Handbag of the week: APC

By Jemma Tibbals

Chain strap bag, £165 (approx.) at APC 

There's a cool breeze blowing in from the south east with the arrival of French brand APC's spring summer 08 line.  

  Alexa Chung wearing APCThe label's young at heart ethos has attracted Alexa Chung's eager eye.  She of Popworld fame, and the owner of by far the coolest style in the whole of London town, loves the brand's continental flavour and is regularly ‘papped' wearing it.  

  Looks from APC SS08Simple staples are the key to this brand, with striped tees and pretty pinafores at the forefront.  The shades of spring seen throughout the collection are especially enticing us at the moment, and this unfussy yellow bag is definitely on our wish list. 

The plastic Chanel-style chain (these French brands have got to stick together!) brings a fun twist while the double flaps offer two separate sections for added room. This is a bag that will most definitely double your Ooh la la credentials over night.
