Kim Kardashian Buys Baby Balenciaga
Now
we thought we were bag barmy! It seems that nothing is outrageous when it comes
to buying bags. After Kim Kardashian instagrammed this teensy little yellow handbag
that she bought as a gift for her seven-month-old niece. The mini Balenciaga reportedly
cost around $345. Now we just can’t decide whether this is Creepy or Cute?

The Trusty : That good old bag that goes with
everything, small enough for the day, big enough for overnight; you never know
where you might end up. Check out The Ropsley… www.burghleybags.com
The Trendy: This one doesn’t need much explaining.Check out The Somerby… www.burghleybags.com

One Bag
for all Shapes & Sizes
Why The
Ropsely bag from B U R G H L E Y bags is ideal for curvier women… voluptuous
ladies should always avoid, round bags. Bags that are boxy are much more
flattering. Also avoid prints. Small prints will make you look bigger than you
are, while large prints will draw too much attention to your size.
Why The
Ropsely bag (or The Somerby) from B U R G H L E Y bags is ideal for top heavy women. Top heavy women should choose a handbag with a longer handle avoiding those that
finish around the bustline or mid-section. Therefore a hip-length crossbody bag
( The Ropsley comes with a cross body optional strap) or satchel is ideal.
Why The
Ropsely bag from B U R G H L E Y bags is ideal for Pear-shaped women. Women that carry their weight in their hips and
thighs should look for bags that hang to the upper torso in order draw the eyes
away from problem areas.
Why The
Ropsely bag from B U R G H L E Y bags is ideal for Little
ladies. Smaller women should avoid vertically elongated bags at all costs as
they can make short women look even shorter. Instead, find a bag that is
horizontally longer this will create the appearance of a longer torso

Calling all Bag Ladies ;)
So whilst we
are waiting for our bags to arrive we have come up with a list of things perfectly
suited for The Somerby & the best bit is that everything will fit because this
beautiful bag has been designed for all of life’s little essentials!
1. Nail Inc Haymarket Nail
Polish… it could be because it’s a great
nail polish or it could be that it reminds us of our favourite little box (Tiffany
& Co) either way it’s a must have for the bag.2. Stila Tinted moisturizer…let’s not just save the tan for the bag. This tinted
moisturizer is a great way to get a little colour. 3. Burt’s Bee’s Lip
salve…we can’t resist 4. Benefit Coralista…this one is easy…if you put it in a cute box we
want it.5. Ted Baker Ipad Case… We have this and what we love about it is that it
fits in our bags perfectly. 6. L'occitane Shea Butter Hand
Cream…a must have this cold spring. The best bit about this is it can fit
nicely in the side pockets meaning its always …handy ;) 7. Plasters... Fashion Designer Cynthia Rowley has worked with Johnson
& Johnson’s brand Band Aids to create these adorable plasters. I’ve never
craved a paper cut so much!! & the best bit abot these plasters is that for
every purchase a percentage of the proceeds go to one of Cynthia's charities. 8. Life of Pie. Great book, great
film, adventure, India, a Bengal tiger what more could you want. This is a definite
must for your handbag.9. Rescue Remedy…whether it’s from
your boss or that assignment that you were meant to start 3 weeks ago rescue
remedy is a must have because a girl never knows when she might need rescuing. 10.Percy and Reed
No-Fuss Fabulousness Dry Shampoo…speaking of needing
rescuing this is a must have…perfect for the mornings you sleep through your
alarm and only have 20 minutes to get out of the house…& as if it was made
for us it slips nicely in one of our side pockets.11.
Benefit Bad Gal Lashes…does what it says on the tin 12. Purse from Alphabet Bag...okay
okay so we like it because it has a B for B U R G H L E Y. 13. Iconemesis Phone Cover… we love
love love these. These phone covers are from Iconemesis. A company that aims
to combine the work of young artists with…well iphone cases.
We love…India
All of
our distinctive bags are sustainably sourced from Rajasthan in India. Rajasthan
‘The land of kings’ has been the home of leather craftsmen for hundreds of
years and our aim is to blend this Indian craftsmanship with our traditional
British standards.
We are
head over heels for India especially Rajasthan with its bustling streets, ancient temples,
tasty street food and most importantly lots of great quality leather…
So here are some snaps from our last visit to
India …
