Well I made my first ever trip to Bicester on Saturday and I decided to get an Oak Phoebe. I didn't get any purses or keyrings though - and they didn't have the wallet my hubby was after.
I have been after a Phoebe for ages and the Lemon Roxy I tried to was really ME. I think I would prefer a Roxy in Chocolate or Oak.
I was quite impressed with the Mulberry shop (well Bicester on the whole really) but then I have never been before and it was actually my first step inside a Mulberry shop so lets just say I would be easily impressed.
The staff were very helpful and patient even when I kept going from one purse cabinet to another and they had to lock one and open another and then back again!
I suppose they didn't have that many bags really. Well they did but they seemed to have quite a lot of the same bag - they had about 12 Oak Phoebes.
I don't know the names of a lot of the bags yet so I couldn't tell you what they had except that they didn't have any colour except 1 Lemon Roxy, some White'ish' tasselled Roxys, Phoebes and Blenhiems, a Salmon pink Phoeobe and a Gold Snakeskin Mabel.
Everything else they had seemed to be Oak.
They had a lot of purses I just didn't really like any of them - I'm very particular.
They had a big stud ball keychain but nothing else really - I was after one of the cats!
The other thing is that they have run out of dustbags so I have to contact Mulberry and get them to send one to me but I'll doubt I'll need it for a while anyway because I will be using my Phoebe.
I have been able to add some bags to my wishlist though - I was tempted by an Oak Effie and a Chocolate Brooke. Also, having seen the Lemon Roxy and also seen a couple of ladies at Bicester with Oak Roxys I think I want an Oak or a Chocolate Roxy.
We have already arranged with our friends that we are going back up again in early June so I'll start planning now!!!!!
I won't be able to make the Meet on 10th May but now I've been to Bicester I can picture where you will all go!!!!!! Have fun.
Will post photos later.
