Tipperary Crystal Handbags

Tipperary Crystal Handbags

Bag style is really a decision about how you want to carry it and how much you need to fit, and the range divides cleanly along those lines. A tote is open-topped and roomy, carried on the shoulder or in the hand, and it is the everyday choice when a bag doubles as a work or shopping bag. A satchel is structured with a defined shape and a flap or zip closure, so it holds its form when half empty and looks more formal than a tote. A crossbody is worn on a long strap across the body, which frees both hands and keeps the bag in front of you, and mini crossbody versions carry a phone, cards and keys rather than a full day's contents. A shoulder bag sits between the two, and quilted finishes read dressier than plain. Matching wallet purses are worth noting because they are sold in the same colourways as the bags, so a purse and bag can be bought as a set. On colour, the range runs neutral rather than seasonal, with black, grey, greige, taupe, tan, olive and navy, which means a bag stays in use across years rather than one summer. Greige is a grey-beige that works with both, and it is the most versatile of the set.

Tipperary Crystal supplies the whole range. Totes cover the Sicily in grey, black and tan. Satchels cover the Savoy large in grey and olive. Crossbody bags cover the Chelsea in navy and a Chelsea pouch in black, the Miami mini in tan, the Brooks in greige and the Eden mini in black, tan, olive and greige. Handbags cover the Genoa in grey, olive and taupe, and the Palermo quilted shoulder bag in black. Matching purses cover the Genoa wallet in taupe and olive and the Umbria wallet in grey.
