Style note: The Charlton collection of bags is something of an enigma. The mini bag is gorgeous – but, well, it’s mini and too small really for the carry all Charlton purse which is quite a decent sized purse – well organised, and suited to a nice big Michael Kors bag. Nonetheless, both the mini bag and the purse are nearly sold out at Harrods so you’d better get your skates on if you want one.

Style note: I have not seen a designer handbag in this pretty shade of pale chalk blue before, but it is lovely. It would go beautifully well with washed denim jeans, and it would also team well with the neutral silks and layers that are so big this season. I also like the square shape of this bag – it almost gives it a retro feel, but make no mistake, this handbag is bang on trend.
