Quirkybags

Quirkybags offers stylish bags for travel, work and play. Functional and, as the name says, quirky, this is the place to come for distinctive bags. This wonderful site has bags for all occasions: beach, bike, bottles, handbags, kids bags, laptop bags, picnic bags, travel bags and yoga bags and that is to name a few.

They stock some great designers including: Allerhand, Breathe, Built NY, Oilily, Onya, Optima and Tintamer.

Quirkybags has a campaign to 'kill the carrier bag' and sells a brilliant range of re-useable shoppers and weigh bags for loose fruit and veg. The Day 172 beach bag is a marvel, with compartments for your parasol, postcards and even a ball plus plenty of room for towels, sun cream and all the other paraphernalia, great value at £20.

For al fresco dining the picnic cooler bags and baskets are fabulous, especially the Bordeaux basket complete with hand painted china plates. To carry your wine the bottle totes made from protective neoprene are stylish and handy to carry, attachable to a bag strap or belt if you have your hands full. The Sigg Kidz snack bags are superb for little ones' packed lunches and come in eye-catching designs.

For work, Built NY neoprene laptop sleeves are chic and cushion and protect your laptop. The cyclobags are essential for two-wheeled commuters, able to carry a laptop and documents and the multi-tasking design can attach to a bike or be carried as a handbag, shoulder bag or backpack,.

With a number of luggage for weekends, every occasion has been covered.

Quirkybags also sell brollies, washable handbag liners (to organise and protect your designer number) and an extremely useful handbag light, which means no more rummaging for keys on a dark doorstep!
