At SHERENE MELINDA, giving a handbag away brings us just as much joy as selling one. Running alongside the release of our latest style, the Haupt Bag, we decided to offer up the opportunity of winning one of the bags. The competition began preceding the release of the bag and closed on the last day of The Spirit of Christmas Fair. We received many responses from excited entrants, but unfortunately only one lucky winner could be chosen.
The lucky person was a lovely lady named Reelika, who was overcome with joy when we contacted her to make her aware of the good news. Following the announcement, we asked Reelika if she wouldn’t mind answering a few questions about her fantastic prize.

'I genuinely like these two detachable straps! The size is perfect for every event. Also, the colour is stunning and the quality of leather and other materials used is very good'.
'I chose a red handbag because red is my favourite colour and it matches almost everything in my wardrobe. But burnt orange and baby blue are my other favourites'.
'To be honest, I´ve been wearing my bag every day since I received it. And getting so much positive attention and interest from other women!'
'Probably as a crossbody and a clutch bag, depends on the occasion'.

We hope that Reelika enjoys her new handbag, and thanks to both her and everyone else for entering the competition. Please continue to show your support and like our Facebook page to be kept up to date with all our news.
The festive season begins 28th November at Presents Galore Christmas Fair. Visit the SHERENE MELINDA stand to explore our vibrant collection of British luxury accessories featuring ethical hair-on-hide leather, handprinted silk scarves, and eco-friendly sneakers. Shop with purpose – all ticket sales support Cambridge Children’s Hospital and local charities.
The day the first Sherene Melinda Silk Twill Scarves launched was a true milestone—one I'd worked toward through months of experimentation, setbacks, and small victories. The initial collection featured three carefully selected base colours, each the product of weeks of deliberation, testing, and refinement until they felt exactly right. Every scarf was hand-printed by me in the studio, a process that ensured each piece carried its own individual character and the small, beautiful imperfections that only handcrafting can bestow. Just as with our signature handbags, each scarf possesses a personality of its own, revealed through the interplay of colour, pattern, and subtle texture variations. This unwavering commitment to uniqueness and craftsmanship lies at the very heart of the brand's philosophy—celebrating individuality, creativity, and honouring the human touch behind every product we create.
Summer feels long behind us, and as the festive season unfolds, it’s that time of year when creativity and craftsmanship take centre stage. The Spirit of Christmas Fair remains one of London’s best-loved seasonal showcases — a place where individuality, story-driven design, and thoughtful gifting shine.
