The time has come. It's Autumn. The new collections are in. It's time to make a new purchase. It's time for .... a new handbag! Probably one of the most exciting purchases you can make at the start of a season. Now, making a new handbag purchase can be tricky. You need to think about shape, style, size (always important), colour, and budget. Oh, and something which I often consider (especially when money is tight) is whether it would carry me through day to evening. So with all this criteria to consider it can actually be quite a job to find the right bag. However, this season I need look no further than the fabulous collection of patent styles from our long-standing favourite designer, Mimi. I am often reluctant to use the word 'fabulous', because in the world of fashion it gets banded around all too frequently, but I use it here with complete sincerity ... these bags
are fabulous. This hot pink colour is so smart and striking and is tipped to be a hot favourite (I've already heard 2 of our girls getting their hands on it). And the thing I love about patent leather is that it always looks smart
and always looks glamorous! No effort needed! So you could be wearing your dreariest of clothes, just popping out for a pint of milk (having one of those 'no-makeup-hope-I-don't-bump-into-anyone-I-know' moments), throw on your coat, pick up your gorgeous patent Mimi bag and there you go ... instant glamour, for day or night. Brilliant.
