If you've just come back from your summer holidays or are saving for Christmas then you might find that you don't have the budget you'd like to be able to spend on one of life's necessities - handbags.
There's no need to abandon your love of handbags though as if you shop smart, you will be able to invest in handbags which will work with your look from now until next season.
Below are two key handbags for this season and three different ways you can wear them. .
Oufi London Pippa
This beautiful mini satchel can be worn both across the body or used as a grab bag, which means you can instantly double your outfit options.
Try these three looks below to maximise this cute and casual bag.
- Wear the Pippa bag by Oufi with a chocolate brown cape, full skirt and calf length boots for a super cosy look for the winter months. The mix of browns will add a warm, layered look to your style and ensure this outfit is highly wearable for everything from a weekend in the country to a laidback day at the office.
- For a look to see you through the warmer autumn days you can wear the Pippa satchel with cut off denim shorts. To ensure you don't freeze, wear black tights under your shorts and team up with a relaxed hoody for a casual look which is perfect for the cinema or wandering around the shops.
- Create a girly look with a short, floaty floral skirt and wear with a plain t-shirt (grey or pale peach are ideal options) and strap your Pippa bag across your body. You can dress this look up with a blazer and heels for drinks with the girls or wear with pumps and a cardigan for a more laidback look.
