Style and beauty

I really like a Radley handbag (I never thought I'd say that as usually not at all my style). I don't want to pay €389 for it though.

It's a Radley Grosvenor, in brown. Any ideas for cheaper places to one?

I was planning to get myself a second Peony and Moore Mariella but I don't like any of the colours this season.

That's really nice. If you have a House of Fraser outlet near you they normally stock Radleys at a discounted price, some current, some past season.

Also a lot of department stores stock them so worth keeping an eye out for one of their discount weekends - if you're prepared to wait that is Wink

There is an outlet village that has a Radley store, it's quite a drive away though. It would be a bit of a push to get there and back between school dro off and pick up. I might phone and see if they have it in stock.

I had a quick look at eBay but couldn't find that colourway.

This claims to be the same bag but at £59.99 ...I'm not so sure! Radley Sample?

Fortunately I don't like that one JB10, so I don't need to worry if it's fake or not. Smile

That's very kind of you watchingout, but I'm in Ireland so even if it's in the outlet near your Mum it doesn't mean it would be available in the outlet here. By all means go and check it out though. Wink

I saw a Radley outlet shop in Bicester village yesterday. You could phone and ask them if they have it, they may be able to post it to you.

I spotted a Radley discount code in a magazine yesterday! Try 'AW13TREAT' - it should give you 15% off. Good luck! Grin

I have that bag. Im not a Radley person either but apart from being heavy its a really good bag. Plenty of room in it. I plan to use it as my college bag from next week.

What colour bag do you want terribletantrums

TerribleTantrums · 03/09/2013 19:24

Thanks sparkle, I'll check that out.

I want the chocolate brown colour madammecholet. I think it's the sort of bag that will probably look better as it ages rather than just looking tired.

I've been too busy to phone the outlet here in Ireland. The trouble is I'm usually only thinking about shopping once the DC are in bed, which is too late to phone.

I'm not usually into Radley, but that one's lovely! I'd buy it.

Oh no! They don't have one at the outlet, so I went back onto the website to use Sparkle's code and I think it has expired. Sad It says "not valid".

I love that bag, have they got rid of the doggie branding? It always completely put me off.

That bag is beautiful. It's been kicking around for a few seasons now though, so surely there's a rip off somewhere?

i have the grosvenor, medium size in a tan. got it from boundary mill in the radley outlet section, was reduced to £120 down from £219 as it's last years colour range. lovely bag, i went for the medium as the large was a little too big. only annoying feature is the 2 dangly straps and the front get bent if i put the bag down instead of hanging it up somewhere.

still, it's my one and only leather handbag, was my birthday present!

I'm going to Bicester today, so could have a look for you?

I'm not a radley fan either but that does look nice.

The dog tag they put on them is hideous.

the grosvenor is very discreet on the doggie front, it has a badge on the bag which matches the leather of the bag saying radley, only dog is inside on the lining.

Fairly sure they had them at Bicester (name wasn't on the tag but looked like your bag). They cost £189-£199.
