Malene Birger’s Chic Summer Handbags

We absolutely love this 1970′s style By Malene caramel patent bag at £314. Wear it with a wide brimmed hat, oversized sunglasses and a flowing kaftan and you’ll look like you have just arrived from the Riviera. However, with it’s inner zip for valuables and a pocket for your mobile it’s ideal for urban life. There is a large gold buckle on the front and the straps are ample for swinging over your shoulder. It’s one of those tardis bags that you can fit an unbelievable amount inside – I can recognise them at a glance!

This white leather By Malene handbag has a rosette and tassles at the front and is so on trend for all those summer weddings. It does fit over your shoulder, but I think it also looks great hanging from the crook of your arm. Again, it has all the necessary pockets for your valuables and costs £330. For each collection Malene Birger chooses a few items that are her absolute favourites and labels them her ‘Darlings” This is indeed a darling bag!
