I want a tan leather across the body bag, up to £200 which looks unique, a bit different...

so which out of these

a here

b here

c here

c

possibly b

defo not a

Amanderrr · 16/09/2010 19:03

Really dislike the Radley (a). Osprey one is okay (c) but I prefer the Peony and Moore one (b).

If you don't mind me throwing another hat into the ring... What do you think of the Eden bag in honey?

polyhymnia · 16/09/2010 19:04

Don't personally like a - but I have a strange, probably unreasonable, aversion to Radley and find them a bit lacking in oomph. Though I know lots of people love them.

like b. It has some nice funky touches, and I like the sound of the turquoise lining. It looks Italian (a good thing IMO)- don't know how the 'unique' tweed back would wear, though.

I personally like c best - though it's perhaps a bit classic rather than funky, I think the bits of chain just keep it from being boring.

b

amanderrr thanks for link, but was looking for a bag with across body strap as its just so much easier with children...

Yes, sorry about that MaryQueenOfCohcs. I remembered that it had to be across body just as I clicked post message.

Having had another look there are little metal loops under the handles that a long strap from another bag could be attached to if you really liked the bag. [clutching at straws to excuse own stupidity emoticon]

Alternatively I could just shut up and let you choose from the bags you like.

Choose b! Smile

Maryqueenofchocs · 16/09/2010 20:26

i do love b........Grin

defo not radley

peony and moore one is the most unusual

osprey one is BEAUTIFUL but small and so not practical for me ( you might be more organised)

MrsC2010 · 16/09/2010 20:54

B

minibmw2010 · 16/09/2010 20:56

I don't really like any of those styles and I am a Radley fan. How about this one? I've seen it in the shop and it is lovely.

Ladyem · 16/09/2010 21:15

Definitely B!! It's lovely.

Maryqueenofchocs · 16/09/2010 21:37

anyone got a discount code for Peony & Moore before I order...?

tilly888 · 16/09/2010 21:37

B - def. I bought a bag from them this year - it's been fantastic! - good quality and not as expensive as a lot of them I looked at.

apple99 · 16/09/2010 22:39

This bag

apple99 · 16/09/2010 22:40

Sorry posted before I had finished writing, was going to say I love this bag (see above link), although may be too small for your requirements, some other lovely ones on the site though.

c0rns1lk · 16/09/2010 22:40

peony and moore one

apple99 · 16/09/2010 22:45

Also just to answer your question I like C the best.

nomorebooze · 17/09/2010 08:05

C:) love it B ok! hate radley reminds me of my gran!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mumof2teenboys · 17/09/2010 09:15

B, the others aren't anywhere near as nice.

BunnyLebowski · 17/09/2010 09:20

Definitely B!! It's really unusual and gorgeous!

The radley one is gopping.

The Osprey one is nice but a wee bit old lady-ish and impractical.

Go for B!!!

netbook · 17/09/2010 09:21

another B here

GeekOfTheWeek · 17/09/2010 09:22

B

C average

A not a radley lover at all.

Maryqueenofchocs · 17/09/2010 09:29

me thinks it's a resounding B......!

Thanks ladies, off to purchase the most gorgeous bag of them all.....plus I found an offer code on the site...happy days.Grin
