My Love of Orla Kiely Bags

Years ago when I lived in London I used to go into Libertys and look longingly at Orla Kiely bags. I  promised myself I would buy myself before I left the big smoke but never did....

Then I went to Dublin in 2004 for my Hen Do. There in Browns Department store was a wonderful collection of Orla bags. Since I was there for a special reason I figured it was time for my credit card to treat me. This is the bag I bought...

As you can see its very well worn now. I have used it pretty much every day since I bought it and still love it. Its a perfect everyday bag.

I always hoped I would find one of Orla’s bags that would be suitable for using a night time and this winter she brought out the stunning Holly Bag. Bingo that was the one, I waited until the post Christmas sales and luckily it was reduced by £100 in Fenwick, I bought it on my birthday and used it that night. This is it....

To top it off I went food shopping last week at Tescos and bought this little number from there....

I can now say I have an Orla Kiely bag for every eventuality, what a lucky girl I am :)
