Gold leather bag from Mulberry and Alexa Chung

So as you know its not often that i feature celebrity handbags here on cheapdesignerhandbag but i have always liked Alexa Chungs sense of style and this new Mulberry bag really confirms it. I suppose to some the gold leather is a bit gauche but i actually really like it. Also the distressed pattern adds a really cool look to the overall design of the bag, although some will say distressed and gold don’t mix.
I suppose if you are looking for the “metallic” addition to your handbag set then you really cant go wrong with this Mulberry. One thing i do have to mention before you all rush of to the high street or Asos is that this is a limited edition bag and there’s only going to be a 40 of them made. I don’t usually do limited edition bags either on this blog mainly as i want it to be possible for you ladies to go about and buy the handbag yourselves if you like it. However with many of the bags on this site now over £1000 (this one is £750) i know that for alot of you just browsing the latest designer fashion is enough. It also raises the question of what you define as cheap as for some a top designer for £750 is a steal but for others any piece of fashion ware over £200 is excessive.
Still i think its great to see a designer like Mulberry doing something different as i havnt seen a cool gold bag (that doesn’t look tacky) in years. Even if you’re not keen on the celeb endorsement or the price i think this is a soon to be classic handbag (for the lucky 40 who get it).
