Mulberry
Jaywalking in Style
May 21st
There are only a couple of gifted people who can casually cross the street looking like a perfect fashion editorial. Case in point, let’s take a look at this picture.
Socialite and fashionista Olivia Palermo turned the street into a runway, armed with Gucci heels and a Mulberry Tillie. The bag, which sells for around $1,400, has some elements of the very popular Alexa, and comes in different colors and textures. It is part of the brand’s new collection for this season and is quickly gaining popularity in the social circle. It seems to be able to stop traffic too. Or maybe that’s just Olivia.
An Underpriced Beauty

The Mulberry Bayswater has often been confused with the Alexa. These two bags have a somewhat similar look but differences will become obvious upon closer inspection.
The Bayswater is more reminiscent of the Birkin, hence all the debate about the bag being a “copy”. Like the Alexa, it features the iconic postman’s lock but it’s missing the signature belt buckle details and the detachable cross-body strap.
Perfect Muse for the Perfect Bag

Such prestige comes with having an “It” bag named after you. British “It” girl Alexa Chung received major props and became the muse for the Mulberry Alexa, an uber-stylish satchel that features a casual chic style. Acting as model/muse/endorser, the young fashion icon has been seen everywhere with the bag. I don’t mind really, both of them are beyond beautiful.
Emma Hill, creative director of the brand, was inspired when she saw Alexa carrying a Mulberry men’s briefcase and decided to create an updated version of the vintage bag. The Mulberry Alexa received major success and has become the brand’s top-selling model to now.
