THE SIMPLE SHOPPER
J by Jasper Conran colour block shopper, £39, debenhams.com
L: 36cm, H: 30cm, D: 8.5cm
This stylish shopper is a great bag at a good price. it fits comfortably under the arm and features three accessible compartments and a zipped pocket to keep small objects safely together.
There’s also a small pouch at the front — perfect for a slim object such as your Kindle — which is kept safe by an over-the-top fastening. it easily carries all our of items but those slim straps do become uncomfortable when it’s full.
STYLE RATING: 7/ 10 The polyester lining isn’t luxurious, and the internal zips are flimsy.
PRACTICAL RATING: 8/10 Those pouches and pockets are great.
COMFORT RATING: 7/10 The straps will dig in to your shoulders.
