The Festive Season Calls For These Shiny Party Bags

As hard as we may try, all of us have a soft spot for all things shimmery – even if you’re a self-proclaimed minimalists. Perhaps it’s something to do with the mesmerising way light reflects off sequins or how brilliantly a crystal-covered bag shines that makes us all giddy with joy.

With the festive season hot on its heels and social events filling up calendars, there’s no better time to give the party section of our wardrobe a refresher. Below, a selection of the finest soiree-ready bags that are a whole party in and of itself.
