I have rather a thing for Cath Kidston fabrics - I find the old fashioned, rather kitsch floral designs rather beautiful. My mum knows this, and for a housewarming gift when I moved, rather than risk giving me some decorative item I might not like, or a practical item I might already have, she gave me a Cath Kidston book bag, which I was delighted to receive. The shape of the bag is as you see above, rectangular with straps made of the same patterned fabric as the bag. However, there are a range of fabric designs, and I don't have the floral one pictured above. You see, in dress sense I'm something of a tomboy, and as stunning at the floral designs are, a ...  Read the complete review

Cath Kidston Book Bag - Spot berry When I went back to university last year I soon learnt that trying to over commute quite a distance and take with me all the library books, notebooks and general handbag items was a bit of a nightmare. I wanted a substantial bag to carry my books about, but I didn't want to resort to a back pack and I wanted something more stylish and something that I could easily carry around with another handbag, while being large enough to hold everything I needed. I first started looking at cloth bags but I soon went off the idea because I live in Scotland and you never know when it is going to rain, it can be sunny one moment and ...  Read the complete review

Me and my lovely boyfriend have only been together for just under three weeks and so when he brought me a bag full of presents round over Christmas, I assumed a majority would be chocolate, teddies and all the other stuff that guys stereotypically buy their new girlfriends at Christmas. I'm not the easiest person to buy for so most people buy me simple stuff - not many people dare buy me clothes, bags or stuff like that! After opening most of the presents, I came across a medium sized square present which I expected to be either a chocolate orange or one of those tacky mugs with a personalised message. How wrong was I! He'd discuised the bag well by having it ...  Read the complete review

My mum is so cute and always buys me little gifts and presents. Last year when we went Christmas shopping to York with her work, we travelled by coach (even though we only live about 40 minutes away!) and on the way she gave me a beautifully wrapped gift. When I opened it she had bought me a Cath Kidston book bag (just because apparently!), which she figured would be ideal for our shopping day. As you can imagine, I was delighted! The book bag by Cath Kidston is super stylish and super practical at the same time. It can be used for anything, not just books, and I use it nearly every day, as I almost always have something else I need to carry with me that won't ...  Read the complete review

As a little Christmas gift my Aunt bought me a Cath Kidston Book Bag. I am a big fan of Cath Kidston and all things made/designed by her and my family always buy me a few items at Christmas's and birthdays which I always love. The book bag I was bought is in the English Rose pattern of which I also have a diary which matches very nicely. This is a nice pale blue background, with a variety of lovely large bunches of pink, blue and yellow flowers. I really like this pattern as it is one of her more classic looks and the flowers and leaves look hand painted. These colours seem to match everything and it looks very stylish and pretty. You can tell it is Cath ...  Read the complete review
