Handbag of the Month
I have no shame in admitting how much I love handbags. Giving up work and having two children has put a serious dent in my handbag budget, but it doesn’t mean I don’t lust after them… Repeatedly. Handbag of the month is where I pick a bag that has caught my eye for this month, even if I can’t afford to buy it! 😉 Some might old, new, cheap, mega expensive… This is simply all about bags I love.
Pick of the Month – November 2015
Mulberry – Antony Satchel Bag
This is a bit of a Christmas wish list post, if money were no object. A bag I would simply love to add to my collection would be a Mulberry. There is no way on earth I can justify the cost of one, when you have children there is a lot you can buy with the cost of a Mulberry bag! But, wow they are so gorgeous. I can day dream… right? I love cross body bags as I think they are really practical with children and leave you hands free. Although I think I may have to add a little charm or something. I love the classic oak colour, but think I would go for the ox blood as it’s a bit different – how about you what would be your money is no object handbag?
*Disclaimer – I receive no financial compensation for this feature, it is simply about bags I find and love.
I absolutely love Mulberry but I’ve never owned one and I doubt I ever will, like you I couldn’t justify that amount on a bag when we have a mortgage to pay and children to feed. But we can still drool over them! I prefer the brown, I’m a fan of brown leather it just goes with everything. I like satchel bag because they’re easier than the slippy slidey shoulder bags, but I do miss a good shoulder bag, a really fancy one that hasn’t been drawn on with crayons x
No I doubt I will ever own one either. They are so gorgeous and I am with you, love a leather bag. And yes shoulder bags often are slippy and slidy aren’t they which are no good with children.
Mulberry… The bag of dreams! And the only place I’m likely to own one! I love the oxblood one but, and this is not likely, I think a once in a lifetime purchase like that I’d have to go tan. It’d age so beautifully. I really love the tote bags…one day Laura, one day 😉 x
The bag of dreams indeed – but we can dream can’t we?! As you say, one day…
This is gorgeous Laura! I really do love the look/colour of both bags and it’s such a handy style too! I like over the shoulder types.

It’s such a beautiful, classic bag isn’t it?
Oh I do love the colour of that top bag! It’s gorgeous. I may have to add this to my Christmas Wish List. Think I might be wishing for a long time though. 😉
The Ox blood one is stunning isn’t it? Just a little bit different… I think a Christmas wish list has to have a little wish in it 😉
Hope the handbag fairy is reading this and sprinkles a bit of Mulberry magic your way! They are eye wateringly expensive though.
Ha ha me too and they are very eye wateringly expensive you’re right.
I love a Mulberry bag, but like you say, I cannot justify the cost when I have three children to provide for. Maybe once they have grown up I will be able to treat myself to one..but I imagine I will just end up lusting over them for the rest of my life. xx
I know they are expensive little monkeys aren’t they? Well worth it though… shame about the handbags….
How much?!!! Wow! I like them but I think they are blooming expensive! I prefer the brown over the red but I understand why you prefer the red 🙂

Ha ha they are crazy expensive. I like things that are just a little different which is why I love the red.
Well who doesn’t like a Mulberry bag? They are gorgeous!! I would love to have one!! I would probably go for the red one as you to be a little bit different. 🙂 xx
I know I think most women would love one and I agree the red is just a little different 🙂
I do love Mulberry bags and I really like the ones you’ve picked out. My dream handbag is a vintage Chanel chain bag.
