I love Wimbledon. I love how it always makes me feel ultra summery and I love watching Kim Sears look absolutely flawless at every single one of Andy Murray's matches. I loved Kim's Mulberry Willow that she toted throughout last years tournament, so much that I have had several thoughts about buying this years version in beautiful Ballet Pink (here). Unfortunately I have to save a little longer for that, but in the meanwhile I came across this beauty!
My best friend and I were chatting on the phone last week about lack of affordable handbags that we actually like (we both have expensive taste) and she mentioned Accessorize. It is a shop I almost never frequent and often forget. Looking online while on the phone however we both saw this and when I mentioned that I had seen something I liked, Yannah knew this was the bag I was talking about.
A great summer nude blush pink colour and it looks far more stylish than its £32 price tag suggests. No it's not leather, but it does have a detachable long strap, it also has metal feet, is a decent size and no you won cry at the thought of putting it down on a bench in a beer garden.
Yes it borrows heavily from design elements of other designers, but all in all I am very pleased with my little find. I'm not expecting it to last more than the season however if I'm honest the worry I have with the Willow is that i'm not sure it won't be dated in another season anyway...and hey, I saved myself £1,578 and that's a result in my book!
The Melissa Winged Handbag: Available from Accessorize (here) who also accept student discount, taking this beauty down to £28.20
