Mulberry, we need to talk...

I love (in no particular order) your bags, your take on all that is quintessentially British, and some of the original pieces from your Home Collection circa 1991 (especially the pewter frames and original screenprints by Rosemary Saul). And I was excited by the news that Katie Grand would be at the creative helm as of the Spring 09 collection but...what happened for Spring of 08?

Denim overalls tucked into cowboy boots...an emerald green satin skirt suit...yet more satin, this time in pale pink...

The overall feel is "bad thrift store"...you know, not the "finds" that the cool girls get...just the stuff that's left for the rest of us.
