Who says you need a little black bag to go with everything? Boasting bright hues and downright creative flair, Shanghai-based handbags line Designed by Mary H churns out whimsical, expressive totes sure to give people something to gossip about. Crafted locally by Swedish designer Mary Hunyh – who launched the brand in 2011 - the timeless beauties, made of cowhide leather or ultra soft lambskin, are sturdy, oh-so pretty and extremely versatile: each design can be worn three ways according to the different strap lengths. The idea is to complement individual styles with bags that can morph for every occasion. We must say, Hunyh does this very well: each item shifts effortlessly from day to night, showing a fashion stamina most carriers only dream of. Besides bags, the label also stocks unisex wallets, dapper belt, travel bags and pen cases. Prices range RMB200-1,900.
