A Simply Classic Bag: Cambridge Satchel Medium Leather Push Lock Bag

So it's been a while since I made my last blog post mainly due to the fact that my life has been so busy with work and I have just not found the time to sit down and write a post. However today I decided to take some time out and do just that. Recently I have sort of been on a handbag ban and decided to sell the ones I don't use and try to scale down my collection. This was mainly because half of them I never really used and I decided it would be nice to make room for some new ones that I might actually use.

So last week I was just internet browsing and came across this beauty from the Cambridge Satchel Company. Called the Push Lock bag and soon as I saw that it came in the colour Oxblood, I had to have it. For some reason I just love the colour oxblood in a handbag it's sort of my weakness!

I have always wanted to own a bag from the Cambridge Satchel however I found that their satchel were not suited to me. Mainly because they were just a pain to open and shut and they were a bit on the bulky side to carry around with my everyday as an everyday handbag. This bag seems to be more my style because it's so small and compact and it is perfect for carrying your everyday essentials around with you.

This bag comes in three sizes and in the end I ordered the bag in the medium size which is perfect because it just fits my phone, keys and my slim purse in it. I also love the fact that you can remove the strap to be able you to use the bag as a small clutch.  Over the past few days I have really fallen in love with this handbag and to be honest I wouldn't mind another bag like this one but in the large size maybe in the colour tan. If your thinking about treating yourself to one a highly recommend it because it's just such a simple bag that is so well made.

Cambridge Satchel Company 2014 Autumn Collection

I know summer has hardly started here in the UK however the Cambridge Satchel Company has just launched their new 2014 autumn collection online. I have to say there new collection is to die for and if money wasn't a problem I would buy one of each of the new designs for myself. Here are some of my favourites from their new 2014 autumn collection:

1. Expedition Satchel: they have introduction this type satchel in a wide range of colours and two different sizes for men; I really love how this bag looks.

2. The Clutch: I believe this is an existing bag that company have in their collection all year round but for the new season they have brought it out in oxblood and a two-toned colour black and biscuit for the autumn season. I love how this handbag comes with a detachable strap so it gives you the option to wear this handbag two ways.

3. Twist Lock Satchel: this satchel has to be my favourite item from the new collection as a whole; I just love how this satchel looks in the oxblood colour. I also think if you hate the idea of always having to do up the buckles on your satchel this handbag is perfect because it only locks with a twist lock.

4. The Cambridge Satchel: for the new season they have added some new colours into their collection such as hot pink version in the size 11" to 13" and aubergine in the 11" to 15"

5. The Mini: the company have release a mini version of their well known normal everyday size satchel that comes in lots of new colours for the autumn such as oxblood, aubergine, red and two toned editions black with biscuit or black with peach pink. These satchels start at the price £125 and for the toned editions £145.
