I could totally see Carrie Bradshaw wearing it if <em>Sex and the City<\/em> was still around. Not to mention it takes its name from the 90s sitcom <em>Friends<\/em> character that has become an icon since her time on the small screen. The By Far team created a bag inspired by the ones she wore on the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the bag is <em>so<\/em> practical, as well which is why I knew it was a no-brainer purchase once I saw it go on sale at <a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+4dTAqXYX-0lV7lCGzYe_Hg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Printemps<\/a> this July. It\u2019s a small bag meant to hold just the essentials like your wallet, phone, lipstick, and keys. It fits exactly those items, nothing more, nothing less. I love that the strap is short and I can clutch it between my arm and my body tightly. When I have a crossbody bag with a long strap, I&#8217;m always worried someone could steal what&#8217;s inside so easily because it hangs down so loosely! With this bag, I don&#8217;t have to worry about that at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have needed a <em>minaudi\u00e8re<\/em> bag for quite some time, and even though this bag isn\u2019t completely upscale, it fits my needs for a casual chic night-out handbag perfectly! It&#8217;s subtle and minimally chic \u2013 very Parisian. Two of my friends in Paris even own this bag which was great for me to see it in person before buying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1054\" height=\"1406\" src=\"https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472.jpg\" alt=\"Victoria Petersen wearing the By Far Black Patent Leather Rachel Bag in Paris\" class=\"wp-image-1720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472.jpg 1054w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-110x147.jpg 110w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-200x267.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-380x507.jpg 380w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-255x340.jpg 255w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-550x734.jpg 550w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_4472-800x1067.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1054px) 100vw, 1054px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" src=\"https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_3771.jpg\" alt=\"By Far Black Patent Leather Rachel Bag\" class=\"wp-image-1721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_3771.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_3771-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/By-Far-Rachel-Bag_IMG_3771-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I have seen this bag for sale at so many different luxury online retailers.
