At last it looks as if I am going to the States. I cannot wait to shop in Manhattan and take the tour of Carrie’s favourite places. While in New York I will not be driving – the girls bever did, as it is not necessary in Manhattan. In the rest of the country the stuation is different. We intend to hire a Chevrolet Silverado for a road trip across the country. I hope everything goes well, the last thing I want is to have a breakdown in unfamiliar territory. Insurance is essential of course, as that means we will be able to get a brake job should it become necessary. We may end up in Texas so we will need to know where to go for Dallas auto repair, although I would rather spend my holiday shopping for handbags. But at least we will know that the broing bits have been covered.
Finally this afternoon there was a feeling that Spring is approaching, after such a long wait. And how quickly our priorities change – only a few days ago I would not leave the house without a pair of thick goretex gloves, but today I have a new accessory emergency. I have only one pair of sunglasses left from last season, and they are not quite the height of fashion. I really want some aviator sunglasses, like the ones worn by Steve McQueen. So the hunt for trendy shades starts here, and I am not alone in this passion. Most of us have come to realise that eyewear is an important part of our overall look, and the right pair of sunglasses can make the difference between being on trend or a candidate for the ‘what not to wear’ shows. I do not want Gok Wan to have to makeover my look, so i am searching for up to date sunglasses that will make me seem cool and mysterious – well, I can try, anyway. In fact I may get a few consignments of wholesale men sunglasses and sell some on to all my lovely readers here. Keep reading and I will see what I can find. At least if I buy a dozen pairs that should cover all the sunglasses that I lose through the year.
In a clear case of less is more, this bright Mulberry Ava clutch earns major points for being such a looker. Not only is it one of those oversized styles that looks just as appropriate dressed down or with a glamorous cocktail dress, it’s vibrant in a statement-making shade of fuchsia. A strong colour like this pink requires a neutral backdrop, so it will sit very well with a plain Little Black Dress or jeans and a T shirt with pumps or stilletoes. When you step out in a combo like that, the bag will do the talking. Available from My-Wardrobe, with free shipping and a seven day returns policy.
The Bayswater East West looks great in chocolate print leather
I have a longing to own a genuine Mulberry Bayswater Bag, preferably in crushed rouge noir patent leather. However, when I go to the shop to touch and feel that coveted Mulberry designer handbag there is one thing that has stopped me from buying the bag. The obstacle to my purchase is the size of the thing. I just find it too unwieldy, and I might have bought it before realising if the assistant had not suggested that I look at it in the mirror. On me the standard Mulberry Bayswater Bag looks seriously oversized. But, as I was in one of Mulberry’s own stores at the time there was plenty of other stock to look at. It was then that I spotted the often overlooked Mulberry Bayswater East West Tote, perfectly sized for any woman under 5 feet 4 (like me). This little cutie measures 17.5cm high and 33 cm wide – a few years ago that would have been classified as a large handbag, but not any more. Another dislike of mine is the matt leather that Mulberry use for a lot of versions of this iconic bag. But this Mulberry Bayswater East West in Chocolate Brown print will be a lot easier to maintain than the matt finish. It is available now at John Lewis at £550, but act fast because a lot of colours have already sold out. Free delivery in the UK and a money back guarantee means you can buy with confidence.
This Kipling travel wallet will make the best gift for anyone who travels. It is very light, helping you to make the most of limited luggage allowances.You can buy it now at the special price of just £17.95 including UK postage and packing.

Chanel’s famous 2.55 Quilted handbag with its trademark gold chain and clasps is one of the most popular designer handbags from the house of Chanel – ever.
With a price tag of £1500 it is beyond the reach of many, but Peacocks have now produced a close replica, priced much lower than the Chanel original.
But the cute quilted black shoulder bags acted as magnets for fashionistas across the UK and the bag was a sell-out: Peacocks sold more than 20,000 in just eight weeks.
Black Quilted Peacocks Chain Handbag
This handbag from Peacocks was featured in the Daily Mail as a “luxury lookalike” for fashionistas who crave that Designer style without the high price tag. Quilted in heart shapes, with a gold catch and double gold chain with black threaded through it. The chain is approx 64cm long (when double). The bag measures approx 27cm x 17cm with a striped cotton lining and inner zipped pocket. Inspired by the £1500 Designer version carried by celebrities such like Kate Moss, Victoria Beckham and Renee Zellweger, thanks to this clever design you can get the It bag look for much much less (pictured above).
There is a great range of Chanel-inspired bags on sale at Peacocks, at tiny prices. You can indulge your passion for the designer look at the Peacocks online shop.
The authentic Chanel bag on which this is modelled, is named the 2.55, as it was created in February 1955. This long standing Accessory is still a huge fashion ‘must have’ today. Read more »
