Reveal of the Handbag Variety

(Sorry if I sound snob like at any point in this blog post)

I have been thinking about this factor for a while, when I go to London there is nothing I hate more than carrying your life with you everywhere, but due to my short trips it is a necessity as I never really have a base for more than a night, therefore I end up using a suitcase, not a large one a small one, but it absolutely pisses me off (sorry for my language but it does) and it makes me feel more nervous about traveling alone as I look more like a tourist and its is awkward carrying it up and down stairs on the tubes etc. so for a while now I have been wanting a nice bag, that looks presentable, light weight, but not a cheap bag (as I am not a cheap person) so I caved and ordered one on Monday, and here is my reveal.

It is from Selfridges & Co, I have always wanted to order something from Selfridges, designer bags (even though I only had 2, I sold my Louis Vuitton, so now only have the Mulberry) I always buy from the shops in person as I love to play! But this bag I have seen so many times, its kind of a bog standard bag that people own due to its "cheapness" (not that it looks cheap, just you don't need to worry like you do about your Mulberry) and its lightness, everything about it screams I AM PERFECT FOR IMY'S LONDON TRIPS!

I love the wrapping and the Fab sticker, it makes me feel like someone really loved my bag! (Even though it is brand new) I am so excited to share the rest with you!

I have had a few lengthy discussions about this bag, two people I remember having them with are Paperlovestory and Caribbean Princess, both wonderful ladies!

Here she is in all her glory, I will be doing lots more posts on her!!

  1. Fab!

    I have quite a few of these Longchamp bags in various sizes and colours. I love them! They pack up small and unfold to a decent size. The straps (even on the small size) are long enough to go over the shoulder - always a consideration when strap hanging on the tube!

  2. Very nice! I love the way Selfridges pack their stuff too. Got a necklace from them a few weeks back and it came in a package the size that your bag came in!!

  3. Love this Longchamp bags! They're so comfy and everything seems to fit in them!! I have yet to buy the real deal since with my previous student budget I could only afford the knock-off (terrible thing! but oh well) which I actually destroyed buuuut now I´m thinking of getting a proper one :)
