Royal-approved accessories label Aspinal of London has teamed up with Princess Diana‘s nieces, Lady Emilia Spencer and Lady Amelia Spencer, in an exciting new partnership.
To celebrate, the brand unveiled a 1960s-inspired campaign shot in the English countryside, where the sisters pose with dreamy handbags, silk headscarves and statement sunglasses – the epitome of modern yet timeless elegance.
As Iain Burton, Founder and Chairman of Aspinal of London, put it: ‘I don’t think you could find anyone better to represent English elegance than the Spencer sisters. The girls capture everything that defines Aspinal: timeless style, stunning elegance, but a spirit that is relatable, democratic and Brit cool.’
I couldn’t agree more. Aspinal has long been synonymous with sophistication, and it’s no surprise the brand has been worn by so many royals, including the Princess of Wales, Zara Tindall, Princess Beatrice and Queen Camilla.
Like Princess Kate, I’ve been a loyal fan of the Midi Mayfair for years (she first carried it back in 2018). The vintage-inspired shape instantly elevates any outfit, and right now the cherry ombré version is at the very top of my wish list.
Red acts as a neutral – it works with everything from day to night – and the sleek croc finish shows off Aspinal’s craftsmanship beautifully.
For everyday use, I love the practicality of the Ella Crossbody. It’s just the right size for essentials, with clever internal pockets to keep everything organised. The artisanal slot weave in full-grain leather gives it a rich, textured look.
If you’re after something more trend-led, the Hudson Crescent is a standout. Its curved silhouette tucks neatly under the shoulder – perfect for a grab-and-go style that still feels polished. I especially appreciate the contrast red lining, which makes finding things inside so much easier.
For something lighter, the Hudson Crossbody Pouch is a brilliant option when running errands. Available in small and large sizes, it’s roomy enough for my phone and keys while still keeping a soft, relaxed look.
Accessories-wise, Aspinal has equally appealing offerings. The Chelsea Sunglasses – a modern twist on the cat-eye – are sleek and versatile, while the Animal Kingdom Scarf, crafted from pure Italian silk twill, is a real work of art.
And of course, the finishing touch: like all Aspinal handbags, these can be personalised with your initials in either gold or blind embossing, making them as special as they are stylish.
