about alexandra bee


You know the drill, your mobile is ringing, it’s at the bottom of your bag, and you frantically search for it amidst all the junk until you’re whipped into a mad frenzy and resort to chucking everything out! Finally managing to find the phone, you hit the answer button and the caller drops…


Most of today’s handbags are beautiful, but in organizational terms, a disaster. And so, in the Spring of 2006, alexandra bee was born - a collection of trendy oversized bags featuring numerous hidden compartments that carry all of a fashionista’s essentials: blackberry, ipod, laptop, sunglasses, and even an extra pair of shoes!


After years of running my own business selling luxury shoes and handbags in London, I realised there was a gap in the market for well-organised stylish bags. I design my bags with working women and mothers in mind, I want them to feel stylish and empowered, even while they lug all their paraphernalia around.


These “IT” bags are versatile enough to organize your hectic life while being chic enough to be taken from day to a night on the town. They can be used as day bags, evening bags, overnight bags, weekend bags, or even baby bags… the possibilities are endless!


The bags are practical with lots of pockets and hidden compartments, made with premium Italian leathers and the choicest fabrics, each carefully handcrafted by skilled Italian artisans.


I hope you find them as beautiful and practical as I do!
