If I walked into your office carrying this bag

[QuietBatPeople1]

What would your first thought be? Too loud? Too big? Great bag to fit everything in?

I’ve disabled voting- hope that works

I’d think it would hurt your shoulder on your commute and would wonder if a laptop would fit.

My jaw would drop if I found out how much you paid for it as all handbags look like they come off market stalls - but otherwise, I'd just think 'arm clutter' or not notice at all.

I don't think I'd notice it.

I thought this was going to be a massive bag with a really bold pattern, although even then, I'd probably notice it and not really think about it... but that's a perfectly non-descript bag.

The most offensive thing about it is the price!

It's a pretty standard bag for anywhere I've worked, albeit expensive.

I'd think you got it from TKMaxx - but why would you care what people think of your bag? Why would people even have an opinion? Do you work at Vogue?

I really like it.

It's nice enough. I'd probably tell you i like it.

Literally would not even notice. Standard looking bag surely?

It's ok. Straps are a bit naff. Doesn't look like it costs as much as it does. Any others you are considering OP?

I thought it was going to be something with a huge sweary slogan on it! It's just a bag. I don't pay any attention to the bags my colleagues have.

Honestly?

I'd think 'QVC must have had a special offer, as surely nobody would be daft enough to pay out that much for a bag that ugly'

I would, I love your bag, where did you get it. I think unless it has an inappropriate slogan on I can't imagine a bag I wouldn't take to the office if I wanted to.

I'd think, "I wonder whose bright idea it was to put those blue stripes on it? They should be fired."

I’d think why are you using an affiliate link to direct people to this website? Seems like a shady way to try and earn some cash off any mumsnet users who might purchase something off Kate Spade in the next month...

@Inapanini so this is how conspiracy theories are made!! Some vivid imagination

@Inapanini That doesn't look like an affiliate link? There's no identifier...

I just wanted a second opinion- not saying I live my life based on what integer think but we all have been cooped up indoors for long and I’m not sure if my tastes have been a bit stuck and not updated.
I don’t particularly like it but wanted to go for something different

I’d think you’ve stolen it from your granny!

I wouldn’t think anything. Why do you care what people think?

It literally says LinkSynergy when you open the link, no conspiracies here :)

Average looking bag. Probably wouldn't even notice.

If I knew it was Kate Spade, I’d think about the ethics. And that it looks like something from Asda.

For the people who say I don’t notice/care - I usually do and always compliment. We all have bad days bike it with it otherwise if my saying ‘ oh you look really nice in that dress’ or ‘ like your taste in bags’ brightens someone’s day (or even that minute) why not?

Yeah but if you walked in with that on your arm and I said 'nice bag' I'd be lying

Granny bag

I like it - not quite sure I’d buy it myself as I’m not one for patterns but I would complement you on it and it certainly wouldn’t ‘offend’ me!
