I do love a good pouch. Anything that means I can hold my flats, lipstick, make-up and the myriad of other bits of crap I keep about my person at all times, while completing my outfit is certainly a winner with me. 

This rose gold/Bronze piece of art from Jil Sander however is on another level. 

I'm already a huge fan of a rose-hued metallic and this is no exception. 

This is so versatile and large, you can wear it comfortably with almost anything. I prefer a single colour, from head to foot to maximise the impact of this absolute gem of an accessory. Have a look at my suggestions below:

Rose gold is the future, if you don't want to feel like a member of the herd with rose gold earrings and/or mid-sized rings, this is a wonderful, chic alternative that will keep you ahead of the curve!

I am a lover of handbags, but not in the way you would expect. I appreciate them, I always covet the latest satchel and cross body bag going. My bag purchases however are few and far between. 

Why? Because I shove my whole life, the kitchen sink and my ubiquitous emergency flats into my handbag so I NEVER change it. It needs to be sturdy, look effortlessly chic and go with the entirety of my wardrobe. I am often laughed at because I am known to lug my giant bag everywhere with me, even on nights out. 

I buy once a year, if that. I'm am currently lugging my ever so easy and effortless Longchamp around with me. And this is the bag I want next. 

Willow Tote, Mulberry

The Mulberry Willow is roomy, functional and utterly breathtaking on your arm.

It even (if you are so inclined) has an inbuilt emergency shoe holder!

Not only is this a beautiful bag, it can carry everything you need and more and make you look effortlessly chic while doing it. 

Want! Want, Want on a Wednesday!

Liberty of London Pochette

There are few things more versatile than a pochette. An essential piece of kit seen everywhere during for the fashion season from the super busy buyers to fashion bloggers. This versatile, and useful little pocket of fun can hold your phone, make-up and your ever important notebook and pen, while looking effortlessly chic and ready to note down those important trends for the seasons ahead.

These little pouches of useful goodness also lend themselves quite well to the 'new' way to hold onto your possessions; clutching on to them for dear life.  Some are also gifted with an ever handy (see what I did there) wrist strap across the front to help you carry this with style.

My personal favourite is the fun, bright and completely beautiful Liberty of London version. Best paired with a neutral palette (all black with a 'pop' of colour) this is an accessory that defines 'day to night' without even breaking a sweat.

We should all be advocates of the 'pochette' it is here to stay!

Here are the best of the rest:

It is getting closer to the party season and I am already planning my outfit list for the plethora of Christmas parties I will be throwing and attending. For this weeks' #WantItWednesday I am focusing on one of my favourite loves. Handbags. 

The go to designer for modern luxury is Sophie Hulme, famed for her 'Armour Collection' my bag of the week is the beautiful and perfect for the party season. The 'Arrow Leather Clutch' has the signature hardware of which Hulme is famed with beautiful, butter-soft black leather. It also has a secret shoulder strap for when you are ready to party hard!

The bag is not only beautiful but incredibly versatile. It can add an edge to a flirty, floral look or be endlessly chic with an all black ensemble. this will definitely be my go to option for every festive sartorial crisis. Please excuse the hyperbole but it would certainly solve all of life's problems!
