Even if there wasn’t a new mini bag trend next season, I would still be drooling uncontrollably over Mulberry’s delicious Postman’s Lock shoulder bag.

In a delightfully violent shade of violet, this mini bag is sure to make a statement whatever you team it with – and it’ll work wonderfully well with next season’s sumptuous jewel tones.

With its gold-toned hardware, long shoulder strap and metallic stud details, this shoulder bag just oozes style and luxury. I mean, come on, it’s adorable. One would be a complete idiot to walk past such a perfectly formed little number.

What isn’t as adorable, however, is its accompanying price tag. At £675, I can feel my credit card shuddering uncontrollably in my purse. But, when you consider the following statement, £675 will sound more like kid’s candy.

It’s Mulberry. There. I knew you’d change your mind.
