English Roses

Posted by Sarah, Associate Fashion Editor

I’ve seen these Megan Park painted leather purses twice now, once in a showroom, and again in a store the other day. Both times, I was instantly drawn to them. The East London-based designer hand-creates her pretty prints using carved wooden blocks, as described in loving detail in her website bio.

You could carry this as a clutch, or keep it inside a larger handbag to hold all those “just in case” things that we girls like to carry around: Band-Aids, floss, business cards, no fewer than five lip glosses, lollipops, thread, salt and pepper packets … this list could go on indefinitely. And at $85, you could even buy one in each of the three colors (pardon the wrappings, showroom shot).

hahaha - Oh, you were serious. Precious as they are, I wouldn't consider an $85 clutch to be near "affordable" enough to stock up on one in every color.
