ClaireaBella: a new bag for the New Year

The New Year can be a great time to refresh your wardrobe. You can do this with both clothing and accessories. A hit new addition to mine for 2014 is this beautiful ClaireaBella bag from ToxicFox.

I remember people rushing to buy one of these bags when each limited run was realised with many people left without one. Thankfully these days it’s a little easier to get your hands on your own ClaireaBella. Aside from the bags, there’s a whole host of items to choose from including phone cases, canvas bags, satchels, wine glasses and more. While many of these items are now professionally printed to order, the original jute bags are still hand painted by a specially trained artist when the order is received. This means you can still get a totally unique jute bag!

Personalised jute bags

The Jute bags, as with all the other items, come with a choice of features to personalise your Claireabella character including hair style and colour, outfit, eye colour and skin tone. I decided to go with the following options for my bag:

Hair Style: Long
Hair Colour: Dark Brown
Outfit: Rock Chick
Eye Colour: Blue
Skin Tone: Fair

Now for the practicalities. The jute bag itself is really strong. Over the festive period I’ve been using it to cart around all sorts of presents and parcels and it’s still looking in tip top condition. I’ve even had to dart through the rain with it. While I wouldn’t subject it to too much water, it has stood up to the unplanned test of making it into the dry when I got caught out in one of the sudden downpours we have had of late.

Once your personalised beautiful ClaireaBella is finished, the last special touches are added to the bag. These include a sprinkle of glitter, the name of your choice, a ClaireaBella Originals tag on the bottom, a bow on the handle and the new addition of “Yes it’s a ClaireaBella!” painted onto the reverse so everyone knows you really are sporting the real thing.

Pricing

ClaireaBella Classic jute bags are available in two sizes. A medium bag costs £34.99 and large is available for £39.99. They can be bought along with all the other pieces in the ClaireaBella range from ToxicFox.

What sort of ClaireaBella would you go for? Could you see one being added to your wardrobe for 2014?
