Our durable leather goods are unlined, featuring the natural suede side of the hide. Because leather is a natural material, slight color and batch variations are normal. Factors like hide age, season, and dye absorption can all affect the final shade, making each piece uniquely yours.
Our leather is incredibly easy to care for. With time and use, the natural oils in the leather will rise to the surface, developing a beautiful patina and smoothing any scuffs or scratches that may have accumulated. Learn more about caring for your new leather product.
Full Grain: Meticulously sourced from the finest hides, this premium material boasts unique textures and character, showcasing nature's artistry at its best. As time passes, watch as its surface develops a unique patina, telling your personal journey through the years. Unlike processed leathers, full grain leather stands the test of time, due to its unmatched strength and resilience. Its dense fibers offer exceptional resistance to wear, cuts, and moisture, our full grain leather ensures lasting beauty that only gets better with age.
Top Grain: Top-grain starts from the same premium zone of the hide but is lightly sanded and finished for a more uniform surface. That light correction softens and evens the face while keeping most of the strength you want. Takes pigment and protective finishes beautifully, which helps with colorfastness and stain resistance. Ages gracefully, especially when we keep the finish thin enough to let the leather breathe and break in.
We use top-grain when a smoother cosmetic is the goal—think color consistency across large panels—without walking away from the core strength you expect from a Portland bag.
Pebbled: Unlike most brands that use artificial stamping methods to create patterns, our pebbled leather is achieved through a natural tumbling process. The distinctive raised, pebble-shaped texture adds sophistication and makes a bold statement wherever you go. But it's not just about looks—pebbled leather is built to last. Worried about daily wear and tear? Don’t be! The unique pebbled surface ages gracefully, developing a natural patina that will evolve for years to come!
Suede: Our suede leather begins with an intricate process: the hide is split to separate the soft underside from the top layer. This top layer is then tanned, buffed, sanded, and dyed to create the signature velvety texture that defines high-quality suede. Naturally slouchy and pliable, suede leather ages gracefully, developing a rich patina that tells its own story over time. Most natural imperfections are gently smoothed away during production, while subtle traces—like healed veining and the soft, napped surface—are preserved to celebrate the leather’s unique character and charm.

Squishy Pebbled Perfection
by: Maggie R.
I LOVE this bag! It fits everything I need, and is absolutely gorgeous - I love the magnetic closures inside the bag that help it keep its shape!
Obsessed 🤩 🍋🟩
by: Kristin S.
Want something new that’s lovely, out of the ordinary, and also quite functional? C’est Belle! This bag really surprised me. It’s especially fun and easy to shoulder or crossbody carry with a wide strap added! Can’t recommend her enough. This gorgeous shade of green is called Shadow Lime 🍋🟩 and I’m obsessed. Had to grab a matching Fortune Cookie for her, to keep my lipstick & antibac handy. Love!! This one’s a Large; I’m definitely getting another in either 🌶️ Chili Red or Evergreen 🌲, might try the Small for something different, but love the Large.
Belle Surprised Us All!
by: Donna M.
This was NOT a bag I thought I'd like. Turns out I was right, cuz I LOVE her. The leather is amazing, the pullups on color of Westward Blue are delicious. I'm normally a crossbody gal, but the grab handle on this one is swaying me. There's no inner pocket, but the flat base makes storing littles easy peasy! ♥️
Belle of the Ball
by: Kathy S.
I’m just loving my new large belle! The leather is super soft and squishy and the large pebbles make it unique! I’ve been getting compliments every time I wear it!
Belle for the win!
by: Janet G.
This is my second Belle. My first was the small Pinkaboo. I ordered the large in Evergreen and I love her. Belle is everything I like in a bag. Hoping PLG adds more colors.
Sunshine Belle is a dream
by: Mattie D.
I love the happy color and how floppy and soft she is. I got two coordinating Picasso tassels--one more spring/summer and one more fall so I can use her all the time.
The best bag!!
by: Amy G.
Absolutely obsessed with the belle bucket bag! I got the smaller one and it fits soooo much! I added my own bag chain to give it the perfect pop! So many compliments and so many asking where I got it!
Small Shadow Lime Belle
by: Lori
Absolutely love everything about this purse! It’s the perfect size, I’m 5’3” tall. ! I carry a bulky wallet, phone, key fob, sunglasses, snack and other small items. I received compliments all the time!
Star of the day!
by: Kathy G.
The Bell Bucket bag is the best! If you stand things up you can fit a lot. Eyeglass case, small Leather Journal, Pen, Cell phone, Small Zip wallet & small cosmetic bag. Beautiful leather. Highly recommend!
The Belle Bucket in Sunshine is beautiful 😍
by: Janell V.
The Belle Bucket in Sunshine is beautiful 😍 I got it in a small size and plan on getting more in small and large! It's very soft and slouchy! Love it!
Just so cute!
by: Monica G.
Love the size and shape of the small Belle! She is so cute to carry with or without the cross body strap! I usually carry a small koala and this fit everything easily.Purchased in honey and now thinking about one in sunshine!
The perfect bucket bag!
by: J. S.
I usually only get zippered crossbody bags, but I absolutely fell in love with this bag in the store and couldn’t put it down! The handle is Amazing, and the color is perfect!!
Beloved Belle
by: Abigail G.
My large Evergreen Belle is the best. I love the short handle for grabbing on the go and the the long strap for crossbody comfort
Pink a boo love 💕
by: Sandra E.
I lovvvve my large Belle in Pink a boo! It’s so beautiful and holds a lot! I’m using it for my Bible study books and Bible - it’s easy to carry and a perfect size!
My favorite new bag in my favorite color
by: Lori A.
I picked up this sweetheart in Seattle. She's squishy, the perfect size, has the best hardware, and makes the perfect Easter 'basket'. Shadow lime works so well with my spring wardrobe. This one's a winner!
Coldbrew
by: Dinah H.
I bought the small in coldbrew. It is soft and puddle. Fits my womens bifold wallet perfectly with plenty of more space. This is such a beautiful bag.
The small Belle Bucket Bag in sunshine is everything I didn’t know I needed!
by: Customer
The small Belle Bucket Bag in sunshine is everything I didn’t know I needed! The color is so perfect for spring and summer, it’s bright and happy. As a crossbody girl, the handle is a total game-changer! It’s the perfect size for what I carry: phone, keys, small wallet, kindle, sunglasses, sometimes a snack for my daughter. I added the heart pouch in orchid and I love the two together. Couldn’t be happier with my purchase.
Customer Reviews
So cute and chili red is a fun color
In venom this bag is magic. Somehow firm, slouchy, shiny, and pebbled all at the same time
I was so lucky to find this beautiful unicorn the day after unicorn Saturday. A staff member was so helpful and pulled it out of a closet when I admired another bag, the same color. I haven’t used it yet, but plan to build my fall wardrobe around it!
Beautiful bag and amazingly soft leather. It's not lined so it leans more towards being slouchy vs. structured. Also, I’m 5'6" and found the strap a bit too long for a crossbody—I ended up having to punch another hole in it to make it work. I also added the medium canvas organizer insert because I kept losing my keys in the bag. It's a pretty bag and I love the nutmeg color!
Love this color and the style of the Belle. The one I received had a small cut in the bag, but PLG is exchanging it. Very pleased.
