Two of the Princess of Wales’s favorite bag brands – Aspinal of London and Strathberry – have launched their Black Friday sales early, offering the perfect opportunity to add a touch of fabulous style to your wardrobe.
From elegant top-handle designs to stylish crossbody bags, these timeless pieces make ideal gifts; Whether you’re shopping for a loved one or treating yourself to a well-deserved upgrade.
Here are my top royal-inspired picks to see you through the festive season and beyond.
London Aspinal
Aspinal of London’s Black Friday sale We’re seeing some of their most popular designs scaled down by up to 50 percent.
Long synonymous with sophistication, Aspinal is a royal favourite; It is worn by the Princess of Wales, Zara Tindall, Princess Beatrice and Queen Camilla.
Like Princess Kate, I’ve been a devoted fan of Midi Mayfair for years (she first carried it back in 2018). Its vintage-inspired shape adds instant elegance to any outfit, and the cherry ombre version is currently at the top of my wish list.
Red acts as a neutral color; It works with everything from day to night, and the stylish alligator finish beautifully showcases Aspinal’s craftsmanship.
Equally elegant is the Mayfair Clutch in champagne gold, bringing a subtle sparkle and luxurious look that’s perfect for the party season.
Aspinal didn’t forget her accessories either. Classic card holders and wallets are also included in the sale, making thoughtful gifts this Christmas.
Strawberry
Edinburgh-based label Strathberry has also launched its early Black Friday offers, with up to 30 per cent off some of its most iconic designs.
Loved by the Princess of Wales, the Duchess of Edinburgh, the Duchess of Sussex, Zara Tindall and Princess Beatrice, Strathberry combines Scottish heritage with understated luxury.
Princess Kate’s much-loved Mosaic Nano is part of the sale; Available in elegant shades like royal blue, oxblood crocodile and khaki. She memorably carried the vanilla version at the 2023 Christmas carol ceremony, complementing her monochrome ensemble perfectly.
This season I’ve had my eye on the black crocodile East/West bag, a sleek, structured design carried by Meghan Markle and Zara Tindall. With its elegant texture and minimalist silhouette, it’s the ideal statement piece for the festive season.
Meghan also opted for Strathberry’s roomier styles, like the Midi Tote, complete with the brand’s signature gold bullion closure. Select shades like tan, oxblood croc and khaki are now part of the sale lineup.
Other sought-after pieces include the Drawstring Crossbody in oat, the Suede Tote in chocolate brown, and the Halo Shoulder Bag in black; These are all elegant additions to any bag lover’s collection.
