Anyone know where I can find a good quality ( made to last!) leather tote WITH a lining for summer general use , shopping, holidays, all my stuff, kids bits and bobs / spare clothes etc - that doesn't look like my grannies.?

Thanks Tether Dover Tote is gorgeous! - just too much money didn't want to spend much more than £170 - although I want it to be a classic bag that I keep and use for many years.
Jaeger Hampton is too smart and formal I think and love the Red one -- but it's sold out!!
How do you find so many ?? - savvy shopper you!!Wink

I was looking for a bag for a looong time, so remember sites Wink

How about this?

I love this- CnP the link, cant link to HoF:

Yellow

I would actually go to a Jaeger shop and see what sale stock they have left- some bargains to be had.

Do you want a red bag?

I saw this recently, really really gorgeous and very classic imo..

Thanks for all your help Tether - like the Banana Republic bag - not sure about the snake finish though - like the shape -but didn't want a red bag - more cool colours and go with anything ifywim

The Mint Velvey bag is just gorgeous and I love it too! Have you seen it in RL, Count? I can see that it says that it will go over the shoulder, but would it really (if you were wearing a mac, shall we say)?

Winetimeisfinetime · 13/04/2011 16:51

The TK Maxx website is always worth a look. What about this or in light blue .

CountBapula · 13/04/2011 17:56

Happy I have one of my very own and yes, you really can wear it over your shoulder though I usually have it dangling from the pram.

HappyAsIAm · 13/04/2011 18:02

Ooooh, it is very beautiful indeed and I am incredibly tempted. Haven't had a luxury bag purchase for a while, instead I have bought a very summery number that will go with lots of things today www.phase-eight.co.uk/fcp/product/warehouse/Bags/Sequin-Stripe-Canvas-Bag/702225315

madammecholet · 13/04/2011 18:37

Love Peony & Moore, there was a discount code on here not long ago...will go an rummage..Smile

cabbageroses · 13/04/2011 19:04

Fossil?

Trawl the John Lewis website?

strictlysauvignon · 14/04/2011 07:43

Thanks all! - -think I'll send for the Peony and Moore one - like the colours Navy and White for summer - and Banana Rep one and send back the one I like least - free returns so I can! - Did you find any voucher codes Madam ??

OH NO! Just as I am bout to order - they (www.peonyandmoore.com) do a 48 hour flash sale ! - but not on the bag I was going to buy !!-- dilema? - Gabriella Ver Ver cheap - or the Tote?! - more decisions just as I had made one.!
