Ooh I have a YSL pom pom key ring (came with perfumes) that could be mine!

I have to say though that there isn't imo much out there in the way of reasonably (under fifty quid) priced bags. They all seem strewn with hardware and are pleather!

Nothing distinctive. All seem a bit samey.

whitelillies · 28/04/2012 08:28

warm ... I agree ..
I ve been looking for a shopper/tote type bag as I always seem to be carrying extra to my handbag (swimgear/ uniform to work/ work papers/ shopping etc)
I d like something nice but not an expensive handbag as it ll probably get a lot of wear so I want something that I wont have to 'mind' like I do the more expensive ones.
Zara do have some nice options - last season they had nice coloured leather shoppers that looked lovely ...
I d really like one of the vanessa bruno type bags I think
to add to the list .....

fouryolks I saw that bag in store after it was linked a while ago. Lovely soft leather....good price,useful too...I like its simplicity.

YSL pompon?? Amazing Grin

warmandwooly · 28/04/2012 17:22

Yup drywhite babypink/dark pink pom poms. Got to keep the sideup dry white Grin

PeriPathetic · 07/05/2012 12:51

Yay!!! My Marcie finally arrived Grin I've been on tenterhooks for the past week hoping I wouldn't miss the delivery as it's such a PITA to go elsewhere to collect.

I was also a bit anxious I'd end up paying duties on it as I've been well and truly walloped in the past. But all was well and it arrived at 0730 this morning.

Won't go all tPF on you but it's v pretty, a good denim blue and I even got a box to store it in!

AKissIsNotAContract · 07/05/2012 13:00

I'm in love with this at the moment.

FourYolksAche · 07/05/2012 14:09

Peri Envy I stroked it in Selfridges on Friday. Blue bags are underrated, they go with everything.

warmandwooly · 07/05/2012 14:58

Peri-pics on profile?please?

PeriPathetic · 07/05/2012 15:04

It's my first blue bag.

I'm also deliriously happy to have a proper box for it. It amazes me that most bags don't come with boxes.

No time to take pics for profile, sorry. here's a link instead. It's not far off this colour, perhaps a little darker.

And it's now neatly tucked away in the cupboard ready to pull out with the words "What, this old thing? Nah, I've had it for ages!" Wink

drywhiteplease · 07/05/2012 22:33

Yey we're back!!! peri I'm jealous!!!!
Had just got a grip about handbags and now this thread starts up again!!!!

PeriPathetic · 07/05/2012 23:12

Sorry Drywhite!

I actually think I'm done now Shock Mind you, I said that about three bags ago, so...

whitelillies · 09/05/2012 22:10

Peri lucky you! Hope you enjoy your purchase.

Drywhite - i m still here and will gladly drool help you find nice bags

here

drywhiteplease · 09/05/2012 22:40

V nice indeed.
I am rather pleased with myself today. In Feb I bought this bag

www.dune.co.uk/d-loulou-quilted-flap-over-bag-proddloulou33taupe/

From Dune. I know it isn't leather (eek) but I liked the Smythson/MuiMui pleating effect so gave it a go. Tbh from a distance it looks leather. Today I had a brain wave. I attached the shoulder strap and wore it across my body. It looked quite good. Think I will get a lot more wear out of it now......and it will probably fall apart by the end of the summer, but hey Ho!

warmandwooly · 10/05/2012 11:24

Its lovely drywhite. You might grow tired off it in a few months etc so at that price its well worth it. Better than buting a Miu Miu and paying the money....

madammecholet · 10/05/2012 13:20

Loving your blue marcie peri deeeeliciousss! just seen this blue bag in P&M sale.. tis lovely also.. swoon

Have been floowing this thread and drooling. Sadly I don't have ??????? for a Chloe or Mulberry but I have just ordered the Vintage Re-issue Hobo from Fossil, in Russet Brown. Will try to do a link...

Ladies Chic and seek has a gold Mulberry Roxy on.....less than four hundred, same with a pink roxy and chloe bags including a see by chloe bag at one hundred and fifty, see by chloe cream sacthel for not much over 300 and a chloe cream tote for two hundred!.

Also Smythson for under 400!

Just saying!

drywhiteplease · 10/05/2012 19:27

Great tip.....I'm off to look

FourYolksAche · 10/05/2012 21:38

Just checked out that site - great for bags, but their pricing for clothing is on the optimistic side! I assume the prices are like a 'Buy it Now' and most go for less.

Love the pink Roxy if the sun ever appeared

FourYolksAche · 14/05/2012 21:55

I want this Marc by Marc Lil Ukita in black to replace my khaki Natasha. Need to hold out for a sale though. Tried a few Mulberrys Mulberries in Selfridges but I love Marc, and I want a black crossbody.
