I wrote about my Lush bags before here. Today I am posting some more photographs of my Lush version of the Rainbow Spy one. I really wanted a Fendi Rainbow Spy but when I had save enough money, they no longer made them and they are really hard to find.

The sequins are a bit blingy but I usually wear sober black so I can carry off a bit of sparkle. I am, at some stage, going to replace the sequins with Xhosa beadwork which will be more subtle and closer to my roots.
