This Week I am Carrying: Saddle Bag

MY DAILY LOOK

The winter months can often restrict our daily look – especially when we are forced to wrap up in the same dark and heavy layers for weeks on end. I always find then that one of the best ways to bring a little variety to my daily look is to refresh things a little by opting for a different handbag each day and today my choice was the Saddle Bag.

SADDLE BAG

One clever option is the trusty Saddle Bag – which comes in a variety of colours – and that you can pair off according to your choice of outfit. For example a darker shade will bring out the best in a lighter coloured outfit, and so on.

DAYTIME BAG

I have gone for the Letterbox Saddle Bag, which is from the Aspinal Letterbox Lock Family, and is a more feminine take on the classic cross body variety. I find that it allows you all the functionality of a daytime bag, while retaining a sense of style and ladylike charm.

COORDINATE OUTFIT

And why not pair coordinates as another effortless way to modernise your wardrobe? You can play with the look by altering heel height and highlight your accessories with an extra dash of colour. This look is soooo me!
