Oooh whoops my hand must have slipped and I bought it...(new bag what do you think?)

[TattyDevine]

Red Direct sent through one of their newslettery email things and a bag seriously caught my eye, it just jumped out the page at me.

Its the Peony and Moore "Lucia" in Camel.

I did a google for their website and of course its on the actual Peony and Moore website for £199 instead of Red's inflated price of £225 (how rude! I suppose they have to make some money but still)

So of course I got it from Peony and Moore but anyway, what do you think? I've been looking for a bag that goes on your shoulder, doesn't have a massively long strap though (as in cross body bag) and that kind of colour and (hopefully) quality. I hope it lives up to my expectations, if not of course I will send it back. I also like the style/shape, outer compartments, and the lining etc. Lush lush lush.

What do you reckon

I think I can justify it on the basis that it will (probably) stop me buying a Mulbery this year! Yes, the bag will actually save me money

Anyone else treating themselves to a new bag this spring? Which one's are you coveting?

I like it, it is actually very similar to a Mulberry Annie. Nice colour, too.

Thanks half term.

I agree, about the colour, I find the Mulberry camel a bit too toffee...this seems in the photo a more straw colour, lovely with your white linen stuff in summer.

Hope its the same as in the pic. Had a nice bag from Boden once in that kind of straw colour with butter soft leather, but quite big and boxy, used to use it when I worked.

Ooh I can't wait.

Yes, it will look great all year round I reckon! I agree it will look great with summer whites. I can see it with a floaty floral maxi dress, too!

Mmmmm. Ooh.

Tatty I posted this bag earlier on another thread as I ADORE it....:)

um, a nicebag, although does look near on identical (slightly longer handle i think) to my mulberry anie bag!

That's gorgeous, bit out of my price range but a really, really nice bag

Ooh I do love a good hobo satchel. It's gorgeous - funky yet classic.

Good purchase! I love tan bags - I wear mine with black clothes and tan boots now and in the summer it'll looks good with white jeans and tan wedge sandals.

Lovely

very nice, lovely colour, but will it reeeeeaaaaly stop you buying a Mulberry ? I kept buying substitutes until DP relented and bought me one for my 40th. I must say though yours is a nicer colour.

Tatty did you love the bag? -- waiting to hear before I order one too!!

I love it, in fact dh bought me it for christmas :o

Ooh I had to join in the thread cause I also got a Lucia from Peony and Moore for christmas and Its gorgeous! Everyone comments on it when I'm out with girlfriends and DP definitely scored alot of brownie points! I actually was amazed how lovely and soft the leather is for the price...really good quality & the colour is fab! It will definitely see me into summer! :) :)

Lucky girl! - - no one to buy me one so hey ho! the best presents are the ones you buy yourself so they say!!! Lucia here I come!!

Oh lordy, I am going to have to get one now. Shame on you tatty ducky bottles and stricly for posting. My credit card hates you all.

Camel or Grey? I do like the tan but the grey would also go with loads of things??

:)

I have the grey madam -- goes with everything!! AND will look cool in the summer with white linen trousers - just need to buy the whiten linen trousers ... .- - - hhmmmmmm -

Ooh, now you've got me...like this?

here

My apologies to your credit card madammecholet! But you won't regret it! I also love the grey - its not too dark and looks like it would be fab for spring? Depends what kind of colours you usually wear?? Favourite shoe colour etc?

Well, I am currently living in brown riding boots, so the tan would be fine for now. However, in the summer I will be in all sorts of colours...

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..........

ooh nice trousers madammecholet... yours and my credit card may be at war at this rate! Roll on summer!! (is it too early to buy white trousers.... this is a dangerous use of friday night!) :) :)

Never too early bottles ....I love my white jeans, wear them all thru the summer, which is why either bag would be fine...I think I may sleep on it and decide in the morning..

I like sleeping on handbags...
