Mulbery - Alexa Designer Handbag

We've all seen those “desert island” lists of what you might bring with you if you were stranded on a desert island. Rarely however, does this apply to designer handbags. Sure, it is considered a luxury item, but most of us who follow fashion to any extent would likely struggle to make it through the rest of our lives with only one handbag. Therefore, the question is raised; if you had to settle upon one and only one handbag for your trip to the ubiquitous desert island (assuming of course that the desert island has shops and restaurants that would necessitate a handbag), which style would you choose? For the perfect blend of practicality meets chic minimalism, look no further than the Mulberry Alexa handbag. The Alexa was originally designed as a hybrid of two of Mulberry's most popular items; the Bayswater bag and the Elkington briefcase. Crafted from supple leather with minimal hardware and a detachable shoulder strap, the Alexa is just the right size; not so big as to burden your movements (on a desert island you should save energy by wearing the bag cross-body with the detachable strap), but just big enough to be able to fit the essentials like a tablet, sunscreen, a bathing suit, makeup bag, wallet, camera, and any other “essentials” you just might be able to sneak onto your island. The medium-sized Alexa really is the perfect happy medium.
