Is cheap crap for 60+ age bracket.


Really? My tween girl loves their handbags and beach stuff with the prints of different places. I didn’t know they made clothes. This brand came out of the blue to us.

I’d love more insight on it if you like. Had no idea it was targeted to to older set. Lol.


What insight do you need? It is an old Betty brand. Great social marketing done by two woman on Daufuskie Island SC that blew up into a national brand. It is actually Spartina 449, Spartina for the coastal grass, 449 cottage address on Daufuskie. It is kind of the southern equivalent of Coach, soccer moms who want to carry a brand on their shoulder and not drop change on European fashion house bag and older woman who want to feel young and carry “cute” yet tacky stuff.


I can’t believe I’m about to say this. I am a fashion hound and actually thought the stuff was kind of cute. Then again, I love Daufuskie Island. It’s my favorite place on earth.

Ok. Thanks. I still think it’s cute stuff. I got my girl a nice tote she uses for sleepovers. Love their stuff. I’ve never seen an old woman use it.


It’s fine for little girl, it’s trendy. If I was spending that much on a tote I would get something that she could transition into teen years with, like Tumi or Mandarina Duck.
