Radley bags?

[thisisyesterday]

it's my birthday at the end of the month, and my handbag is shit, so i thought i might drop some hints to dp about what i might like!

anyone have any opinions on the following?

number 1

number 2

number 3

number 4

number 5

Or any other suggestions of bags I might like??

You mean a Barnsley Briefcase Moos?!

Me too though, rather than carry a Radley.

O love number 5.

But then I will admit to owning both a Radley bag and a Kipling bag, and am currently wearing a Per Una cardigan. So I am no style icon...

O I

You either love Radley or hate them.Plenty of people love them which is why they fetch £££ second hand on Ebay.

I am not keen- have seen a few slouchy styles that they do which are okay but generally the leather is a bit too thick and stiff for my liking.

Ouska are nice but they are too big for me, personally.

I have an Ri2K bag which I love, and to the OP I suggest you also explore Ted Baker, Jigsaw, and Osprey.

My limit for a bag is around £150. I don't have many bags and if I buy an expensive one it lasts for about 2-3 years, used every day.
I have a couple of cheap Nicca bags which are not leather and I chose them for the colours togowith summer outfits.

TK Maxx has some good stuff, though you have to sift. A lot of it is made-for-clearance-stores if you see what I mean - but I picked up my Scout storage boxes there for pennies which are a lot more expensive in the US and hard to find here (wish I'd bought them all now...)

You might want to look here, OP

I liked Bunny's bags

I bought this one last week, used it for first time today ... I love it. Its my third Radley, the first two were presents and I have a lovely Radley purse.

PS: I'm 37, not particularly what I'd call middle-aged or dull and I dress very smartly for work and my Radley bags help make the outfit (in my opinion).
