A classic French bag..

22/11/2015

0 Comments

 
When you think of a French woman and her Accessories, for me its sunglasses, a straw hat and a handbag. The most iconic French handbag would have to be a Chanel bag, the vintage black leather quilted bag with the eponymous logo. But at US$5,199.00 there not really in everyone's range!

Instead why not look for a good leather bag that will stand the test of time. For me, if I was to splurge on a good bag it would be a Country Road bag as their bags are such great quality leather and they have classic styles as well as updated designs.
All Country Road - Carlotta saddle bag $229.00, Gerri shouler bag $279.00, Sienna fringe hobo $349.00.

Alternatively opt for a more conservative price Tote bag, but with a pop of colour, a muted tone or a tassle!
Merchant Kylie handbag $139.90, Seed Heritage Francesca Tassel Tote AU$89.95, Witchery Gigi tote $139.90.

Mighty Purse - charge your phone on the go!

How often have you been caught out with a low or flat battery on your mobile phone? Or stayed overnight somewhere, unpacked your bag and realised you've left your charger at home, agh!! Well now, as long as you don't forget your purse, you'll always have a phone charger with you.

Mighty Purse is a purse that charges your phone. Its not only very useful, its also pretty stylie. As the product descriptions states; "Its a fusion between fashion and technology, the Mighty Purse is an essential handbag accessory for the modern day woman. Its comes in real leather with a soft suede lining, and loads of gorgeous colours to choose from."

But how does it work? 
It features a hidden lightweight built-in battery that can re-charge most smartphones, ensuring you'll never be left powerless again.  The bag uses a usb to charge (so you can plug it into your computer or a usb charger). There are 5 blue lights inside that light up when it is being charged or charging your gadget so you know how much is left to go. It also comes with a set of iphone adapters.

I've looked around and so far found Redcurrant stock them in their stores, but they're available online at Redcurrant, Ruby and Hedgerow. They all seem to be advertised at around the same price of $164.00-$169.00. ​An addition to your Santa List perhaps?
