Postcard it up!

So, I've been looking around for a new clutch bag and I've really been struggling, mainly because I didn't just want any old clutch bag - I wanted a clutch with an envelope/postcard style to it.

After narrowing down my searching I can up with this glorious Lulu Guinness number:


It's so pretty and I really do love the postcard/envelope styling of this clutch... however, because it's Lulu Guinness it has a bit of a price tag attached... £225 - Eep!


This is the second option... Yves Saint Laurent have also gone along the postcard/envelope theme with this lovely patent clutch... obviously this is also a bit on the pricey side at £270.

Right... well... two delight clutches, both over £200 worth of monies... hmmm... is there a cheaper option I wonder?

THERE IS! Introducing Paper Planes beautiful bags of JOY...


Hazah! This is a Paper Planes purse and is really cute! It's also a bit of a bargain at £10.99. I love the gorgeous detailing on this bag, the little heart stamp and the air mail sticker are fab.


This is another number from Paper Planes, it's a lovely bag and costs £16.99! The little bow on this bag is delightful and I love the 'Buy Buy Baby' text.

And last but not least...


This beautiful overnight bag is also from Paper Planes and is a real bargain at £41.99! I think the map design on this bag is great and I really like the little envelope pocket on the front - it's all in the detailing my friends! :)

So there we go, fab designer bags for when you're feeling a bit flush... but bargain beauts for when you're tightening the purse strings a bit!

  5. What a cute post ! I have seen a make up clutch from Cargo with a postcard layout a few weeks ago at Sephora. The idea of a clutch like that is pretty ! Thanks for sharing ! xoxox
