I'm not overly keen. There was another thread about the one with the picture of the dog driving a car. Hang on...

They seem very popular recently - I have had to buy two as presents! - and they are some lovely designs out there.

Love Scotties. Own a real one. Each to their own, but I just don't get the appeal of the bags (or the cost!).

Sorry, but I don't see the attraction with these at all. Would rather carry a Morrissons carrier bag!

But Mulberry, now you're talking..........

cupcakes · 20/02/2006 22:10

Oh don't! Mulberry... I would do a lot of things for a Mulberry. Still have to go and stroke them when I'm in House of Fraser.
Wanted to call dog Mulberry but nobody would let me.

And it's so sad because I'm never going to own one.

I've got one,can't remember which one but it's an across the body one with pocket for phone.Cost about 70quid I think.I like it but it's too small for my needs at the moment so have bought a canvas bag that I can fit all my shot in.

they don't make one big enough for me

No Mulberry for me either cupcakes Went out for dinner with friends last week and one girl had one. I kept staring at it and had to stroke it.

Drool..........

But Radley bags are just gross. I'm sorry, but apple green? I have a handbag fetish but these are disturbing me.......

good mate of mine is a manager for the Radley department at the Downtown in Grantham. Says people come in and buy them like crazy when the big sale is on and then resell them on ebay.

i've only got one Radley bag. It's big enough to carry my bits and pieces plus a spare nappy, wipes, babyfood & weaning spoon.

brimfull · 20/02/2006 22:17

very nice...but how big is it?

I love the Blenheim - it's a mini Roxanne. But not that one. Apart from the colour it is a fake - the side straps dangling out the top should be the undied interior leather all the way to the ends - not the pink exterior leather.
I know this as I am bitter having bought a fake Roxanne off ebay. Luckily one of the rivets came off (although I had realised it was fake before this) and the seller refunded it immediatly.

Northerner · 20/02/2006 22:18

Pink one is nice MT.

I have some lovely pink Gap bags. But if I'm getting an expensive leather bag I want it to look expensive!

meggmoo · 20/02/2006 22:20

I LOVE them. But most people I know think they are naff.
