About These Hanfu Purse CrossBody Bags

This Chinese antique-style crossbody bag shaped like a butterfly boasts exceptionally exquisite embroidery. What’s more surprising is that it features a double-sided and dual-color design, meaning buying one purse lets you enjoy two styles! One side is a butterfly with magenta wings, gentle and lovely; the other side is a butterfly with blue-green wings, lively and playful. Three light yellow tassels hang below the purse, and when the breeze blows, the tassels sway gracefully, just like a butterfly dancing lightly. Matched with a white beaded chain as a shoulder strap, the overall design is elegant and eye-catching. It is practical in capacity, capable of holding small items such as mobile phones, lipsticks, tissues, and keys. The butterfly shape is delicate and lively, and no matter what clothing it is paired with, it is particularly unique and brilliant.
