Best brands for bags

[Indecisivejo]

I want to buy a new bag but unsure which ones are the best? I currently have a radley but fancy a change. Any ideas?

[Arcadia]

I'm not into obviously 'branded' bags and got a nice bag from whistles. Was told by sales person made by same people as mulberry not sure if true! and not why I bought it! Has lasted well and good leather.

[Arcadia]

Sorry you asked for brands! I like Michael kors www.selfridges.com/GB/en/cat/womens/bags/michael-michael-kors/

[mintoil]

My cat bought me a lovely Michael Kors bag for Christmas

[Arcadia]

Blimey mintoil my DP needs lessons from your cat, I got a pair of socks from him!

[KanyesVest]

I really don't love Michael Kors. I got a Furla hobo recently and I'd happily cuddle its buttery softness in bed

[PedantPending]

I like Picard bags, but recently saw a lovely Skagen one, but it was a bit more than I would pay for a bag.

[Spectre8]

Ted Baker or DKNY for me

[Bodicea]

Tory burch do nice leather bags - you can get some bargains on the outnet
Also like aspinal of London.

[Indecisivejo]

Hmm confused now ha ha. I don't want a £££ brand just one that's good quality that will last and looks good. I'll check out all the ones mentioned so far, thanks peeps.

I have a Michael kors but think it's now really popular and everywhere. I got a lovely Cambridge satchel bag for Christmas? Would recommend having a look

[Twinkie1]

All Saints or Whistles

[glitterinmyeyes]

River Island for me, always loved them, but I'm not grown up enough for any proper designers

[annielostit]

I like radley, a few ££ than usual but not as much as 'designer'..

[Leviticus]

YY Whistles and also Jigsaw.

[mintoil]

ooh yes I have a Cambridge satchel too in electric blue and it is lovely, but a bit small for everyday use. I lug a lot of stuff around with me and prefer something slightly larger.

Would like a Radley purse puts on Christmas list for next year, cat

[Chottie]

I like Coach bags. ££ but not £££ price wise.

[louise987]

I second Coach. Fab quality, very stylish and not overly pricey. It's also nice that they aren't as popular as obviously branded bags like MK

[Indecisivejo]

What's your idea of not overly pricey? Just looked online and ones I saw were over £200!! That's Out of my price range!

[TheSpottedZebra]

But 'best brand' could mean anything!

Could you be more specific about what you're looking for - budget, what kind of bag (ie how big, shoulder strap or not...) etc?

[amarmai]

I 3rd coach- great selection, quality, detailing, and price is reasonable for what you get.

[KissMyFatArse]

I don't work for Cambridge satchel btw but they have a sale on! My bag is £40 cheaper than before Christmas! Have a swatch [santa]

[Cellardoor1]

Yes, coach! I got my first coach bag earlier this year and now own five . I may be slightly obsessed.

They are streets ahead of Michael kors in terms of quality, and not so ubiquitous

[Indecisivejo]

I want a large handbag with small straps I can hold but also a bigger one I can put over shoulder. Needs to be roomy with few compartments. Budget I would say no more than £70!
Am very upset as saw a lovely fiorelli one yest in sale and was meant to go back for it after I'd looked around but as was so chaotic out and was exhausted I forgot

[Quickchangeup]

Have a look on the fiorelli website for the bag you saw OP. Carvela do some nice bags, a friend has a lovely one but I can't comment on quality. TK maxx usually have a good selection. I've had two really nice bags I've bought in the clarks sale over the past two years so that may be worth a look.

[fruitpastille]

Why not look online for the Fiorelli one you saw? I'm not into bags but got a Rowallan one from tkmaxx that fits your criteria for about 30 quid. It seems to be lasting well.
