box-bag.jpgA great mock-croc bag is a good thing to find, and we're particularly keen on this one from Max C, which is currently on sale. Taking clear inspiration from Chloe's 'Elsie' range, the bag has strong vintage leanings and a floral-effect twist lock clasp in shiny gold-hued metal. The bag is made up in a boxy style with detachable straps.

This would be a great buy for anyone who's looking for a quirky, catwalk-inspired evening bag without spending too much on an occasional item. We think it's a really strong high street take on a look we love, and coming from a lesser-known label, will not be too ubiquitous or samey.
