Now spring has - er - stirred from its slumber and started to gradually uncoil, it's time to jettison those dark, serious accessories and celebrate the lightness and brightness we're all hoping for. That includes your purse, and Dorothy Perkins is, as ever, a great place for finding affordable accessories to match your mood.
The current range of long, padded pursed (with trendy tassel) are an ideal wardrobe-freshener, available in such lovely pastel shades as mint and pale mink.
