Mulberry VS ASOS

Mulberry VS ASOS really there's no competition for me it's Mulberry all the way and I firmly believe that "Every girl needs a Mulberry in their life" but due to lack of funds and the high price tag that their bags carry I've pretty much become an expert in finding similar bags without the hefty price tag.

I've managed to do it yet again with the Mint Willow Tote that you can also unzip the front pouch so that it can become a clutch - 2 for the price 1 - however the price tag isn't such a bargain at £1500 which as a student I just can't afford. But I found a solution - a Johnny Loves Rosie bag from ASOS in the 70% off sale and with an extra 10% off all sale items it's even more of a bargain!

So it's not quite a Mulberry but with my budget at the moment even the Johnny Loves Rosie bag would be a strain on my finances but one day I WILL have the money to buy myself a collection of Mulberry's and I will feel like I'm the Queen! Although it does upset me that the Queen doesn't carry around a Mulberry Bayswater on a daily basis - I think she'd definitely give it even more fashion points!

Grown Up Bag Hunt

I am definitely a bag girl there's always a saying you are either a bag girl or a shoes girl and for me it's all about the bag. I have a varied selection from cheap Primark bags to more pricer bags and so many different styles from a clutch bag I can just about fit my phone into to a massive tote that I can practically fit my life in but one bag I'm missing in my collection is a nice simple black or dark coloured bag that's smart enough to use any time of the day and for any occasion. 

So I've been looking around and discovered some great Marc B bags that are good sizes and are 'grown up' bags that I could use for potential job interviews when I leave uni (I go into my third and final year in September) and they are also quite inexpensive. Although that seem ages away I still need to think about revamping my wardrobe and to save the huge amount of cost at that time if I start now then I can spread the cost and the first thing I'm looking at is a new handbag. Below are the top 5 Marc B potential bags.

Top Row: Tammy Olive Suede £49.00. Knightsbridge Black £49.00.
Middle Row : Giselle Black £59.00
Bottom Row: Bella Black Snake £49.00. Lottie Black Ostrich Black £55.00

So now I just need to decide if one of these lovely bags is going to be mine  or if I need to carry on searching for my 'Grown Up' bag!
