Back from Mulberry heaven in London

As this was really a business trip, I didn't have a lot of time for shopping, and therefore no visit to an outlet either, but at least I managed to see the flagship in Bond Street and Selfridges - very friendly SAs!

At Bond Street, they have the Kate Moss Alligator Bays to drool over (and to take home for £ 7500). I absolutely loved their display of Ledburies, made me realize what a cute bag this is and I should really take mine out more often! And Harrods had the (I think) python Roxy in a vitrine, probably the same one I saw there last time. I also saw the new aqua Mabel and a choice of items in fuchsia patent. Really suited the spring feeling there last week, lots of color, compared to our very limited choice here which comes mainly in oak and black!

I hardly ever see Mulberry bags in the streets here, and I was so impressed how many people carried Roxies, Anthonies and - by far the most - Bays through the capital. I saw a lady with the bi-color Bays with the fringe/pearl decoration, and I sat next to a woman on a bus who had what I believe is the conker - non-darwin - leather Bays, well-worn, but I was too shy to ask her ...

Mulberry at Terminal 5 didn't have a big choice, so I didn't really compare prices, and I wouldn't recommend to wait for the return journey if one is after something special.

And finally, here is what came home with me - justifiable to myself only since the € / £ relation is quite nice right now, and one of the items wouldn't be shipped abroad, so it is something special I would not normally have a chance to get my hands on ....
:love:
