Meghan Markle's favourite handbag brand is giving you exclusive early access to its sale
One of Meghan Markle's favourite designer handbags is about to be reduced in the Black Friday sale, and we've nabbed an exclusive early access to the sale for you.
Luxury London label DeMellier, which hardly ever does discounts, will be offering an exceptional 20% off site-wide, valid on both the bags and cashmere collections, from Monday 22nd to Monday 30th November.
However, Marie Claire readers can exclusively get the discount as early as Friday 19th November. All you need to do is enter the code MCEARLY20 at checkout and you'll instantly get 20% off.
The code will be valid until EOP Sunday 21st November, at which point it will be replaced by another code for the official Black Friday sale.
So if you want to nab Meghan's favourite handbag, the Mini Venice below, you've only got a few days to wait. She owns it in the forest grain colour, though it is available in 9 other hues, from cream to burgundy.
DeMellier Mini Venice Bag, Was £295, Will be £236 with the discount
A press favourite, the Mini Venice is as cute as it is practical. Crafted in luxurious cowhide leather, this little gem is lightweight, making it perfect for long days out. Choose to wear it over the shoulder, cross-body or by its ladylike handle.
Meghan wore the bag on a number of occasions, including a visit to Cardiff with Prince Harry in 2018. And she isn't the only royal fan either, as Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall has also worn the exact same style, though in different colours, on numerous occasions.
Other Royals including Pippa Middleton and Princess Beatrice are fans of the brand and have been spotted wearing past season designs, so it definitely has the royal seal of approval.

We know the Duchess of Sussex is also a fan of sustainable fashion, and DeMellier is produced ethically and sustainably. The leather is sourced from a leading Italian tannery awarded Gold rating by the European Leather Group and the canvas is made in Spain of organic cotton.
The bags are handcrafted in DeMellier’s trusted family-owned factory in the South of Spain. Their A Bag, A Life program means that for every bag purchased, a donation is made to SOS Children's Villages—a charity that funds vaccines and medical treatments for children in over 136 countries.
