Mulberry Satchel

I'm not British and so I don't have the appreciation for Mulberry like I should.  It's a very underrated brand in North America, in my opinion.  I think they make the most breathtaking handbags and yet most people have never heard of the brand.  As a funny aside, I had a reader of this blog chastise me for calling "Burberry" Mulberry.  I had to tell her that Mulberry was a separate brand altogether.  She still kinda doubted me!


The replica bags for Mulberry are equally awesome.  The leather is very, very good and the hardware is weighty and a good match to the original bags.  I was in London last summer and I remember seeing HORDES of people carrying Mulberry.  Mulberry in the UK is like Coach in North America!  Everyone has one.  EVERYONE. I can see why the UKers don't get all excited about it but it is a very classic brand with a sophistication that is suited for the boardroom. 
I'm just showcasing the electric blue here, perfect for summer, but all these bags come in a variety of great colours!

While the above styles are very "modern" for Mulberry, here is a more classic picture of their typical bags, leather and colouring. 

Mulberry handbags will be updated shortly to include all their new styles.  I finally have the good pictures!

Happy Shopping!!
