I have to agree with mette. Some of Mulberry’s bags look so stiff and uncomfortable. Others are downright hideous. The Shimmy tote does look better than other Mulberry bags I’ve seen, but it’s still pretty “blah”. Nice colour though! Those big “tool boxey” rings though are terrible.

P.S Out of curiosity I went to our local Mulberry shop yesterday to see for myself what they had. As I feared, the bags were, in person, worse than in pictures. I didn´t like the leather used. The bags and accessories were rough and did indeed look cheap. I´m still waiting for Mulberry´s brake out.

I’m falling in love with these soft leather bags, I LOVE the lack of structure…it’s just so soft and delicious! Totally casual without looking sloppy!

I don´t like Mulberry bags. I know that I have expressed my dislike before and the bag pictured does not make an exception. The leather looks tired and the bag lacks structure. I admit that the bags are affordable, but that is not enough. I´d like to see something very special coming out from the house of Mulberry.

The leather on this bag looks soft and yummy. I know that’s an odd word, but it looks comfortable and very wearable. It’s nice to see something unstructured for once!

I just love this bag; it’s sooo pretty! I just wish the shoulder strap had been a bit longer though, so it would be easier to wear the bag across the body too..

Ohhh the leather look so pretty! The color is awesome and I do like the simple look of it!

I fell in love with Mulberry the first time I saw the Bayswater. i love the extra strap on this one and the color is amazingly rich.

Im really getting on board with Mulberry too. I think the metal hardware is very original and funky….and if sheep’s leather is anything like sheepskin coats im guessing its gonna be quite yummy and soft.

I actually really love the rough-looking, chunky hardware, but that’s just a personal preference. And I’d probably remove the extra strap, since I hate extra straps anyway.

Ever since the bayswaters, I started noticing mulberry’s bag… i used to think their bags are known for the leather not the style… But not til these two years, especially this season, with the colorful creased patent mitzy boho, and this one, i just totally fall in love w/ it… “i heart mulberry”

The leather indeed looks gorgeous and the color looks rich & deep, but the hardware is bugging me. Those loops and clips look like they came straight from a tool box. And why pair what appears to be a long nylon strap with such a nice bag?
