Bag Crush: Cath Kidston’s Bowler Bag

05.09.2016 by Leah // 7 Comments

I’ve always wanted to own a classic bowler bag, so you can just imagine my excitement when I saw that my favorite British bag brand has come up with one, in its signature design and material (PVC coated cotton):

Cath Kidston’s version of a bowler bag is perfect for me who doesn’t like high maintenance bags and would like to enjoy it for everyday use.  No luxury leather material to maintain, no glossy/shiny hardware (that’s prone to scratches) and just plain cuteness with Cath Kidston’s classic buttons print.

Cath Kidston’s bowler bag comes in 2 sizes: a regular bag that measures 35 x 21 x 17 cm. and a mini version (which I prefer) that measures 25 x 19 x 15 cm.

The adjustable, removable strap gives one an added flexibility of carrying it as shoulder bag too.

Don’t you just love it??  And the price is absolutely pocket-friendly (as compared to signature bowler bags).  This mini version that I heart is priced at only £55.00 (reference: cathkidston.com).

But for sure the Cath Kidston shops in Manila will sell it at 2x the online price (are duties and taxes really that expensive??) so I am thinking of ordering it online.

And while I’m at it, I might as well get this limited edition birthday book bag commemorating the Queen’s 90th birthday!

      Hi Donna! You’re right; my orders can’t get through as well. I’m still checking if they have changed their online shopping guidelines. Sayang dami pa naman naka-sale!!

    I like this style; I find it a classic. 🙂 Was browsing through their selection of bags at the Trinoma Branch, pero ang mahalia! Kaya hanggang browse na lang ako. 😉

Today is daddy's 11th month in heaven 💜 The coming weeks are sure going be tough for me because the painful memories from last year will start coming back as we approach his 1st death anniversary. I miss our family bonding time whether in Cebu or Makati, at the mall or simply at home. The over-extended quarantine has made it very difficult for us create new memories as a family (outside videocalls, that is). But I know that with God's grace we will overcome. 🙏
