The Sorbet Island "Holiday Mood" Velvet Shopper Bag is made from plush velvet in bright mint green — the colour of shallow water on a clear morning, vivid and immediately summery. The handles are made from the same velvet fabric, sitting comfortably on the shoulder with enough length to carry everything a full day actually requires. At the front, HOLIDAY MOOD is embroidered in fuchsia low on the bag — direct, cheerful, and exactly the right message for a bag this size heading to the beach. The bag closes with a magnetic clasp and opens to a spacious interior with a single inner pocket for the things you need to find quickly.

At 42 x 34cm it holds the full inventory of a day with no fixed plan — towel, sunscreen, change of clothes, snacks, a book, whatever else ends up in there. The interior is lined with a thick, waterproof lining that handles everything a beach bag needs to handle without giving way.

The mint and fuchsia combination is the most energetic pairing in the velvet shopper collection — and the one that's hardest to lose on a crowded beach.
