I just bought a good sized bag from Kipling on the QVC site (qckuk.com).
Under £50.
Pockets. A keyfob.
And it can be washed (not leather ).
Good because one of mine had an unwrapped sweet in it, another had a sachet of tomato ketchup that burst (thanks DS) Hmm.

Does it have to be leather?

Any particular style/colour?

Shoulder/crossbody?

Have you gone into TK Maxx? I think they hands down have the best quality handbags on the high street at really competitive prices.

Proper Italian leather!

How about one if these?

I have one in the bowling bag style. I got it in the sale for £30. It gets lots of comments and is big enough for lunch, a book and a pair of shoes

i can't see that one

i got a leather messenger bag from tk maxx in the end, really like it, its dead plain but really nice leather and only £40

still a bit dismayed at the lack of nice bags online though i may be super picky
