Mulberry’s iconic Bayswater bag is kind of the poor woman’s Birkin. It’s classic and conservative, and about a quarter of the price of an Hermes bag. This leopard print version is classy, chic, and a little bit glamorous.
The leopard-printed calf hair is the most interesting thing about this bag, as far as I’m concerned. The small leopard spots aren’t as ostentatious as your average animal print, and the luxurious calf hair adds a little more texture without sacrificing sophistication.
The classic shape of the Bayswater makes it versatile for almost any daytime occasion. It’s the kind of bag your office mates will drool over, as well as the girlfriends you meet for happy hour. The generous, but manageable size, is great for women on the go who don’t need to take absolutely everything with them.
The details on the Bayswater are subtle and refined. The gold turnlock clasp on the front flap is a discrete oval shape and the seam details belie the bags high-quality craftsmanship. Everything about the Bayswater bag is of unquestionably high taste, and while I find the simple leather versions a little boring, this leopard print style has a lot of sass.
At $2,650, the Bayswater isn’t actually for poor women, but it is a lot less than a Birkin, so if you like classic tailoring and neutral tones, the Bayswater may be your next It bag.
