I generally use larger-sized purses that are able to hold my bank cards alongside banknotes, with a separate 'zipped' section to hold my coins. This style of purse is not always suitable for smaller handbags however as they are generally far too big to fit properly in them. Clutch handbags in particular are not suitable for large purses as there just isn't enough room inside to accommodate them inside. This led me to hunt out a more petite alternative. I had a really nice new handbag, in a small 'rucksack' design and I knew my largely-sized purses wouldn't fit inside, or if they did, there would be no room left for anything else in the handbag..!

WHAT IS IT? A coin purse from Accessorize. THE DESIGN It is a small purse with a zip at the top. Mine is navy blue but if they had had the green one I would have bought that because it looks a very attractive colour. The bow is cream and there is matching piping on the front of the purse.

This little coin purse is ...  Read the complete review

For my birthday this year I received several little gifts from my older nieces which I thought was incredibly thoughtful. I normally have homemade gifts which of course I keep but this year as they are now slightly older I received store bought gifts and they were given strict instructions by my brother that they had a certain budget of £5 each to spend (there are 2 of them). Whatever my nieces buy me I know it has been influenced by my sister in law and she generally has very good taste! I had no idea what my nieces had bought me but when I was presented with a very small Accessorize gift bag my eyes lit up and I was eager to unwrap the carefully wrapped ...  Read the complete review
