Downtown Cool with Alexa


The much anticipated Mulberry Alexa bag, named after UK presenter-turned-style-icon Alexa Chung, debuted at the brand's boutique in the Avenues Phase II.  And of course the Oak and tan leather versions are already sold out.

I normally avoid "designed-by-celebs" accessories as they tend to lack the quality and creativity I look for in a bag, but this one actually appealed to me. Its preppy, worn-in, vintagey, and slouchy style makes it a great every-dayer.  And the price tag is reasonable for a designer bag.  The bag can be worn across the body or carried by the handle. And I liked the fact that the buckle straps are attached by fuss-free magnetic press-stud fastening, which make it easy to access the stuff inside your bag.

What's available now at Mulberry Boutique are the Alexa bag in peony pink shiny leopard print leather (featured here) and in oak shiny leopard print leather.  But I still prefer the plain leather, It looks more refined.

I agree with you, I prefer the more neutral colors on a Mulberry bag. I like the idea of something bright for the summer time to brighten up your outfits but just the structure of the Mulberry bag doesn't lend itself to too much funkiness a7is it clashes fa sayer shakilha cheap shway.
