Is the Blair Vanity big enough for a phone?

Yes, a standard phone fits, along with a cardholder, keys and a lipstick. It will not take a full-size wallet or a water bottle.

Does the strap come off?

Yes, the strap is detachable, so the bag can be carried crossbody, over the shoulder or as a small handheld case.

Kate Spade makes the Blair in leather with a quilted, shiny finish. Check the material line on the specific listing before buying.

How does it compare with a Kate Spade camera bag?

The Blair is smaller and more structured, with a vanity-case shape. A camera bag holds more and has a softer body, but looks less dressy.

Can it work as an evening bag?

Yes. Its compact boxy shape and quilted shine suit dinners, weddings and nights out better than a tote.

What fits inside besides a phone?

A cardholder or small wallet, keys, lipstick and a compact. Anything larger crowds the single compartment.

Our take on the Kate Spade New York Blair Shiny Quilted Vanity Crossbody

The Blair is Kate Spade's take on the vanity case: a small, structured crossbody with a zip-around top, a boxy quilted body and a detachable strap. It holds a phone, cardholder, keys and a lipstick, not much more, so it suits evenings and light days rather than commutes. Against Kate Spade's softer satchels and totes it trades capacity for a dressier, jewelry-box look. Owners like the quilted shine and the zip that opens wide; the usual complaint is that it is small and the strap is thin.
