Zip & Pocket Purses





How many of us take our worldly possessions out with us on an evening out...? Every single debit, credit card, store cards, the invaluable boots advantage cards, nectar cards, oh and the blockbuster video card! If we had our bag pinched we would have to spend hours ringing round cancelling cards etc...

So we suggest the next time you go out, swap your wallet for one of our pocket purses, either the Cheet twinkly coin purses, which will hold your loose change and notes, or perhaps buy a Lucy J zip purse which you can hold the one vital card you need and at £20.00 won't break the bank.

We have added some new zip purses to the collection, so check out the new arrivals page as well whilst having a browse online.

The search continues...


The search for new designers to add to The Bag Boutique is never ending, as such we attended the Top Drawer trade show in London on Monday and found a great range of UK handbag designers all of which we would love to showcase. But as budget dictates..., we shall slowly be adding new designers over the coming months, gorgeous new spring/summer collections for 2007 were on display and as ever it was extremely hard to decide what to order.

With new designers such as Tamara Fogle, Carla Beeby, Mimi, Little Black Duck all in the pipe line, make sure you continue checking back to The Bag Boutique as there will be some great new collections coming our way. Additional collections from existing designers such as Makki and Lucy J will be hitting the web in March, so watch this space for more news...!

"I’m Celibate - Get Me Out of Here!"

Well, that got your attention!

Whilst updating my profile, I added info on my favourite book, and I thought I better post it as well to make sure you read it!

A must have read for the bus, tube, train journey to and from work, you are guaranteed to laugh out loud.. what a great start to the day! Read below the press release on the book and go out and buy it!

"I’m Celibate - Get Me Out of Here!" by Jo Elliott

A mystery ad agency worker is behind this new book, which takes readers on a roller coaster ride through the sometimes seedy world of online dating.
"I’m Celibate - Get Me Out of Here!" is the true-life story of "Jo Elliot" - the pen name of a solvent, successful and single thirty-something from London.

In this contemporary memoir, Jo Elliott gives a frank, feisty and laugh out loud account of how she has spent the last few years looking for Mr Right through online dating.

In a first of its kind publication in the UK, Jo (aka Jo-to-Go) tells it like it is - and it ain’t pretty! From dates whose idea of a ‘nice to meet you’ gift is a bag of sex toys and porn videos, to vertically challenged trust-fund bad boys, serial womanisers and ageing lotharios - all presenting themselves in cyberspace as early 30s, affluent catches!

"I’m Celibate - Get Me Out of Here!" is an unputdownable real life romp through Jo’s dates, mates and love-life disasters, brought cringingly to life through the actual emails, dating profiles and accounts of her encounters. Join Jo and her would-be suitors in a whistle stop tour of London’s eateries, bars and clubs, recoil in horror at her experience of speed-dating, balk at the audacity of the date who got married, but kept trying to come back for more Jo-to-Go, experience the frustration-inducing Northern Line and the restorative properties of Mario’s bacon sarnies…and if you can cope with the excitement, join Jo and Ducati-Bloke at the Travelodge, Birmingham…


With online dating back in the news (Joan Rivers joins match.com, Declan Donnelly reportedly says he may look for love online) "I’m Celibate - Get Me Out of Here!" is set to be the must-read book of the summer. Effortlessly capturing society’s obsession with everything ‘e’ and the eternal quest for true love and romance, Jo’s sassy, up-to-the-minute girl-about-town style will fascinate and enthral readers of all ages.
