Flip through the latest issue of Gulf Weekly.
WE ladies do love our handbags and these days we can have one for all occasions.
There are lots of very expensive trendy designer handbags around at the moment but luckily, if designer prices are just not in your budget, similar designed bags can be found at a snip of the price.
Fendi spy bags are hot right now. They come in a variety of colours and white for the summer is very popular.
Fendi buckle patent bags are in high demand and very expensive and you can also obtain matching purses in the same design.
Chloe bowling bag and Chloe ‘Paddington’ and ‘baby Paddington’ are a firm fixture on many a celebrities arms right now (bag with huge padlock attached).
Also look out for the Chloe ‘Bay’ bag which was inspired by 70s retro luggage with a signature gold plaque and super large zips.
At the moment I like the Prada ‘Gauffre’ ruche shopping bag, its big and roomy but pricey.
Similar, more affordable designs can be found at Mango and Mark & Spencer’s.
Another oversized bag which is a favourite this season is the YSL ‘Downtown’ bag in black, red and white but you will be pleased to know that Fiorelli do a similar design at a more realistic price.
In general, when it comes to fashionable handbags, the bigger the bag the better and don’t forget to add a sparkling eye-catching bag charm to catch more stares than your bag will.
Luxury indulge: Clarins Intense Bronze self tan tint
vs
Bargain purchase: Garnier skin natural summer body lotion.
Now I don’t normally go near self-tan products but my friends convinced me to try both of the above.
Garnier summer body lotion is an excellent product which is reasonably priced.
It has extracts of Chamomile and smells very fruity.
Apply it daily as a body lotion and it gradually builds a natural-looking sun-kissed tan which makes your skin really glow.
