This lot aren’t just bang on Spring/Summer 2015’s novelty bag trend. They’re great for your Chinese New Year visiting rounds too – as conversation pieces, and to tote around those oranges and red packets. Here’s our tongue-in-cheek CNY guide to how much they’ll fit.
Charlotte Olympia’s “takeout box”: Two kumquats and a whole stack of red packets.
Up-and-coming Italian bag designer Paula Cademartori’s groovy tote: All the oranges you’ll need for the whole festive period.
For red packets and blackjack winnings only – this mini tote was practically made for the CNY period.
Fendi’s Micro Baguette – daily red packet takings only please.
Expect everyone to ask if you can carry their oranges too.
The colour block clutch clearly fits only red packets. Add the Doraemon key chain to reel in the good luck (and more red packets).
Just two oranges, red packets and necessities – a ladylike bag like this Delvaux top handle is usually a good way of saying “I don’t carry much”.
A fun chewing gum minaudiere shows off your young side (and red packet eligibility). Also the only legal gum you can bring around.
Gardening for oranges?
This banana-embroidered bag ain’t going to fit no oranges.
Enough oranges (and hopefully red packets too) to last you a month. Plus a mahjong set as well.
Red packets in the external compartment of this rainbow-hued Valentino backpack, four oranges inside – the older folks will think you’re so cute.
Exactly what you need: Two oranges and some spare space for the red packet moolah.
