The range, which boasts imagery and details from one of the most loved characters in Disney history, will have you swooning in no time.

The bags are now available via the Kipling site and Disney.com. They are also sold at 35 Kipling retail outposts and other department stores in which Kipling is sold.

There are 19 styles total and the range includes totes, wristlets, cosmetics cases, and keychains. The collection starts at $18 and goes as high as $169.

The Kipling bags takes direct inspo from Alice and her free spirt. The goods are defined by pastels, florals, and pops of color. The collection is ultimately a fashion harbinger of the coming spring season.

"Given [that] this is our spring collection, we incorporated an abundance of playful florals and vibrant colors to make it a natural fit for the season," lead designer Christine Lee tells Bustle via email.

Familiar faces, such as the always-grinning Cheshire Cat and The Queen of Hearts, are prominently featured in the pieces. It's a whimsical collection that will speak to all fans of Alice in Wonderland.

"Alice in Wonderland inspires a sense of nostalgia in customers of all ages who have memories of the story, animated film or live-action adaptations," Kipling North America president Nina Flood tells Bustle.
