Best Way to Spend £15

August 24, 2011 § Leave a comment

Just recently I broke my rule about always having expensive shoes – now it is time to break the same rule regarding bags. (What is the point of rules if not to break them?)

Chances are you have already heard about boohoo.com. There are billboards and magazine spreads of Belted Skater Dress by Boohoo everywhere you look. Yet what caught my eye on the website was a selection of very cool animal skin bags in amazing autumn colours for unbelievable £15. I want them all!

Here I selected my favourite small cross body bags: Anise Dimple Chain Strap Box Bag in Orange, Emma Cross Body Bag in Gold (day-to-night which is always a plus) and Misha Box Bag in Teal (40’s inspired so satisfies another fashion trend). Good luck picking your favourite!

Can I have an Oscar?

This is my kind of Oscar. A wonderful travel wallet/clutch from http://www.mimiberry.co.uk, London based Central Saint Martins graduate called (surprise surprise) Mimi Berry. It comes in red, tan, black, brown and gold each with tan coloured fastener. I am definitely purchasing it in preparation for my holiday since its double duty – will keep all my documents organised in the airport and act as a cool clutch when I reach my destination! I am all about minimalistic packing! (Well, I say I am and I always end up paying for overweight bags or extra suitcases. I am dreading the day I pack for 2 weeks away…)

My love for Mulberry Peace & Love

August 8, 2011 § 2 Comments

Bayswater. This classic IT bag was what always came to my mind when I heard ‘Mulberry’ (before the creation of Alexa of course). This season the bag was reinvented. It suddenly became very cool with the addition of Peace & Love charms.  I can just see the bag migrating from the arms of business ladies to fashionistas, not that one person can’t be both of course. The only obstacle to successful migration – £3500 price tag. But if anything is worth investing into, its Mulberry beauties!

It feels like Mulberry can do no wrong now – the brand witnessed phenomenal growth despite the recession all based on a series of stunning bags. I own two Mulberry creations myself, and they are my personal favourites! One of them is an Oversized Tillie in Snake Print, star of last season that featured in the print campaign. This is why I am also very excited about new materials Tillie is made of this season. To see the full range go to  http://www.mulberry.com/#/storefront/
