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

@Inapanini My apologies, I didn't click, I used the preview and it didn't show

I’d think it very stylish indeed. I think you might need a fairly plain dress/suit but could wear a lovely necklace or perhaps a silk scarf.

@radiateforme - I didn’t say be untruthful

I wouldn't care or comment, I don't have an opinion on what other people wear really.

I'd be disappointed if you didn't pull out a mirror and a hat stand and didn't go home on a flying umbrella.

It looks like that really dated designer who had stuff about 2007. I can’t remember the name but sort of 60s prints? Same era as Radley 😷

It’s not a nice bag but it’s pretty much invisible, I wouldn’t comment on it but definitely wouldn’t buy it

Okay dropping this one/ I’ll carry on looking for another bag which would fit all my work stuff- which seems to be a bit of a pain.

It's a pickpocketer's dream.

@FourTeaFallOut yes I think I should go for the entire ensemble!!! 😂😂😂

I honestly wouldn't notice, care or think anything.

I wouldn't be paying any attention to what bag you were carrying.

I wouldn't notice it. It's a perfectly OK bag. If you then told me what it cost, I might drop dead from shock, but I never have understood paying £££ for a bag.

Nobody would even look or comment.

I like it. It's the type of bag I would use but there is no way on earth I would pay that for it!!!

I have zero fucks to give about anyone else’s handbag choices.

had another look at the website, before the irritating music made me close it. Doesn't fasten, handles are too short to carry it easily unless you also are really short and there's a lot of tatty twiddly bits which add extra weight.

so as an item for carrying things around, it is a bit shit.

Tbh I think it’s very ‘American’. I imagine a woman with a very styled blonde bob, wearing sunglasses and pink lipstick wearing this bag who walks in and says goodmornin’ ya all

I don't like it, don't think it's horrible but it's just not my taste. I wouldn't think anything if I saw someone with it.

I don't think I have ever noticed anyone's handbag in 58 years.

Well if you were George Clooney, I would be a little taken aback but I wouldn't say anything.

I don't particularly like it myself but it's hardly garish.

I'd probably notice it the first time I saw it but then not after that.

I’d glance up at you, almost certainly not register your bag at all, on the off chance I did would think ‘boujee’ and then most likely forget you and the bag ever existed.

If you like it, get it, life is too short to give a shite what other people think!

I actually prefer the other colourway (green/pink) i think the blue bag makes it look more beachy/casual. Id wear it with jeans white t shirt / white trainers, I don't think it would suit more formal work outfits. Seems like you're on the fence about this one anyway, post a few more links of one's that really grab your attention! :) And whats your usual work wardrobe like?

I'd think it's probably clashing with whatever you wore it with tbh
Sorry OP, really not keen. Spending that much I'd want something a bit more "classic" that I could wear with anything.

Practically, it also looks like it would be v. heavy as soon as you started filling it up, and the handles are hideous.
I think you could get a much much nicer bag for the same money,

But the main thing is that you like it? Are there any other options?

I wouldn't notice it really, but if I did I would be a bit judgey about your gaudy taste. I prefer timeless elegance rather than retro fads. I might also suspect that you hadn't a clue and that you got it down the market for a fiver.
