It’s no secret that I’m handbag obsessed. From clutches and cross body handbags through to totes and carry alls, I’ve quite literally, got it all and am still forever collecting. So the opportunity to style the new Kurt Geiger spring collection was music to my ears. They’ve recently launched their new spring handbags and well, I’ve got a lot of love for them.
I chose to style the Violet Horizontal Tote from the mix. The leather is buttery soft, and the colour is one of my favourites. Strangely, I’ve never owned a khaki bag before. However, I can say that I have one too many army style shirts hanging in my wardrobe. The other handbags in the collection are equally fierce, the Kensington is a solid choice for a statement piece and the Saffiano Crossbody is perfect for daytime adventures along Portobello Road through to evenings that turn into all nighters.
After all, I’m 100% for taking daytime looks through into the evening. How many times do we find we’re on a spontaneous night out from our afternoon?
All. The. Time.
I can’t even count how many times my weekends go from morning to night out of the flat. I end up spending my time going from brunch with pals and exploring a new area of London to drinking glasses of Pinot at the pub into the early hours.
So on the weekends I try to pick a style that will take me from day to night easily. Especially as we head into the spring. I’m ready to start sporting light dresses with even lighter jackets. Time to retire my faithful giant wrap coat for the season, I think!
With the weather so mild this weekend, I dusted off my trusty leather jacket and tossed on a day dress. What I like about this Kurt Geiger bag is that I can chuck everything I need it in for the daytime (camera, makeup, water bottle, random essentials) without it being too heavy and I can easily swing it over my shoulder at the pub or in a cocktail bar.
And it’s incredibly soft. I’ve already had two friends who felt it and made those sounds like ‘ooooh’. Yeah, I love it.
I’m always down for wearing a cross body bag or carrying a clutch, but it’s these guys that always are the winner for me. I just have too much that I need on me at all times, which is pretty relatable because tbh I always need at least 12 lipstick options, 2 hand lotions, 3 concealers, combs and mostly some snacks just in case.
What handbag do you find yourself drawn to this spring?
