Is the Carmela bag leather or suede?

It is genuine suede with leather trim. The suede body is the part that needs the most care.

Can it be worn crossbody?

Yes. The strap is convertible, so it works on the shoulder or across the body.

What fits inside the medium size?

A phone, wallet, keys and a few small items. It is not sized for a tablet or a large water bottle.

How should I care for the suede?

Keep it out of rain and brush it dry. A suede protector spray helps, especially on the lighter honeywheat shade.

Which colors are available?

Camel and honeywheat. Both are neutral, but honeywheat shows marks more easily.

How does it compare with a smooth-leather Michael Kors crossbody?

The Carmela has a softer, more textured look, but smooth leather resists rain and stains better. Pick the Carmela for the suede finish, not for low maintenance.

About the Michael Kors Carmela Medium Suede Convertible Crossbody Bag

The Carmela is a medium convertible crossbody from Michael Kors, made of suede with leather trim and a zip top. It can be worn on the shoulder or crossbody thanks to its adjustable strap. Reviewers rate it highly for the soft suede, the neutral camel and honeywheat shades and the secure zip, though some find it smaller in person than expected and note that suede needs careful handling. Against smooth-leather crossbodies in the same line, it trades easy cleaning for a softer, more seasonal look.
