If you’re anything like us, then you started writing your Black Friday wish list weeks ago so that when the day comes you’re not left umming and aahing trying to remember what you needed.
The top of our wish list? It’s got to be one of Cambridge Satchel Company’s stunning, British-made bags.
Rocked by the likes of Lady Gaga, Helena Bonham-Carter and none other than Taylor Swift (who rocked the Twist Lock Satchel, which is 30% off here), Cambridge Satchel’s gorgeous (and we mean gorgeous) bags and accessories simply ooze elegance, style and timelessness.
And to be honest, anything worn by Tay is a must, right?
Its stunning bags are the type that you keep and cherish forever- made even better by the fact that they’re far more affordable than you’d think.
Even better? The brand has just launched its Black Friday sale, which sees a huge array of favourite styles and new classics with reductions of up to 30% – including The Saddle Bag, The 15 Inch Batchel in Surf, and The Mini – a smaller version of its classic Satchel.
The Isla in Racing Green
The Isla is the perfect, compact choice for everyday styling to evening al fresco. It boasts a unique circular shape, intricate detailing, rivets on the top handle and a magnetic closure cleverly disguised as a buckle which ensures easy access when you need it. Carry it by its top handle or wear it crossbody-style using its adjustable and detachable leather strap.
Everything about Cambridge Satchel’s array of designs bears its tagline in mind: ‘The Cutting Edge of British Tradition’, with each piece encapsulating craftsmanship and age-old tradition while remaining anchored in the present with revitalised designs and eccentric, bold, and daring accents.
Each Cambridge Satchel Company bag is actually hand-crafted at its workshop in the heart of England, and it takes sustainability pretty seriously with each piece, ensuring they’re made with quality that actually lasts.
In fact, many customers even hand theirs down through generations.
