Souvenir from London

I was looking for a new wallet since aaaaages and ages and saved up some money for it, because I only had a completely wrecked and old one for quite some time, but I wanted a qualitative, timeless and practical one and never seemed to find the perfect one. On Tuesday when I was waiting for my flight at London Heathrow I still had a lot of time so I wandered around some stores. When I walked into the Mulberry store it happened: I saw the wallet I was waiting for: black, big enough to fit all of my cards and even my phone in it, it can be used as a clutch bag and is simple, but still completely and utterly beautiful. It's from the SS 12 collection which had just hit stores a few days ago. When the Sales Assistant took it out of the vitrine and I held it in my hands I just knew that I had to have it. Those cute ruffles at the edge and around the trademark Mulberry buckle are just too cute for words ♥ And the name is "Cookie" - how sweet ist that? :)
What made my purchase even better: the super cute bag which contained a box for the wallet, six postcards with the pictures from the SS lookbook with Frida and Lindsey on them, a booklet with pictures of the SS pieces and super cute stickers - and that I saved 50 Pounds because I bought it in the duty-free area. 
Weird how happy shopping can make me sometimes :) Best souvenir ever!

@Anonymous: Ja,ich habe 50 Pfund gespart wegen Duty-Free also hat es 250 Pfund gekostet :) Steht auch im Text :) Ich habe auch schon länger gespart weil ich ein qualitatives, zeitloses Portmonee wollte, dieses kann ich ja theorethisch mein ganzes Leben benutzen, also war es mir das auf jeden Fall wert :)
