A beautifully crafted handbag is one of the hardest-working pieces in any wardrobe. The right design has the power to elevate even the simplest outfit, taking you effortlessly from the office to weddings, race days and everything in between. If you’re looking to invest in a timeless accessory you’ll reach for season after season, Princess Catherine’s recent top handle is just what you need.
Over the weekend, the Princess of Wales was spotted carrying Tusting’s elegant Mini Holly handbag at Wimbledon, once again championing the British family-run leather goods atelier. It’s far from the first time Catherine, 434, has reached for the design either, having carried it on numerous occasions since 2021 – proof that a truly well-made handbag never goes out of style.
Top-handle handbags continue to dominate this season, and it’s easy to see why the royal keeps returning to them.
Their structured silhouette instantly adds an elegant, polished finish to any look, whether you’re styling a floaty midi dress for a wedding, crisp tailoring for work or your favourite linen separates on a sunny afternoon.
Crafted from beautifully smooth leather in a timeless stone hue, the dainty design fits all of your essentials and perfectly embodies Tusting’s signature understated elegance. The structured silhouette is elevated by refined gold-tone hardware, while the classic top handle and detachable shoulder strap offer versatility for everyday wear.
Considering Catherine has been carrying the same bag for more than four years, it’s safe to say this is one investment piece you’ll never regret.
