I don't like extremely "summery" clothes. Probably fortunate in my current position, given that summer is not where London shines, anyway. Caught between my dislike for the floral / multi-colorful and my need to keep from exposing much skin as the temps linger in tepid territory, my outfit options need a little sump'n sump'n to lighten the mood and celebrate the sunshine and bees, mojitos and grill-outs, the open skies and the freedom of the summer months. Here, that something is as simple as a white, perforated leather bag—a color and a texture that pulls almost anything together, clean and crisp.
