchel. The words “messenger bag” tend to make me gag, but this satchel is a chic messenger bag. Yes, there is such a thing. I would consider going back to school if one was required to be a “scholar” to actually carry this. Which says a lot, because I hated school. But the good news is, you don’t even have to be a scholar to carry it. Shocking, I know. The canvas bag comes in black and green and natural and canvas. Though the double straps give this bag a slight PS1 look, this is definitely not a copy. The Scholar Satchel would be a great addition to any Frugal Snob’s closet, Frugal Scholar or not.

  1. Hello! This is such a mulberry copycat! It does not remind me of a PS1, rather it is somewhere between an Alexa and a bayswater. Having said that, it is a nice chic bag all the way and for less than a 150$ it is even more covetable!

  2. It’s okay, maybe it’s the picture, but it looks dirty. Call me crazy, but I like to put my own wear and tear on a bag.

  3. Oh dear, this is the PERFECT bag for a Christmas present for someone special to me. So sad this is no longer sold by Madewell! Besides ebay, does anyone know where I might still find this item? Thanks in advance for any tips!
