Every now and then something will catch my eye and go straight onto my #GWishlist. I told myself that I have worked really hard this year and decided to treat myself to a new handbag (being a shoe addict and really finding no excuse to buy another pair of Louboutins) I convinced myself that a handbag was a necessity and so much more practical (!). That was until I saw the “Jewelled Lily” Mulberry clutch bag. It is stunning. Not very practical. But stunning! The clutch was introduced in Mulberry’s SS/2011 collection for a limited time only. But I think it would work perfectly in the festive season with a little black dress!
The clutch is handcrafted with 2596 individual swarovski crystals. Each Lily is completely exclusive. Because of the handwork on it, no two bags are ever the same. Hello. Love it even more! It has a heavily embellished front panel encrusted with rivets; 460 rivets per bag, with four different sizes of Swarovski crystals. It also comes with the signature Postman's lock closure. It is available in camel suede.
But before you get carried away and head down to Mulberry, it retails at an eye-watering £3,575. It remains on my wish list and I have fully accepted that, that is exactly where it will remain.
