It's such a great piece, definitely a good impulse buy that you won't regret. All of the previous collection items that I was interested in have been transferred. Maybe it's for the best, if things were half price I'd have bought double!

You're right I would be tempted too! I have a feeling the pochette will be discontinued soon due to all the new designs which are being introduced so I'm very happy I managed to get one!

I hope it's not discontinued, I really love the style! I was looking at a Gucci Soho Disco last month but the colour I liked sold out during the sale. I've also been thinking about the Chanel camera style bags but I think they're an older style and I'd have to buy pre-owned.

congrats! i wanted to get this color too. i am new to mulberry and just happened to check out the sale online while my baby is sleeping. i bought the taupe pochette and can't wait to pick it up at the boutique. like you, i find myself needing smaller compact bags. i find the idea of this pochette good and i love taupe. do you mind checking where the made in tag is located and see where yours is made? i bought the pochette in a rush or better said on impulse but the price is good so it's okay. i have an iphone 6 plus, would that fit in the pochette? so sorry for the questions and thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks all for the lovely comments. I can't see a made it label? Maybe it's just me? Quality seems ok though- definitely not as good as mulberry from yester-year but much better than a recent alexa i purchased. Fits iPhone 6s plus in snugly. Hope this helps. Enjoy your new bag, taupe looked fabulous! x

It's quite hard to find at first I had to pull the card slot away to see it! That's interesting to know about the Alexa I was very tempted to get one in the sale but I'm saving for my wedding so got the Pochette instead! I'll bear what you said in mind when I'm ready to make a bigger purchase! :smile:

thank you laura! i agree, the quality is what kept me off mulberry but marketing works on me. i saw an ad about the mulberry sale and told myself why not. i am also tempted to get an ostrich lily but i don't like it to be made in china. please don't get me wrong. there is nothing wrong with made in china but for me, mulberry is a traditional english brand so it must be made in england. i am weird but i like my burberry trench to be made in england, my chanel classic flap to be made in france. i am so fussy sometimes. it's not even funny anymore. the pochette is an exception...

Mulberry exotics are almost never made in England. They are nearly all from Spain or Italy. ostrich is normally Spain. There is a village that specialises in it and nearly everyone there works in the leather industry. Most other luxury brands use the same village but then finish their bags in France, Italy so they can change the made in.
