Hot Pink Velvet Daisy Coin Purse

his one is not for shrinking violets.

The hot pink velvet is gloriously, unapologetically bright — the sort of colour that catches your eye from across the room and makes no attempt whatsoever to blend in. Against it, a scattering of simple daisies creates a fabulous contrast and gives the purse just a hint of 1970s flower-power nostalgia.

Look more closely and the daisies are rather more interesting than they first appear. Their pale petals seem to change depending on the light and the person looking at them — sometimes appearing crisp white, sometimes with the palest hint of icy blue. Either way, they stand out beautifully against that intense pink background. Roughly textured yellow centres cleverly recreate the slightly bobbly centre of a real daisy, while the simple flower heads add to the purse's wonderfully retro feel.

But there is no getting away from the real star here: that pink. Rich, vibrant and wonderfully exuberant, it turns a small practical purse into something with real presence. Even tucked inside a handbag, this isn't an accessory that's going to disappear quietly amongst everything else.

At 12.5 × 9.5cm, there's room for loose change, a few essential cards and other small necessities, while the compact size makes it easy to slip into a pocket, handbag or smaller evening bag.

For someone who loves bright colours, dresses with confidence or simply believes everyday accessories needn't be sensible and subdued, this little purse should feel very much at home. A small gift for a colourful personality — or a perfectly good excuse to buy yourself something outrageously pink.
