Orla Kiely FW17 Mainline: Birdie Applique Nylon

I think this design is just too cute! The bird's wings and handles are made of leather, while the rest of the bag is nylon twill.

Orla Kiely FW17 Mainline: Flower Applique in Conker, Light Gold, and Multi

With each style, I usually have a favorite colorway in mind, but I actually quite like all the colors of the Flower Appliqué bags this season. The Multi version of the Small Rosemary Bag has a lot of fun details, but I'm also loving the Light Gold Mini Box Bag.

Past season Appliqué bags have featured a vinyl body with leather appliqué accents (see Square Flower, Skipping Girls, and Applique Face). This season, however, the entire bag is 100% leather, which I'm quite pleased with, especially given the higher price points. Plus, I think leather gives these bags a better quality and durability.

Orla Kiely Pre-Fall 2017 Mainline: Applique Flower Leather

The Applique Flower Leather bags and accessories are my favorites from the Pre-Fall 2017 line. I love all the colorways, and the tortoiseshell handles and chain detailing on the bags are a nice touch.

Card Holder in Nutmeg, Orange, and Pink
$68
I think these card holders are so cute, but I'm just not sure how secure they'd be. I'd worry that my cards would fall out as the leather stretches out over time. Does anyone have any experience with these card holders? I love the design, but just wish there was some kind of snap or zipper closure to keep the cards in place.

Key Ring in Nutmeg, Orange, and Pink
£45
I absolutely love these key rings - I was lucky enough to be able to collect all three colorways from the SS17 collection, so I certainly don't need anymore, but they are just so cute and make great bag charms.
