Buy me? beaded bag
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.This little bag really does scream "buy me!" It is one of those luxuries we can do without, but at the same time, we cannot. Isn't fashion delightfully fickle?.
The bag is from Samantha Heskia's second collection; her designs are already swinging from the trendiest arms in Britain. All are made to order in the colour or combination of your choice. Styles include satin- lined envelope bags and drawstring pouches.
The one here is a mini beach bag, designed to contain the essentials for the seaside, patch of grass or outdoor pool. Tube of sunscreen, a novel and shades fit happily, but think about somewhere else to put loose change. The workmanship is faultless, and because it's reinforced with extra- strong wire (which holds the hand-picked beads together), however dainty the bag is, you don't have to be.
Available from Johnny Moke, 396 King's Road, London SW3, 0171-351 2232; to order from Samantha Heskia, 0171-373 7613. Prices start at pounds 60. MELANIE RICKEY
