That bag looks like it was made for you. It's gorgeous and you wear it well! I'm gobsmacked by how much it can accommodate. Your books and buns afternoon looks just divine. We enjoyed a real blizzard here on Monday and into Tuesday. It was so beautiful during the day. I curled up with "Wintering" and just relished the quiet beauty of it all.
Hello Miranda! I really enjoyed the “unboxing” today! What a gorgeous leather handbag you chose and I enjoyed seeing all the things that you like to carry along with you...I wanted to let you know about an accessory that I’ve been loving for carrying books with me in my bag. It’s from a company in the states called bookbeau. They make these beautifully padded zippered sleeves that protect your book from becoming damaged while it’s in your bag or purse. I just love them and have several of their most popular designs. Please give them a look when you can. They even carry some waterproof ones as well! Love and hugs to you and your mum! I hope you were warm and cozy while reading and enjoying your cinnamon buns and hot chocolate!
I’m a handbag, shoes, and lipstick girl. My grandmother was such a total fashion and style person. She had four daughters, and together my mom and her sisters have seven daughters between them. Each of us has inherited some aspect of my grandmothers love for fashion. I got her love of bags and shoes, and this one is exactly my style. I’ve been needing a new purse, but I haven’t bought one in a very long time, because she passed away a few years ago. Anytime we went shopping or dressed up for something, we’d go and show her and since she’s gone it’s just hard to be excited about it anymore. But I love this bag, and she would have loved it too! Also, it’s so nice to see another woman carry multiple lipsticks. I do that too. 😊
You really do carry around a LOT of stuff in your bag! What a fab brand, I must have a look! Lovely to have a ‘books and buns’ afternoon. I have started having a ‘tea and journaling’ hour most days, after watching your vlog about your journals, which led me to look at lots of different journaling styles and journaling prompts. In the end, I just picked up a really nice A5 notebook and started writing. Really enjoying it, so thank you for that X
Oh I love that idea, Penny! Tea & journaling - how fab! In the end, I always just sit down and write too (I try for three pages a day). And it's always lovely to have an excuse for a new notebook!!
Another delicious vlog. I so enjoy spending time with you and your mother especially as you were discussing two of my favourite things - handbags and cosy reading afternoons. Thanks for sharing and I do think you new handbag is so just you. Looking forward to your next vlog.
Hi Miranda!!! What a lovely vlog!!!! I really love your italian handbag!!! It looks so elegant!!! Italian bags and shows are always a pleasure to have!!! Enjoy your cozy afternoon tea!! The Laura Purcell's book sounds so good....!!!!! XX📚🌻🌾🌸🌷
I carry as much as you and toys for my grandson in my bag. When I try to downsize the contents, I begin readding everything again fairly quickly. Ah, the universality of ladies’ bags. Snowdrops and birds in your garden were lovely to see. Happy for you for new bag. Just perfect.
Oh I love a hanky! Ladies used to give them as a wee present but no more. My partner gave me some on my birthday and couldn’t understand why I was so excited
Hey Miranda, I love your new Handbag🥰 your old one is actually nice too, when Donna said she made those cinnamon rolls I was floored , they look like they came straight out of a bakery box...The cozy chairs, books, and blankets totally Hygge oh and those cinnamon buns...Your videos are my Hygge moment after a very long day 🥰
Miranda, I'm sooo sooo happy that you chose my question and (this is really silly), but you made my day when you mentioned my name. lol! In my house, you're like a celebrity and my husband always says, "Oh, did Miranda recommend that book to you?" :D I loved your video - I knit on my warm sweater while watching! It was really fun to have a peek into your purse and find out what stylish and bookish items you carry around! Things we have in common: I also have horrible eyesight (-7.25 in each eye) so I can't see anything without them (or glasses) and I need to put in contacts before I even take a shower (which I'm sure you can sympathize with!). I also carry a pretty handkerchief, scarf, iPhone and little safety kit in my purse. Though I don't carry my fountain pen around (too scared it might leak!), I love your golden one. It's gorgeous! I own a Pilot silver and also a Lamy clear fountain pen which I use for journaling and writing letters. Although I don't usually wear lipstick, I wish it looked good on me and I adore seeing lipstick shades and cases. I love the look, feel and click of the case (I know, weird) and only wish that any lipstick looked good on me. I am a lip balm addict, though, and I carry at least 3 in my purse at all times. Plus, the ones on my makeup shelf. If only lip balms would come in a fancy lipstick case! lol. If you're looking for really nice lip balm, I love any by Boodha Organics, Hurraw or Meow Meow Tweet. I've got Margery Sharp's Rhododendron Pie book, too! As always, it's on my to-be-read list. I love the covers of all the Dean Street Press books so much. I love that you carry around your Persephone book list! If I lived in the UK, I would carry that around, too. I've never found any Persephone books to buy (either new or used) at any store in the US. Very sad. Your tray looked amazing - especially with the candlelight! My favorite of all time is cinnamon buns and hot chocolate - yummy! The birdsong and snowdrops made me long for spring. We have about 10" of snow and, though pretty, I still love warmer weather and flowers much more. In love with your dress and your mom's sweater, too. So many hugs to you and your mom!! xoxo :D P.S. Sorry for the super long comment!!! I always have so much to say - lol. It would be such a dream to have teat and chat about books with you and Donna :) P.P.S. Your Laura Purcell book reminded me that I have to buy it, too. I adore her other books!
Lovely, lovely bag Miranda. You are a girl after my own heart. I love a bag that can hold a lot as well. Surprised it could hold so much! Thank you for sharing with us. Always look forward to your vlogs. Blessings to you and your mum.
Hello Miranda and Donna. What a beautiful video this is. The droopy-headed snow drops are so beautiful. Nothing is blooming where I am yet. We have had snow every day for several days now and we are expected to get an Arctic blast with temperatures around 0 F. this weekend. Your new handbag is stunning. I love the color, style, and size. Unfortunately, because of my age and arthritis, I would not be able to carry such a large, heavy bag. I purchased a new leather bag about 6 months ago. While I normally get black, I chose gray this time. I love handbags, especially the very vintage-looking designs. However, my daughter laughs at me because I will carry the same bag for many years. It is something I just get attached to and don't bother to make a change. The sheer joy on your face at getting your new bag is so nice to see. Your true appreciation of such a lovely gift is evident. I love that you and your mom are having such a cozy winter day. You are both so blessed to have each other to share your days. Even though my daughter only lives across the road from me, I don't get to see her often as she has 3 children whom she homeschools and is quite busy with that. The book you are going to read, Miranda, sounds really good and I would love hearing your opinion of it. Hope to visit with you lovely ladies again very soon. Take care.....Crystal.
Thank you so much, Crystal! The snowdrops have been such a lovely surprise for us; we had no idea there would be so many growing! I hope you are keeping cosy in those temperatures. I always keep my bags for years and years too! Will definitely report back on the new Laura Purcell book xxx
Absolutely love your new bag Miranda and it is indeed « très élégant »!😉☺️ What a wonderful idea for a video and then the hygge afternoon was a dream! Everything I love, cosy fire, warm beverages, scrumptious pastries with wonderful company. Another lovely video, merci beaucoup.🙏🏻☺️✨
Gorgeous purse!😍You looked so happy when you was showing it. Interesting to know what each person can carry in their purses. I’m also libra♎️maybe that is the reason why I like so much your videos. That place where your mom and you live is so beautiful! We have right now a temperature of 81 degrees but I’m near to the coast area. In the mountains in cooler but still hot for you. I love those countries where you can appreciate every season.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Super cozy vlog Miranda! It’s no wonder I vibe with your channel, fellow Libra here😊. You are so blessed to be able to live amongst such beauty in nature. Your videos are restorative☺️. Those buns🤤🤤🤤 so lucky your mom bakes them they are truly the of the most comforting foods ever😄. I may try my hand with a gluten free version 🙄😆. I really appreciate your channel🤗. Have a great week!
Beautiful bag and the colour will be perfect for winter or summer. I can recommend the Clinique Lash Power mascara, it’s the only one I’ve found that doesn’t smudge on me! What a perfect way to spend an afternoon. The cinnamon buns looked absolutely delicious - would your mum share the recipe on a future tea reads? ❤️
OMG I have a Persephone list too 😍 Lovely video Miranda, and what a gorgeous bag. It’s summer here but your videos are reminding me of the pleasures of winter xx
I have serious bag envy, now, Miranda! You made a great choice, both in style and colour. I usually combine a smaller crossbody bag - for ease of getting in and out of tube stations, when that was a daily occurrence, not now! - and a leather tote bag for books, etc. One thing I've enjoyed about lockdown is getting out and about for walks and travelling light, just my phone and mask in my pocket. Also enjoying some cosy reading - thank you so much for introducing me to Miss Read, I remember her books being popular when I was a teenager but I wasn't particularly drawn to them, then, but I'm loving dipping into Village School, now. And we don't have any snow, sadly, but I'm enjoying it vicariously through your video and Nancy Spain's Death Goes on Skis. Have a lovely rest of the week!
Thank you so much, Lindsey - I’m so pleased with it! Can’t wait to take it out and about more! So glad you’re enjoying Miss Read; that’s lovely to hear 😊 xxx
Your new bag is nice Miranda, but (and I hope you don’t mind me saying) I like your old black leather bag better - it looks so soft. I like the purse-clip opening. Very unique. I hope you keep this, or maybe you could sell it second hand to a subscriber (it’s a bit of a trend having second hand items). Your new bag looks more business like, which would, I suppose, be ideal for when you’re out and about on work errands, including going to meetings. Your camera is really nice and of good quality. I looked this camera brand up on Google. You chose well. Thank you for the hygge books. The buns looked delicious, as did the hot chocolate with that extra chocolate on a stick. Your mum is very thoughtful. Look forward, as always, to your next vlog 📖☕️
I am obsessed with handbags and that is very beautiful. And yes, unboxings are quite a thing on you tube🤣next to books, they’re my favorite videos to watch. And candles 😊
Loved seeing the beautiful drifts of snowdrops and your preparations for a cosy afternoon. Your new bag is lovely and really suits you; I love the rich colour and the pattern of the leather, and I am also a fan of discreet brand labels!
I was waiting for you to pull a lamp out of your bag ala Mary Poppins. 😄 Do you carry all that just to go grocery shopping? I’m intrigued. I have 2 kids and my bag is a quarter that size. Lol. It is gorgeous though. I love the hanky idea 😄 Your mums book sounds fantastic!
Love the bag, can you ever have too many bags......🧐😂. I’ll have a look at your link, how exciting 🤣 The snowdrops and hellebores look amazing and to have so many outside your door 😍 You both looked so cosy in your snuggly jumpers, hope you had a very chilled afternoon. I’ve got Laura Purcell’s book on my wish list, I’d be interested to hear what you thought of it.
It’s a nice video I really enjoyed it! I really love your new handbag, the style you picked is just like a style that I would love to have. I also love handbags that have a kiss lock. I am definitely going to check them out. You and your mom look so cozy with your hot chocolate and cinnamon rolls. I hope you had a lovely afternoon, it looks like you did.
Hi Miranda I loved watching this video as I do all your content. I have purchased the same handbag as you as it is my ideal handbag! I used the discount code at checkout which was very welcome, given the price of the bag! I have never bought anything more expensive in my life! I want to thank you for helping me to find my perfect handbag!
What a beautiful bag Miranda! I also carry quite a bit, so it's always good to have lots of room! I also loved seeing your hygge afternoon with your lovely mum. It made me feel all cosy too!
All of the items that you keep in your bag are so very elegant. What a beautiful new handbag. I used to use a large camera for vlogging but it got to be way too much! It is hard for me to lug it around so I had to downsize. I am going to check out that website to see if I can find a new bag as well. I love the pattern on yours.
Thank you so much! I’m so pleased with it! I use a much smaller camera for vlogging too, which means I tend to carry two cameras around with me all the time 😅
Teddy Blake has your photo on their site on the bag page! How exciting! It is a beautiful bag but way beyond my price range at $459 in the sale ($800 full price).
At last... you’ve given me such great recommendations and now I can return the favour! Mascara, Estée Lauder double wear Zero-Smudge lengthening mascara. A game changer!
Very nice new bag! Do let us know how it does “in the wild” ! I must say, though, your old bag looked very comfy and had a nice patina of use. aI adore a large bag, but since I’ve gotten older a large bag is harder to carry. I bring it with and just keep it in the car and carry a smaller light weight bag that fits quite a bit. I always carry a book and have found Picador Pocket Editions to stick in my purse. They are only 5 and 3/4 inches tall and 3 and 3/4 inches wide. Currently reading Regarding the PainFits beautifully in my bag. of Others by Susan Sontag.
Thanks very much! That's a good idea to have a second small handbag to take out and about. I do find I have to have a big one when I'm going on a trip / out for the day in a city like London though! Picador Pocket editions sound the perfect handbag book! I like Slightly Foxed for that too (they can fit in tiny bags which is fab!!) xxx
Hallo Miranda, are you able to read a book while wearing contact lens?I can not go out without them, but if I am in a book shop I can not read anything.How do you solve this problem? I was admiring your disciplin, you do not carry chocolates or such treats in your bag!!😘
I'm first watching this in Aug 2024 - what a cute video! I loved the organizing of your new purse!
I love to watch you and your mum being cosy. It makes me feel cosy too, and wish that I'd enjoyed more of that with my own mother when she was alive.
Thank you! We are lucky we get on so well ❤️
Hello from Chicago. I adore watching you and your mom talking books and life in your new home.
That bag looks like it was made for you. It's gorgeous and you wear it well! I'm gobsmacked by how much it can accommodate. Your books and buns afternoon looks just divine. We enjoyed a real blizzard here on Monday and into Tuesday. It was so beautiful during the day. I curled up with "Wintering" and just relished the quiet beauty of it all.
Thank you so much, Pamela! Wintering sounds like the perfect choice of reading material 😊❄️💙

Aw the trees with all the birds eating the seed pudding was lovely to see

Enchanting, I feel the only thing missing is a pet to complete the family, perhaps a cat or little dog Miranda.

Your handbag is lovely and the Books&Buns afternoon is the perfect way to get cozy. Thank you for sharing with us!
Hi Miranda! Really nice handbag. I loved your vlog, as always. So cozy and relaxing... I love fountain pens as well. Do you collect them?

Lovely bag! Lovely mugs! ... Where are they from?
Elegant taste and stunning bag! You SHOULD consider an occasional style segment! You have a great eye. Wear your new bag in good health 😘
I am obsessed with handbags and that is very beautiful. And yes, unboxings are quite a thing on you tube🤣next to books, they’re my favorite videos to watch. And candles 😊
Beautiful bag how wonderful. Lovely vlog as always x
The new handbag is BEAUTIFUL ! Love the location outside and of course your "hygge place" inside.
Loved seeing the beautiful drifts of snowdrops and your preparations for a cosy afternoon. Your new bag is lovely and really suits you; I love the rich colour and the pattern of the leather, and I am also a fan of discreet brand labels!
Thank you so much, Naomi! I’m so pleased with it!!
I was waiting for you to pull a lamp out of your bag ala Mary Poppins. 😄 Do you carry all that just to go grocery shopping? I’m intrigued. I have 2 kids and my bag is a quarter that size. Lol. It is gorgeous though. I love the hanky idea 😄 Your mums book sounds fantastic!
Haha, I don’t even think I carry all that much 😂
Miranda, would you mind sharing your favourite lip colours at some point? Thanks for the wonderful videos.
Love the bag, can you ever have too many bags......🧐😂. I’ll have a look at your link, how exciting 🤣
The snowdrops and hellebores look amazing and to have so many outside your door 😍
You both looked so cosy in your snuggly jumpers, hope you had a very chilled afternoon. I’ve got Laura Purcell’s book on my wish list, I’d be interested to hear what you thought of it.
Lovely video and bag!
Beautiful handbag!!🌸🇨🇦
It’s a nice video I really enjoyed it! I really love your new handbag, the style you picked is just like a style that I would love to have. I also love handbags that have a kiss lock. I am definitely going to check them out. You and your mom look so cozy with your hot chocolate and cinnamon rolls. I hope you had a lovely afternoon, it looks like you did.

Spring?! Lucky you! It’s not a concept until May here! 😅 Your bag is amazing! So much space.
It's definitely both extremes at the moment - spring one day and winter again the next! Thanks so much, Julie! xxx
What a beautiful bag Miranda! I also carry quite a bit, so it's always good to have lots of room! I also loved seeing your hygge afternoon with your lovely mum. It made me feel all cosy too!

The new bag is gorgeous, hope you enjoy using it. What is it about cinnamon, the taste is such a comfort.
Thank you so much! I’m really pleased with it! I agree; cinnamon is such a comforting flavour!
Loved the video and the bag! 🥰👍🏻 I think it will go with all colours!
Thank you so much! Yes, I’m so pleased with the colour! Really useful 😊🤎
At last... you’ve given me such great recommendations and now I can return the favour! Mascara, Estée Lauder double wear Zero-Smudge lengthening mascara. A game changer!
Haha thank you so much! This Maybelline one is driving me mad!!
Your new bag is beautiful, Miranda, and very you. I really hope we can start going out and about soon so that you get to enjoy it!
Thank you so much, Georgia! I'm so pleased with it, and yes, like everyone I'm so looking forward to being able to go places again one day!! xxx
Beautiful bag. Enjoyed this very much. Must weigh a ton tho. 😂. Mine does. 👍❤️ Love the cozy vibe with this vlog. So much fun. Thank you.
Thanks Diane! Yes, I always lug around so much in my bag - it’s a workout in itself!!! 😂
Very nice new bag! Do let us know how it does “in the wild” ! I must say, though, your old bag looked very comfy and had a nice patina of use. aI adore a large bag, but since I’ve gotten older a large bag is harder to carry. I bring it with and just keep it in the car and carry a smaller light weight bag that fits quite a bit. I always carry a book and have found Picador Pocket Editions to stick in my purse. They are only 5 and 3/4 inches tall and 3 and 3/4 inches wide. Currently reading Regarding the PainFits beautifully in my bag. of Others by Susan Sontag.
Thanks very much! That's a good idea to have a second small handbag to take out and about. I do find I have to have a big one when I'm going on a trip / out for the day in a city like London though! Picador Pocket editions sound the perfect handbag book! I like Slightly Foxed for that too (they can fit in tiny bags which is fab!!) xxx
Hallo Miranda, are you able to read a book while wearing contact lens?I can not go out without them, but if I am in a book shop I can not read anything.How do you solve this problem? I was admiring your disciplin, you do not carry chocolates or such treats in your bag!!😘
