so given that not enough of you approved of the last bag...please help me find a new one?

[Heathcliffscathy]

Budget is under £250.

Leather (obv).

I really liked the jaegar one here

I liked the reinforced handles (i don't treat my bags with care, the opposite in fact) and studs at the bottom. I liked the colour and chunkiness and matt nature of the metal.

I HATED the patent bit and the fact that it had a Jaegar label (hate labels of any kind).

I liked the shape although it could be a bit less structured. I liked that it looks timeless.

Ideally I want a charcoal coloured bag, but I'll go for black or red if it's the right one.

I SO need a new handbag (that I wear on the shoulder and isn't too big otherwise i fill it with guff and do my shoulder in) as my current one is plastic and literally falling apart.

help me obiwan you're my only hope.

Am not sure the straps on that jaeger one are long enough to wear on your shoulder anyway tbh, esp over a winter coat/jacket.
The warwick hobo or the tilly are nicer anyway imo.

no labels

sturdy too small? wrong colour etc...

They are good quality and there's a special offer on the home page (£50 off or something)

This is where I bought my first proper "lady" handbag from!

Fireorangepips that bag is lovely.

Oushka similar feel to balenciaga.

Jigsaw and Comptoir have nice bags in store at the type of price you're after.

oh i love the oushka bag but it's too big...I can't do a big bag as it does my shoulder...a mini version of that would be perfect!

this is fab

but so expensive!!

and again...now i see it on the modle its too big!

i want that shape but smaller

Jigsaw in Bath had loads of that range in store in different shapes and sizes.

Were very lovely indeed.
