Preview AW17: Small Leather Goods
I don't know if for you it is the same but when the season changes I have to celebrate it by buying something cute like a small leather accessory, a key ring or a small purse or a belt, something that is not eye watering expensive but it marks the beginning of a new cycle. I've found some ideas.
*Not Yet* This beautiful embossed wallet is by Coach and it is going to be sold in House of Fraser. This brand is not yet in store at the moment so it is going to be a novelty and I am looking forward to see the new space dedicated to this American label. Check online or in store to monitor its arrival. www.houseoffraser.co.uk
*In Store* Purple could not be left out from a post about small leather goods. It is my favourite colour and it is very much on trend for this coming season. This Slim Clutch wallet is in Oak Grain Leather by David Hampton has got 10 slots for credit cards, pockets for notes and receipts and a coin section. I find it gorgeous. www.uk.davidhampton.com
*In Store* A wide suede belt is a staple in any wardrobe and it is timeless. This beautiful Alisha Blue suede belt is by Hobbs and as well as in this colour you can choose between Neutral and Olive Green. It will complement an outfit, just style it over a dress or tunic, even an oversized shirt or jumper for different look. www.hobbs.co.uk
*In Store* Affordable luxury for this Biba keyring at House of Fraser. maybe you've moved to a new house? Or you've bought a new car ? Or you've started university and you've found a new accommodation ? These are just some of the few reason why you can treat yourself to a new keyring. This one is in a nice silver colour but it is available in red as well. www.houseoffraser.co.uk
*In Store* This zip purse in leather is perfect to keep cards and coins with minimal space. It is the Wyton purse by Joules in a classic shape and available in chestnut or black colour. Remember that if you give a purse or wallet as a gift, put a coin inside for good luck. www.joules.com
*Not Yet* These fluffy gorgeous La Baronne keyrings are from Longchamp in classic black or fashionable purple. I've seen them at the press presentation and I've loved them. You can use them either as a key ring as its use was intended or use them as a bag charm. If you sign up to Longchamp website they will email you as soon as they become available. www.uk.longchamp.com
*In Store* * Not Yet* Again the weird tag but in this picture the wallet is already available while the belt is not. The printed purse is by Marc Cain in the very popular leopard print and calfskin. Inside compartments for cards, notes and coins will keep all your valuables in one place. The belt made of the same material will be available hopefully soon. Deliveries occurred very often so check the website for updates. www.marc-cain.com
*In Store* You might have started a new job or maybe you've graduated and now you need your business cards stored nicely. Or You just want to keep your credit cards in a specific holder so that are not confused with loyalty cards and gift cards. Well these two Amur card holder by Smith & Canova are perfect for this purpose, visible inside a bag for easy reach. I've found them in the men's department but in my opinion they are unisex. www.smithandcanova.co.uk
*In Store* It is time to upgrade your phone, or maybe it is still very well far away from your next upgrade and your phone is a bit battered? I've seen these gorgeous mobile cases in leather by Snakehive and I'm telling you, the selection is huge. These two are from the Pastel collection but you can have any colour, any material, they are making even wooden mobile cases and they cater for so many brands that you will find yours. The company is based in lovely Dorking in Surrey and they produce covers for all your small gadgets. www.snakehive.co.uk
