It Won't Be Long Now...
Published on Wednesday 9th April 2008
So it's nearly that blissful time when we get to go on holiday, lie on the beach and do nothing... (ahhhh let's just bask in that thought for a mini escapist moment).
Thank god for summer holidays otherwise I'm sure we'd all go slowly mad. It’s what we all live for.
No decisions apart from what factor sun lotion to lather ourselves in and whether or not to have that lunchtime ice-cream.
 Now I don’t know about you, but I always have the same dilemma - whether or not to take a handbag to the beach. The two of them just don’t seem to go together do they?
Whatever you take looks bulky and out of place. I usually just end up chucking some change into the inside zip of my beach bag.
But recently I’ve come up with another, more funky alternative - at Anchka.com they have a fantastic range of Capri pouches in good-enough-to-eat colours.
They’re small and cute and they won't look cumbersome with your bikini and, made from buttery soft leather, will look oh so stylish clutched in sun-tanned hands at the beach bar.
Hurrah, my beach/handbag dilemma is finally resolved. Now that’s too fan-TAN-stic for words.
