Beatrix New York Tablet Case Review

I've written many times about my bag habit, so when I was offered these lush tablet cases from Beatrix NewYork, I obviously said yes!

I'm from the school of thought, that one can never have too many bags. There's always that next new outfit or previously unchartered ground that calls for one thing and one thing only. 

A new bag.

iPad Cases, Tablet Cases, Laptop Bags

They of course come into a category of their own and if you are anything at all like me - then they are actually the main category of bags in your life as I never leave home without at least two bits of tech and my essentials to stay connected.

The kids do a lot of travelling from A to B and an awful lot of hanging around at dance classes and swimming galas, so having their iPads in protective bags is essential to my sanity.

Enter the Beatrix NewYork tablet cases in four rather cute designs and two tween girls to put them through their paces. 

First Impressions

Cute designs that appeal to all ages. Very nicely padded with a lush soft lining that keeps screens clean and scratch free and a top loading zip for easy access.

Added Bonus

They are also water resistant, PVC, Phthalate, lead and BPA free, should you want to chomp on them, though I see no reason to want to. And the 10.1" size makes them perfect for a range of tablets and not just iPads.

A perfect xmas gift I think! 

Available in the UK from John Lewis, or visit www.beatrixny.com for more info.

DISCLOSURE: I was sent a Beatrix New York tablet case in order to write this review. However the views and opinions are all my own.

Cambridge Satchel LOVE

I've always been a satchel lover and until it was lost in a house move ten years ago I still regularly used the  satchel that my god mother bought me to celebrate my first day at junior school back in 1978. It was aged perfectly and personalised inside with my name and address written in my own naive script.

I loved that bag and I've been looking to replace it for years but nothing ever quite hit the mark.

Then I came across these new fluo delights from the Cambridge Satchel Company and I'm in satchel heaven again.

I went for the fluro green 14" so that my macbook fits perfectly inside and I'm one happy bunny!

Satchels are going to be the bag of the season - mark my words!

Fluro satchel from Cambridge Satchel Company. Available in four colours and four sizes, just to make it difficult to choose.

Another Bag? Barbara Hulanicki for Top Shop

I do apologise for the fact that I can't seem to get off bags at the moment and as I bought this yesterday I thought that I should share it.

So this isn't necessarily a mummy product but it is a shopping bag and everyone has to shop - be you a mummy or not.

I do try to be a good girl when it comes to not using plastic bags and whilst it seems that lots of people are managing at the supermarket it all goes to pot when you hit the highstreet.

I have so many of these reusable bags that I could have my own web store selling them but that doesn't stop me from adding to my collection! This new beauty is from the iconic Barbara Hulanicki's new range for Top Shop. I have been so inspired by her over the years that i even named my middle daughter after her iconic sixties store, BIBA.

I know that I am going to have yet another fight on my hands over who actually gets to keep this - me or one of the girls. I do promise that we don't fight all the time - just when it comes to bags!

I can only imagine what it is going to be like when they are after my clothes too!
