Handbag suitable for elderly mum

Can anyone suggest where I might find a small black handbag with a shoulder strap suitable for my mum in her 80s? M & S, Next etc. all look too trendy for her, it needs to be plain without any gold or silver embellishments! Budget around £50. Thanks

I have a plain black backpack from Mia tui. They do other styles too.

Are these too embellished for her? Just trying to get a sense of what she wants.

Clarks tend to be a bit more traditional? TKMaxx always worth checking out

It would be good if you could say why your mother cannot bear embellishment or fashionability in accessories, @NeverNaughtyNanna. Cognitive difficulties? A funeral? Apologies if the reason is a miserable one.

Thank you for your suggestions but the Mia Tui bags are too big, Mum only carries a purse and keys. The Apsley bags look good. The reason Mum doesn’t like embellishments is that she feels they are too young for her and she is quite a conservative dresser.

Lakeland leather has some nice plain black leather cross body bags.

TK Maxx. Huge variety to choose from in the two branches near me, including plain black, navy and other dark colours.
