Boasting a wrinkled-patent finish, this black boxy bag is a low-key, yet on-point option, perfect for when the rest of you is having a colourful moment. Try it with juicy orange and refreshing white separates for a head-turning look. Bonus points for the zip that works both ways.
An accessible brand with genuine kudos, Charles & Keith has put the creativity back into affordable accessories. Its shoe and bag collections are always on the money, making them a hit with the British style press. Although it’s a global brand, it’s a relative newcomer to the British high street, so our advice is to get it early before everyone catches on.
