Stud-U-Like

Brad. Mick. Sean. Daniel (as in Radcliffe, but Craig could apply).

You’d never say no to a nice stud.

And there are plenty of them to be had on Be&D’s bags. Founded in a Brooklyn loft in 2004, the label has been a big hit across the pond. Each style is named after an iconic female pin-up: the Ava Citi is a day bag in soft deerskin, while the Crawford (one assumes it’s Joan rather than Cindy, but most wouldn’t mind either) comes in leather or natural python. And then there’s the Garbo — swamped in shiny, look-at-me studs on plum/chocolate or black/cognac leather.

Unlike some other studs, these will ensure you get plenty of attention. Arm candy without the baggage, if you will.

Take one home and get all the benefits of a nice package — without relinquishing your beauty sleep.


Available at Harvey Nichols, 109-125 Knightsbridge, SW1 (020 7235 5000) or online at beandd.com.
