Plaid and tartan are having a revival at the moment, and we are going to see much, much more of it come autumn/winter...

Unfortunately, I've never been big on tartan so this trend will be one I bypass, even if it does make me kind of sad that I'm not going to be part of it. However, not being one to give up so easily when it comes to spending money on as many clothes as possible, I had a thought: I might be able to get on board with thing in the form of a tartan bag.

This Vivienne Westwood Red Label one is intriguing, and can you imagine it with a little black dress? ('Cause that's how I'm picturing it.) The shape is elegant yet fashion-forward. And what's more, it's pink! I might not be a hopeless case yet. It's £405 from Net-a-Porter.
