Wish List / Bags

I have about a gazillion handbags. They pile up in every corner of my room, above the wardrobe, in a suitcase inside the wardrobe etc. I can never bring myself to throw them away or sell them. As a result, I've had most my bags for a lifetime. I was talking the other day about the evolution of style, I think mine can be monitored easily by looking at my handbags. I have vintage clutches from my "party" years, kawaii ones from the twee pop years, serious structured ones from the first serious job, totes from university & HUUUUGE ones that I have been collecting since I've had Mila, as I always end up carrying my house with me.

Well at the moment, I am looking for a nice slouchy brown bag. The kind of bag that you throw on the floor as you arrive in a cafe, the kind that you can wear on your shoulder or carry nonchalantly in your hand. In the softest leather, really big, with a pretty lining. In other words, I want Jerome Dreyfuss' Billy bag.



I would also consider a geeky satchel like this



What is on your bag most wanted list at the moment?

  1. I am extremely oversupplied with tan bags, I'm still looking for one which is black or maybe another dark colour like purple. Something which hits the right mark between slouchy and structured to be really versatile.

    Currently, I've got the only bag I've actually coveted in a while...

    The second being my favourite...the size is perfect for carrying around multiple food magazines to read in empty coffee shops! x

  5. Skye- I suppose as a mummy, you must be looking for the same kind of bag as me!

    Ashe - This bag is really pretty!
    The first bag is a total dreamboat but SO expensivo!

    Tigerandtale - I like the second one best, but it isn't leather, is it?
