DH and I took a trip to Manchester yesterday - earlier in the week I noticed one of the locks on my Milton shoulder bag had become extremely loose, so I arranged to take in to the Mulberry store there to be sent for repair. Thought we might as well make a day of it!
The standalone store is lovely, lots on sale including the lipstick colour bags, and LOTS of keyrings/small leathers. Great clothes too, was tempted by a purple dress...
Didn't buy anything but left Milton there to be sent off. Trawled round lots of other shops, and naturally visited other Mulberry concessions. Selfridges had NO sale stock at all, about one or two purses, that was it, they'd been completely cleaned out. Harvey Nicks had some (including a couple of champagne Bays clutches), and the HOF there had limited stock. However while in HOF chatting to the lovely SA that we noticed a stud on my black araline (which I love) had come off! (it must have been very recent)
So back I go to the Mulberry store to add it to the Milton to go back for repair. I felt bereft! SAs were lovely, they put my things in a carrier bag and emptied half a tray of counter chocolates into it as well. So now I'm two bags down and wait...
Only bought the Milton in the last few months and had the receipt, but its highly unlikely I've got anything for the Araline. I do hope they can fix her as I know they don't make them anymore - what happens if they can't? I haven't sent anything for repair for a while, save a roxanne stud AGES ago.
Anyway, hope all is well on this fine saturday for you all!
