Flower Power: Cath Kidston Bag Review

Friday, May 27, 2011

About a week ago now I ordered a Cath Kidston bag, I suppose it was an impulse buy, but who could resist?! Especially when it's from the range of Tote Bags on the site...
It came in the most adorable wrapping...

And the bag looks like this!

It's the Winter Meadow Regular Total Bag. I've realised this is the bag i've been longing for. Especially on those day trips out and to the beach in the summer. It's a hard-wearing bag with a gorgeous floral pattern and has fab pockets on the inside, and let's face it it fits EVERYTHING in!

A bit of background info on Cath Kidston:
- Cath Kidston Ltd was founded in 1993 when designer Cath Kidston opened a tiny shop in London's Holland Park.
- Her clever, witty re-working of traditional English country house style meant that her shop soon became a cult success.
- She soon began to design her own prints & products, one of the first was a printer ironing board cover with a distinctive floral print.
- Cath's aim has always been to create well-priced, good quality products that are fun practical and original.
- There's been high profile collaborations such as creating tents with Milletts (2005-2006), Nokia Mobile phones with Carphone Warehouse and collectible Radios with Roberts.

- Cath Kidston's published 6 books.
- There are currently 41 Cath Kidston shops and concessions in the UK. She also has two shops in The Republic of Ireland and eleven in Japan and three in Korea!

Modelling my tote bag! - I think the tote bag could be improved slightly though as I thought it'd be my comfortable to carry on my shoulder and maybe a zip so it's more practical for daywear and daily use but I still really like the bag and i'm adore the pattern too. It's going to be used a lot on the beach this summer!

What do you think of Cath Kidston designs? Do you own any Cath Kidston?
Also, don't forget the check out the fab range of Tote bags in all different colours and patterns!
