CSC X Matilda: Our Summer Colours - Cambridge Satchel

Calling all grown-ups! 

So many of you adored our collection of bags and accessories embossed with Quentin Blake’s iconic illustrations from Roald Dahl’s Matilda. Well, everyone’s favourite bookworm has just made another exciting appearance this summer. 

To celebrate the recent release of Matilda The Musical on Netflix UK and Ireland, we have launched our Mini Matilda and Matilda Purse in three new beautiful pastel colours! Let’s learn more about them…


Bluebell

Bluebells are the first tell-tale signs spring is on its way, their sweet smelling bell-shaped heads bob in the gentle wind creating a lilac haze.


This colour captures the British Bluebells’ wild lilac hue that you will find sweeping across the British woodland floor.


Rambling Rose Matte

In the words of Nat King Cole, ‘Who can paint you, my rambling rose?’. Well, we’ve done our best to mimic the wild roses that bloom with a spectacular burst of colour, covering the woodland in a cloud of pink.  A beautiful hue with a matte finish. 


Cambridge Blue

If Cambridge was a colour… Cambridge Blue is a beautiful hue representative of the University and its team sports. It has a nostalgic feel to all those who have walked the city’s streets, and makes for a gorgeous tone for your bag. 

Whether you’re a long-time Matilda fan, a proud bookworm or you’d just like to add a little extra magic to your summer, discover the entire Cambridge Satchel Co. X Matilda collection here.
