Regular: $495.00

This "love or loathe" post is not so much about the Jaime bag (which is beautiful by the way!) but on the leather shoulder strap the Jaime bag includes.

I have noticed that more an more handbags are coming with an optional shoulder strap- and I couldn't be more thrilled with that trend! I always end up wearing a messenger-esque bag when I go out shopping, so my hands are free to select and hold clothes easily. I have tons of hand bags and clutches, but find I don't use them as often since they can be difficult for me to carry (along with 12 hangers of clothes I want to try on in the changing room of J.Crew.) ;)

What do you think of the shoulder strap addition to hand bags? Are you a fan? Would you wear the optional shoulder strap or remove it?
