Bag of the week

Special Price: £69.50 (was £105.60)
Offer ends: Midnight, 16th June

Say hello to the very first Bag of the Week! This week’s spotlight is on the Smile Fantoosh – a joyful one-of-a-kind creation bursting with personality and handmade charm.

As part of the launch of this brand-new feature, we’ve given it a special price of £69.99, down from its original £105.60 – a rare bargain for something so unique.

But don’t hang about – there’s only one available, and once it’s gone, it’s gone. If it’s still here after the 16th of June, it’ll return to its original price.

What’s New!

Its a small one. A new small bag or phone pouch for when you want to travel light!
