30 Ways To Wear Mulberry Alexa Satchel In Foggy Grey

I had this Mulberry Alexa in foggy grey in my wardrobe for a few years. While reminiscing about it I looked up some photos from the blog and was surprised to see I'd surpassed 30 wears with it! So although I've sold this bag on and no longer own it, let's look back on some of the ways I wore it while I had it.

30 Ways To Wear: Mulberry Alexa In Foggy Grey

Back in 2012 I was excitedly stalking the Mulberry Alexa bag on the now closed Reebonz site, waiting for that perfect storm of a great sale and a good exchange rate to bring it down to my budget. I was thrilled to score this bag for $1,028 as I had a discount code on top of the sale price. It was the perfect shade of greyish purple and I wore it a lot, getting to over 45 wears before I sold it on. I don't remember how much I sold it for though, which makes cost per wear tricky to calculate as I can't deduct the money I got from selling it! It works out at a $22.84 per wear just taking into account the price I paid and how many times I wore it, but I know that the new owner has worn it a bunch more too.

I sold the bag in 2016 so 45 wears in 4 years isn't too bad considering how often I rotate my bags. The turn lock closure and magnetic straps were just a bit too much each time I wanted to use the bag when my son was a newborn so it wouldn't have gotten much wear if I had decided to keep it. I probably won't stop searching it on resale sites now and then though, hoping I stumble across one at a bargain price in great condition!

Here's some of the ways I wore this beautiful foggy grey lilac toned Mulberry Alexa bag while it was in my wardrobe:

Neutral Dresses and Purple Toned Alexa Bag

A colourful bag is a go-to for me with a neutral outfit! And these neutral black and brown dresses are the perfect backdrop to showcase the lovely purpley-grey colour of this Mulberry Alexa bag. Because it's such a grey based purple, it stands out without making too much of a statement.

Office Outfits With Mulberry Small Alexa Bag

While it was in my wardrobe, I found the Mulberry Alexa was a great bag to wear to work. The muted purple colour worked well as it wasn't too bold and bright and attention grabbing. It's a nice classic style for toting everything to work and really roomy too!

Purple Toned Alexa Bag With Other Purple Clothing Pieces In An Outfit

I like a bit of matchy-matchy, but this Mulberry Alexa bag is such a unique shade of purple I didn't have anything in my wardrobe that matched it exactly! It does compliment other purple pieces in an outfit though, even if not the same shade. From the lilac tee, to the deeper purple skinny jeans, or even the berry cardigan that's more on the magenta side, this grey-ish purple goes perfectly!

Purple Scarf Outfits With Foggy Grey Alexa

Just like the outfits above, none of these purple scarves match the Alexa bag, even the lilac one around the grey dress in the middle. Again though I still think the extra shades of purple from the scarves go nicely with the different purple-grey shade of the bag.

Purple Toned Alexa Bag With Pink Outfits

Pink and purple is always a good colour combination - and these 4 outfits showcase that well, from bold neon pink, to a blush pink. The pink and purple colour combo with this bag works well in any pink shade.

Printed Dresses and Mulberry Alexa Bag

Because the Mulberry Alexa bag in foggy grey is one block colour with neutral toned hardware, it's easy to pair with printed pieces like these dresses. All three dresses here are different prints and colours but the Alexa is a great accessory with all three!

Mulberry Alexa Bag Worn In Winter Outfits

I'm not someone who thinks some colours can only be worn seasonally. While this purple toned bag is great for warmer weather, it works equally well in winter! As you saw with the neutral dress outfits above, I like it with dark winter neutrals like black, grey and navy as it provides just a little extra colour without being too bright.

Pregnancy Outfits with Mulberry Alexa Bag

I wore this Mulberry Alexa bag a lot in pregnancy - no matter how big my belly got, this bag always worked! Bags are a good investment as you can wear them for years.
