Tell me I’m not the only one who can never find the perfect everyday bag? My tastes run towards maximalism (a big part of the problem), so I accumulate a hodgepodge of statement styles that you’d probably call ‘party bags’, but when it comes to an everyday failsafe, my collection is lacking.
Enter: Strathberry, a luxury British label that seemingly everyone already knows about except me. It launched in 2013 and quickly became a go-to with celebrities and Royals. Meghan Markle wore the label’s Tri-Colour Midi tote, and it promptly sold out in 11 minutes flat.
More recently, the enviably cool Iris Law styled one of the ‘90s-style silhouettes with sharp tailoring and pointed pumps while out in New York. Anna Kendrick worked the oxblood Nano into a full tonal look when promoting Woman of The Hour, and Jennifer Lopez juxtaposed some seriously oversized shirting with the aptly named Nano Tote.
It’s not hard to see why the brand has become such a firm favourite; the timeless silhouettes mix heritage European craftsmanship (every style is crafted in the Spanish atelier) with contemporary design and intricate attention to detail, with each design taking at least 20 hours to handcraft. Also, the leathers, which primarily come from tanneries in Spain and Italy, are audited by the Leather Working Group to ensure environmental best practices.
What’s more, as of today, some of the label’s most coveted styles, such as the best-selling Charlotte Drawstring, and silhouettes from the Mosaic collection, are up to 30% off for a limited time online and in-store.

Kelly Rutherford has this exact silhouette in the tan colourway, so you know it’s an indelibly chic investment. It draws influence—and its name—from Scottish artists working with mosaics, and is a scaled-down version of Strathberry’s beloved best-seller.
Another celebrity-approved style (Jennifer Lopez has the vanilla version ), this Oxblood Nanno Tote is crafted from glossy croc-embossed leather and suspended from a detachable gold-tone chain.
The Frame Clutch puts a fresh spin on Strathberry’s signature Music Bar, transforming it into a sleek, curved top-handle design. It’s sized to hold only the essentials, and has a detachable chain strap, so it easily converts from clutch to shoulder or crossbody.
Inspired by the fluid lines of sculpture, the Osette reinvents the classic bucket bag with softly handcrafted folded leather. It has a refined drawstring closure and the iconic Music Bar fastening.
Drawing inspiration from the vintage music folio behind Strathberry’s signature Music Bar, the Melody Tote is designed to be both spacious and practical. Crafted in embossed leather, the floating Music Bar lends a relaxed yet polished feel, while a detachable zip pouch keeps valuables secure for easy, everyday wear.
Designed to move with you, the Halo’s half-moon silhouette shifts seamlessly from day to night. Its soft, sculpted shape sits comfortably against the body, while the reimagined Music Bar forms a continuous circle—a subtle halo symbolising harmony and unity.
