Handbag of the Week: Chloe’s large Paddington tote

If I was ever going to blow more than my monthly mortgage repayment on a designer handbag, the Chloe Paddington is the handbag I’d choose. Or maybe the Balenciaga Motorcyle bag. Or… OK, let’s leave that for the moment, and just feast our eyes on the beauty that is the large Paddington tote. The soft, supple leather. The cute padlock with its little leather strap. The buckles. The big, roomy shape that takes the standard Paddington shape and makes it big enough to use as a carry-on or overnight bag. The "best part of £1000 price tag". Well, OK, maybe not that bit. Get it at Net-a-Porter.
