which bag?

It's my 30th birthday at the end of the year, and my Mum said she'd spend about £100 on a bag for me. I'd like it to be a bit of an investment, to last me years. I've got a 3 month old dd, and would like this to be a 'Mummy' bag to hold nappies, colouring pens, toys etc day to day and also an overnight bag for me. I have ordered two to try at home (will return one or both of them) and have also got my eye on another one.

Can you let me know which one you think I should get? I think I'm leaning towards one, but would like some opinions...

one

two

or three? (this one I have ordered in brown, not grey, the brown has sold out but you can see it in a small picture on the right)

or any different suggestions? I would like brown leather and tend to go for plainer styles, want something that I can wear/use with anything

You need a Lin and Leo bag!! They are fab, really roomy, zip out fully, lots of pockets and well made. I have the turquoise one and it is lovely :)

I like the second one best. The others are a bit cognac-y coloured and I have one that colour and find it can clash a bit with certain colours.

The Linea one has less red in it, so would go with everything. I like the shape better too. First one is a bit too much like a office/briefcase.

I like the second one- looks lovely leather and looks as though it will age well.

Ooh Jessica, I like your one!

Have you looked at peony and moore they often have discounts on.

Reiss over budget but will undoubtedly be in the sale in the next few weeks

Seen thiswww.peonyandmoore.com/product_info.php?products_id=136 - they are sure to do a discount or flash sale before Christmas- bring the price down a bit --and if I had known this colour was coming back I would have waited Envy

Thank you! Think I will take advice and look in some of these sales when they start to happen. Back to square one but I will quite enjoy shopping around again.
Thanks for all the suggestions
