“I’d love to write about your bags” I wrote to Oushka after they started to follow me on twitter. Luckily they didn’t think that it was such a bad idea and, having fallen in love with the metallic totes, I chose to write about the Clover handbag in silver (£155). It also comes in Rose Gold and Gold as well as Ginger and all are equally beautiful.
I don’t know about anyone else but I’m a huge fan of a metallic bag, especially in the summer months and this one will go with everything from my favourite navy pieces through to pastels, neons and whites.
The bag is soft, unstructured, roomy and smells lovely – just like a leather bag should. No doubt that it will be perfect for those who carry a sleek ipad, a phone, a make-up bag of Chanel make up and some beautifully organised files – but it will work just as well for those of us who are more likely to be carrying a spare of flat shoes, a Boots lip gloss and some bashed up oat cakes.
It also comes with a detachable clutch bag, which could be used as an evening bag – or as a handy place to store keys/phone etc to stop them from dropping to the bottom of this beautifully tardis like bag.
See what I mean about its size? It can also be used to disguise your entire legs. I can imagine walking around the supermarket making strategic dance type moves with it to shield my legs from the unsuspecting public!
You can follow Oushka on twitter and facebook. For anyone on the look out for a gorgeous bag their Dover bag is definitely worth taking a look at.
Lovely bag but I like your top! Is it this season?
I have a huge silver metallic tote that came free with some Clinique makeup brushes years ago that my husband gave me for Christmas. I've never used it as it's enormous but I've seen a few large metallic totes around lately and think I might dig it out. Always nice to dip into a trend without needing to spend any money!
With a two year old I love a Tote bag, I can sling everything in and don't have to haul a nappy bag around with me anymore! Like you I like metallics, they match so many colours x
Looks GORGEOUS! How totally useful! xx
Love top and shoes…..where from please? Hx
