Mokki Mini in Textured Candied Chestnut

offers the most persuasive combination of character and usefulness. Deep Blue is rich without being precious, and the divided body gives the design a practical reason to accompany someone through a full day. The\n\nis an excellent alternative for a more adventurous colour choice, though it will ask more of the clothes worn beside it. A strong green bag is never truly anonymous, however good its compartments. This is where Polène makes its clearest case. Winter does not call for a special category of handbag so much as a bag that works with the heavier, more demanding clothes people wear at that time of year. The full-size Mokki carries that argument better than a tiny occasion piece. It offers considered organisation without looking like luggage, while colour supplies the pleasure that good accessories ought to bring.
