I have to admit - I loved school. And I particularly loved stocking up on new pencils, funky erasers, rulers and pens to pop in my tan leather satchel, with two pockets on the front and double straps. I've always been a bag girl and I adored by little school bag with my name written very clearly on the inside by my Sugah Mamma - awwww!

So I've always had a thing about satchel style bags and when I spotted the Mulberry Rockley last year I was brought immediately to that warm cosy place of free milk and learning for fun. The Mulberry was a teensy bit pricey for my budget so I'd been keeping my eye out for something similar ever since. And then I saw THIS! (See gorgeous satchel bag left).

A properly grown-up soft leather satchel and at £69? A bargain to boot!

I must have it. Now. Back to school style never looked so chic!

Luckily it's available in stores right now and comes in this gorgeous tan as well as a dark luxurious chocolate leather.
