I was in the Oxford Street Topshop yesterday and this totally Barbiefied 'Quilted Molly' bag from Paul's Boutique caught my eye. I needed a new everyday bag as the two I purchased from Thailand in the Summer have both since fallen apart (false economy - buying fakes probably isn't cheaper in the long run!) so I pranced around in front of the mirrors with this pink delight and purchased it on a whim.
The keyrings make me want to be vomit. Violently. They're just absolutely vile. I know they're a Pauls Boutique signature but, bleugh, thank GOD they're removable. As you can see in the above photos I've photographed the bag with the keyrings and without. I am definitely preferring how it looks without the keyrings so good riddance to them they will not be returning to this bag - they can go and live on my car keys (or, more likely, in the deep dark depths of a drawer somewhere).
You can purchase this exact bag from Bank or Pauls Boutique or you can purchase it in blue (and other colours) from Topshop
I know this wont be to everyone's tastes but I just adore it. I love the bright pink colour, the quilted detail, the patent pink handles, the fact that the zip has a little padlock so there's no chance of anyone pickpocketing you or all your things falling out, the sturdiness and the super tacky leaoprd print interior. Plus I's such a good size - it can fit all your daily necessities but it's not so big that you overfill it and end up rummaging for hours - rummaging around in huge bags full of crap is the bane of my life -although I give it a month before it's full of rubbish and covered in makeup....
....Enjoy your time being pretty and shiny and clean while it lasts little bag!

Gorgeous. But you're right about the keyrings. the pop of yellow is cute but the actual keyrings look tacky.

I love the color and shape! I think the keyring brought too much of a childish factor to it, but I think without them that it will be a fresh pop of color to an outfit. And I don't think the leopard print is tacky at all. It's fun to have an unexpected printed lining in a bag! :)
