    You know a bag is going to be a hit when it’s already graced the arms of Olivia Palermo already. Even more so if it’s high street, therefore won’t cost your entire month’s salary in one go.

    Enter the Kensington cross body, £130, courtesy of Kurt Geiger. In a bright red shade with a British heritage print on it, and embellished with bows, it’s the perfect accessory to elevate your look.

    As well as being spotted on Miss P. it’s also been a hit with influencers like Doina Ciobanu, Alex from the Frugality.

    Kurt Geiger told us, ‘The red Kensington has been the bestselling bag of all time for us, with 75% of stock sold within 8 days across e-commerce and key stores nationwide.’

    In fact, it was so popular that when it sold out, it had a waiting list of 680. Pretty impressive considering it’s usually the likes of Hermes Birkin bags that have a waiting list. If you’ve fallen in love with the bag as well, despair not. It’s availably again at Kurt Geiger, both in red and cream.
