I’ve already done the review, and today I’ve spent some time taking some snapshots of the Mulberry Summer Tweed Alexa (SGD1690). Honestly it is one gorgeous bag and personally I’m liking it a little bit more than the one in soft buffalo leather.
If however you want to see how the Mulberry Alexa in soft buffalo leather looks like, check out my readers’ conquests (3 in Oak to be exact) in Bagaholicboy Mailbag.

you know, i like this one. satchel type of messenger bag. was this designed for women?
Yes it was Yed. Though I know some guys don’t mind the Oversized Alexa which is slightly bigger…
Oh my… this is gorgeous!
this is gorgeous! is it already available in the SG mulberry outlets?
Yes it is!
BB, how’s the tweed? does it seem long lasting/easy to maintain or would the leather be better in this aspect? thanks in advance!
Arggg … still waiting. Lastest is that it will hit the shops here late April with limited pieces.
Love the photos!
Thanks Mark! Welcome home by the way!
The tweed, leather and hardware comes together like a dream… Just wondering why the colour of the tweed seems a tad darker than the images which were released earlier though.
BB does this come in the oversized version?
My snaps are closer to the true colour of the Summer Tweed Alexa, the official images in comparison are a little paler. And no, it only comes in regular for this particular combination for now.
After taking such a ‘closer’ look on Tweed Alexa, i agree it’s so much nicer than in soft buffalo. But i still need to see it irl…. think i will melt once i see it… hahaa
I went to the hilton shop today but they said that they did not carry the fab tweed, where else can i get it? i am so loving it!
Not at all? Could be sold out… did you put yourself on the waiting list.
not at all. they said that it was part of the runway collection and would only be in end march/april. so sad… i saw your lovely pics and fell so in love… but i left my contact and am keeping my fingers crossed that they will call soon.
I LOVE UR BLOG!
it gives me hope!
all your detailed descriptions of the ALEXA are amazing. ur passion for bags is incredibly inspiring!
AM soooo tempted to get the alexa right NOW!
Here’s a quick update; the Mulberry Summer Tweed Alexa will not be officially out till March 2010, so the best thing is to put yourself on the waiting list now at Hilton Shopping Gallery.
It’s beautiful… But I’m still more of a leather girl… I need to check out the one in Nude!
Argh. I would love this combo in Oversized. Guess I’ll just pass on this bag for now (not that my bank account will not thank me).
Hi BB, I may get this in europe mid-year when i am there… like some of the others, i notice that summer tweed on the website looks grey, while yours looks a beautiful brown! just to make sure its the same model or does it come in 2 shades? can enlighten me…
My snapshots are a little darker, but they are closer to the real thing… really gorgeous in real life!
Bagaholicboy, thanks so much for the pictures – I’ve been dying to see what it really looked like ‘irl’ as I’m well aware of how Mulberry tends to photograph their bags on the light side… esp the ink Alexa, which I’ve seen IRL and the picture in Mulberry website is so much lighter.
May I ask what the care instructions are for the tweed bag?
oooh this is lovely! how many colors do they come in?
the previous pic of the bag u posted in jan reminded me a li’of the miu miu coffer in quilted linen which i have. but i love this color!! more affordable than the miu miu satchel too.
I saw the Alexa in Hong Kong but they only had black and no oversized. Going for about SGD1,500 after discount. The oversized Alexa in Oak is my current lust-after bag – but i dont know if they have it in Singapore now?
The HK stores said it would only be available in mid to end July there. If anyone is in the Mulberry Singapore boutique pls help me check price, size etc. Thanks! Otherwise may get it in London.
i have this bag and it is fab.
