Don’t you just hate putting your expensive designer bag on the floor at restaurants, bars and café? Help is at hand in the form of an accessory that makes hooking up bags hassle-free and stylish.

Designed by a pair of French sisters Nirnia and Héloïse who call their label cheekily just that- French Sisters-, the accessory simply hooks onto the edge of a table, so that you can hang your bag from it. The colourful stones of the hook add a sophisticated bling to it. Self-confessed fashion lovers Nirina and Héloïse first set up shop in California in 2005 and started designing rings that were an instant hit. Two years after the launch of their brand in the United States, the French Sisters officially arrived in Europe in November 2007, with their new product, the Clip-Bag.

While Nirina is now back in France, Héloïse lives in London, where she is a graphic artist. The inspiration of the globe-trotting sisters can be summed up in four words: refinement, chic, simplicity and originality. Their various collections reflect the beautiful paradox between simplicity and originality, as reflected in the Clip Bag.
