Chit Chat Chunter # 7: On the most stylish response to the 5p bag tax

Hi All,

Just a very quick chirp from me today to share with you my ultimate response to The 5p Issue.

As I was dashing around The Asda (as my chum would say…) I was overcome by panic: no small fold-able bag had I about my person. What to do?

But then..of course…

IMG_3916I have been carting around the Largest-Handbag-Known-To-Man, to much general disdain, for the past 3 years and today, as I knew it would, came its glory day.

Not sure that Louis V had in mind that his bag would be receptacle to a dozen Muller Light Yoghurts and some Bernard Matthews chicken, but needs must, needs must.

Problem. Sorted. 

Catch you later my Chit Chat Chums!

Chit Chat Cherish #1: A new bag 

Hello! 

I just had to quickly share my new bag with you : I ❤️ it! 

I usually invest a bit in bags (on the basis of the ‘price per wear’ ratio) but this one is an absolute steal from one of my high street favourites: Matalan (or ‘Matt Alan’ as my Dad calls it.)

It’s kind of sporty chic and was probably designed as a gym bag, but since the gym and I aren’t on good terms these days, I’ll be rocking it as an everyday casual. 

Plus, I am OBSESSED with neon. Some might say neon had its day around 18 months ago, but I think a black outfit with a neon bag or shoe is a timeless look.

So, here it is… What do you think?

  
I’ll try to get a few shots of me wearing it in the next few days and post them up, but in the meantime I suggest you all dash to Matalan (it doesn’t seem to be online) and grab a timeless bargain – at £14 you can’t go wrong, right?
