Our Bags’ Moments of Fame - Cambridge Satchel

The New Year is often a time for contemplation, and after the year we’ve all had - full of unexpected changes and the need to adapt - it’s beneficial for us all to take a step back and reflect.

At The Cambridge Satchel Co., we’ve been casting our minds back to the many times that our bags have had their ‘15 minutes of fame’. Over the years, we have been lucky to have some celebrity fans who have worn our many different styles, and we have also spotted our bags in a number of films. Get the look…


Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Perhaps our biggest celebrity superfan (she even has a bag, The Sophie, named after her!), Sophie Ellis-Bextor has worn our satchels right from our very beginnings.


Lady Gaga

When Lady Gaga wore not one, but TWO of our bags in London… wow. We were so excited! What an honour to see her wearing the Cloud Bag and the Mini Poppy, both in Dusky Rose.


Taylor Swift

As Taylor Swift sings, ‘We’ll never go out of style’. She certainly won’t if she continues to wear our Twist Lock Tote in Oxblood. Can’t find it on our website? Stay tuned…


Helena Bonham-Carter

Our woman crush, the queen of style. Helena Bonham-Carter wears our premium, unique and roomy Doctor’s Bag in Bordeaux. The ultimate nod of approval.


Tom Daley

For the sportsman Tom Daley, a Portrait Backpack was a perfect practical choice of bag. Looking good, Tom!


Suki Waterhouse

Is anyone as glamorous as Suki Waterhouse? Donning an embossed Saddle Bag in Vintage, the model looked stunning in LA. 


Emma Stone

Emma Stone wore a classic 11 Inch Satchel in Vintage on the set of The Amazing Spider Man. Emma Stone! It's our favourite Spider Man film for sure, and we're definitely not biased...


Alexa Chung

You know you’ve made it when Alexa Chung wears your designs. Clutching an 11 Inch Satchel outside NBC, she looked fantastic. 


ZAYN

That time we spotted Zayn Malik wearing our 15 Inch Satchel in Vintage. Great choice. 


And let’s not forget our bags’ star appearances on TV and in films. Here are some of our favourites… 


Girls

Lena Dunham wearing her 14 Inch Batchel in Vintage and Navy on the set of Girls. Iconic. 


Gossip Girl 

Our 11 Inch Satchels featuring in Gossip Girl. XOXO!


The Good Wife

Thanks to Daniel Lawson for this shot of Christine Baranski spotted on set of The Good Wife with her gorgeous 15 Inch Red Batchel!


Mad Men

Our 15 Inch Satchel in Dark Brown in Mad Men, as pictured in Elle.


Falling for Figaro

The Music Case in Oxblood in the romantic comedy Falling for Figaro.


If we were to list them all, we’d be here all day! So tell us - where else have you spotted our bags? Get in touch and let us know!
