LOL I don't have a handbag, let alone a summer and a winter handbag.

You are like some 1950s woman sometimes cod. Either that or you make me feel about 10 Blush

Surely you can use a black bag if you have black shoes on?

Perish the thought of not being colour co-ordinated!!!!!

Show me an example of the sort of handbag you are using. I really don't believe ladies younger than my mum have handbags, what do they look like?

I changed to summer bag yesterday - my silver Calvin Klein one from TK Maxx.
Found it really hard to find nice one. Nothing nice in my usual fave Gap left me high and dry.

I desperately need a new bag and yesterday i broke the zip on mine. All the ones I liked in River Island were like £65 which i think i alot.
Love them but just can't afford it at the mo :(

I am pleased with it. It is surprisingly roomy so excess stuff like first aid kit fits in nicely.
I felt quite fab today and wore it on my shoulder rather than just dumping on buggy.

Summer handbag???

Is that a white jobby that matches your white summer shoes?

I am not a handbag person - I like pockets. I have had the same M&S navy job for the past 10 years.
