I have become a bit obsessed (well really a lot obsessed!)

with backpack bags.

The practicality of a hands-free carrier certainly appeals.

 

…

I have been desirous of a leather briefcase backback for some time:

structured frame

smart look

compact size

ample interior

…

On the look out

I spotted the perfect bag,

which ticked all the boxes:

the Alfie Douglas briefcase bag.

Designed and manufactured in England

by a family of creative talents

(a mum, dad and their daughters),

the bag of my briefcase backpack dreams

is toffee brown with contrasting black straps.

It’s simple and elegant.

…

I had the pleasure of meeting the members of this

design family at the recent London Fashion Weekend (LFWend).

They are as gracious as their bags are beautifully crafted.

…

I ‘gotta have it!’ and I did just that.

Yeah me!
