As any fashion lover knows, an accessory can really complete your outfit. Whether it’s a statement piece of jewellery or a great pair of shoes, the right accessories can turn even the most basic outfits into something special.
One of the easiest – and most practical – ways to give your outfit a quick stylish update is with a handbag, and a colourful, fun and quirky bag will instantly take your look from boring to bold in seconds. The go-to brand for countless celebs on the lookout for kitsch bags is Lulu Guiness, which has been a top pick for everyone from Kate Middleton to Louise Thompson.

The bags have recently been given a spotlight at Wimbledon, where countless famous faces were snapped carrying the playful designs. From Angellica Bell’s red phone box bag to Dawn O’Porter’s greenhouse shoulder bag, Lulu Guinness’ designs were spotted all over courtside.
And now you can get your hands on your very own version for less, because the brand has launched a huge summer sale with up to 70% off. The discount means you can save almost £100 on plenty of the designs carried by celebs at the event, with some of our favourites still in stock - plus the code EXTRA15 will bag you an additional 15% discount.
Angellica Bell’s phonebox bagAngellica Bell showed up at Wimbledon on two different days carrying the Lulu Red Lulu Calling Phonebox Clutch, which was the perfect British-inspired addition to her courtside outfit. The bag is usually priced at £345, but is now on sale for £241, saving you more than £100 on the satin clutch bag.
Dawn O’Porter’s greenhouse bagDawn O'Porter paired her green house-shaped shoulder bag with a co-ordinating pink and green ensemble at the event, and it was the perfect addition to her colourful outfit. Although Dawn’s exact bag is now sold out, you can pick up this Sea Blue No.12 Portobello House Handbag for £249, rather than £345 in the Lulu Guinness sale.
Angela Scanlon’s birds nest bag
The perfect example of how a quirky accessory can elevate your look, Angela Scanlon paired her simple co-ord with the playful Bird Nest Bag, taking it from simple to showstopper in a matter of seconds. The bag is made from rattan, twigs and vines with a hidden egg in the bottom, and although it’s usually priced at £345, but you can now get your hands on it for £241.
Laura Whitmore’s bird cage bagKeeping with the avian theme, Laura Whitmore was spotted carrying the Black Birdcage Collectible Clutch Bag to Wimbledon. Laura opted for the black version, although the bag also comes in a pastel blue shade, and is now £241 down from £345.
Although the Lulu Guinness bags have become the go-to for whimsical, quirky accessories, there are also other brands offering similar playful picks. At The Cambridge Satchel Company you can pick up The Heart Bag for £225, whilst the Meri Meri Pink & Ivory Striped Cake Bag might have been designed as a child’s bag, but there’s no reason it wouldn’t make the perfect cute clutch.
