Detail: Brilliant Primark bags


Primark's quality isn't always great, but you really can't fault their prices and often, they turn out real gems.  If you haven't seen their bags this season, run, don't walk, to the nearest Primark and have a gander.  Bold tones, colour blocking, really pretty stuff that looks like it belongs on the arm of a model on a yacht.  (Did anyone have trouble spelling yacht when they were young and go around like, "YATCH!  No, YATCH.  No, YATCH!!!")

There were some purses in bold yellows and royal blues and really cute, quirky prints in big bright swathes that I really enjoyed.  Enough of this staid black and brown leather for now!


I really wanted to share this one that I bought yesterday on a small shopping trip with Shriya.  I honestly don't need another bag, but it was £6!  And I thought, Shuli (not really, I don't call myself Shuli in my head), you're a fool if you spend that £6 on something else you don't like as much just because it's not a purse, am I right?

I thought I'd share it in detail first, but I also styled it with an outfit today (are there any style bloggers out there who feel incredibly pretentious when using the word "styled"?  I mean, we're just wearing random shit together in a way that makes us happy.  It's so fartsy.  From now on, I will say wore).  Ahem.  I wore it with an outfit today that I'll share shortly!  I hope you enjoy the pictures!

    Hello! Thank you for dropping by my blog and I apologise for being so late to reply, I usually am, just to warn you.
    I'd never have considered brown and pink to go well together but this bag has a great colour scheme!
