Mahala Collection
Step into the timeless legacy of Mahala, a resilient soul born around 1740 in the rolling hills of Surry, North Carolina, whose strength and devotion shaped a family of eight across her life with Sherril Chappel until around 1810. At Sweet Bella Bags, her enduring spirit inspires the Mahala Collection—a stunning array of handcrafted leather crossbody bags, lovingly crafted in Texas. Each piece blends Mahala’s pioneering courage with the rich textures of premium leather, offering versatility and style for the modern adventurer.
Mahala Leather Convertible Crossbody/Backpack

Designed for the free-spirited, this beauty transitions seamlessly from a crossbody to an over-the-shoulder carry or a chic backpack with a simple guitar strap adjustment. Its roomy interior boasts a spacious compartment, inside and outside pockets, and four leather card slots to keep your essentials organized and your hands free. Crafted with premium leather and accented with antique gold hardware, it’s available in conceal carry or non-conceal carry options—the conceal carry version features a secure Velcro-lined holster for quick, ambidextrous access. Personalize your journey with a vibrant guitar-style or classic leather strap, making this a perfect tribute to Mahala’s legacy of adaptability and grace.
