While I live in Australia and our weather is warm enough even in winter to warrant a visit to the beach (not to swim), I am more of a tailored/city dresser and feel a bit daft with a beach bag anywhere but the beach. Being practical I use a canvas bag since straw and sand are a disaster. Having said that, I bought a pretty straw clutch last year after seeing it on your blog. It's never left the house..shopping fail...BUT we are off to Bali in a few days and it's packed and ready to go out to dinner somewhere tropical and beachy! Ta da, shopping win.RachelKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01456540164562652169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-77874365557584292772017-08-01T16:52:25.752-07:002017-08-01T16:52:25.752-07:00I agree about the bulkiness of those bags although...I agree about the bulkiness of those bags although the longer more woven shape very nice. Just got a shirt in the sale at Topshop that I had tried on full price and now reduced - pink flamingos on it , thats my Brighton Pride top sorted although now need pick vest to go under it is it may not be a complete bargain!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14393438312237323862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-83993473913431558222017-08-01T14:11:50.963-07:002017-08-01T14:11:50.963-07:00Whilst I adore the chic ladies on insta with their...Whilst I adore the chic ladies on insta with their basket bags I am giving them a pass. Summer is over in Scotland (it never really started) and I am on the lookout for the perfect long winter boot instead :) Love your blog as always Kat xT. K.

I may have already bought a pair of skinny jeans with a velvet side stripe and a cashmere breton, not to mention a Ilse Jacobsen rain coat (it was half price so rude not to) that I've been eyeing up for months. I do have seasonal clothes, it's more about the weight and cosy factor rather than a complete change of style though.Danish Pastryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05123972992199553087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-82060202020789580512017-08-01T13:38:16.935-07:002017-08-01T13:38:16.935-07:00I can't work out how to transport a straw bag ...I can't work out how to transport a straw bag on holiday.. I wouldn't want to take it on as hand luggage as everything would fall out, and it would take up loads of room in a case..nwoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03994639945378855031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-28787271006901108072017-08-01T13:31:53.377-07:002017-08-01T13:31:53.377-07:00I'm with you on the leather bags.

Having been on holiday I'm over the sales and looking forward to all the lovely new season stock. Bikinis all packed away for me!!!Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04365615332540383668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-30787471740476716812017-08-01T13:07:24.736-07:002017-08-01T13:07:24.736-07:00It amazes me that websites don't check the pho...It amazes me that websites don't check the photos they put up - that River Island bag is clearly missing a yellow tassel in the middle - looks like it's been ripped off! As for summer v autumn, I'm still checking the dregs of the sale "just in case", but on the other hand I've ordered some burgundy leather combat boots! I am one of those people though that wears the same winter or summer, just in varying layers. My mum always used to have a bag of "summer clothes" in the attic that came down in May, but to me summer is just a t-shirt without a jumper over it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
