Last week I got very excited about the arrival of Mulberry, in particular their Alexa bag, to Brown Thomas. However with price tags ranging from €500 to €2,000 realistically they’re out of the reach for most of us mere mortals. Luckily the highstreet is on hand to fill the gap. Here are some of my favourites, images and prices after the cut

1. Ted Baker Flynt Metallic Snake Effect Tote €345
2. Tesco F&F weave and stud detail clutch €9
3. Ted Baker Violete Large Clutch Bag €149
4. Tesco F&F large snake studded tassel tote bag €17
5. Topshop Ruche Top Soft Bag Nude €42
6. Awear Multi striped bag €30
7. Topshop Leather Mixed Stud Flap Bag €104
8. Penneys Snakeskin cross body bag €7
9. Awear Tan fringe bag €25
