Handbag of the Week: Heart box clutch from River Island

We've featured heart-shaped handbags here before, but what can we say: it would appear that we like them! And it would appear that we like them enough to make one of them our Handbag of the Week. Ah well, no point fighting it…
The bag in question is from River Island, and will cost you £21.99. Has it stolen your heart, though? (Sorry.)
Do you remember the “Something stupid” Robbie-video with Nicole Kidman? In this video they celebrate christmas together and she gets a similiar bag as gift from him. I just love it!
I would like it if it weren’t trendy right now. Instead of associating this cool bag with an imaginative and flattering outfit, I’m only seeing some 14 year-old skinny-jeans-clad hipsters wearing this. No, thanks.
Does the world not have enough other handbags to be featured?
Oh, and by the way, my friends and I carried cheap versions of these for our pretend plastic make up and pretend wallets, back when we were – oh I duno – like EIGHT.
