It was a very interesting debate about whether it was ‘right’ for westerners to wear them as a fashion statement given their historical/cutural meaning. It’s well worth a read if you have 5 mins to spare. Well, anyway, I never bought one and I haven’t seen them about much at all (a ton of other styles have popped up in their place…Tolani, Sir Alistair Rai, Love Quotes etc) until just this week when I saw this picture of Gossip Girl’s Taylor Momsen sporting a hot pink one! Whether it’s right or wrong, Taylor undoubtedly looks cute in hers…makes me want one all over again.

River Island has a few on offer but they all look too ‘new’, plus I keep seeing girls wandering down the street wearing them so they’re hardly unique. Out shopping in London today I spotted this gorgeous buttery soft vintage style bag by Topshop Boutique – available for £50 online. The stock photo does it absolutely zero justice, i’m thinking as I stare at it just now hanging in my closet. £50 seems a complete bargain considering i’m positive this will be one buy i’ll still be toting around in 5 years, or 10 years…or even 20 years time!
