This is it. My last ditch attempt to find a tan leather shoulder bag big enough to fit an A4 folder in. Any takers?

[tethersjinglebellend]

It's like an endless quest.

I think I've found it, then, like a mirage in the desert, it disappears, or is too small, or too expensive, or not really any good at all.

I have almost bought:

This one- handles not long enough to fit on shoulder, wrong colour

This one- not quite big enough by the looks of it

I love the shape of the above two. it must be:

-a shoulder bag which will fit under my arm not drop to my hip/cross body

-tan leather

-closeable

-under £150

PLEASE HELP ME.

I can't go on like this. THESE are the sales which will yield The Bag, I know it.

I'm having link issues as on phone
www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B009KXASEQ

Out of stock there but on sale on debenhams website. Has short handles and detachable longer one which you can adjust

Cambridge Satchel?

Mia Tui Amelie? (or any of their bigger designs). Made with kids stuff in mind, but smart enough that you'd never know.

Mimi berry Arthur....? The sale will start soon so price will probably reduce a wee bit. Would be a forever bag, the leather she uses is amazing quality.

I got one of these for Christmas it fits a file.

this any good . . .?

Any good? I have a Rowallan bag from TK maxx and it's lovely quality. Not the most cutting edge but a good neutral bag IYSWIM

Oooh, replies, thanks

Brighthair, thanks- not keen on that one, sorry. I think it's the label and the stitching.

swooosh- I don't like satchels- I want something to sit under my arm rather than on my hip IYSWIM. They also remind me of the finger of fudge advert from when I was a kid

RubbishCracker- sorry, don't like that one either. I really hate white stitching. Yes, I do realise how this makes me sound. Thanks for trying.

Shirley- I really liked the mimi berry Beau, but they are long gone- not very keen on the Arthur, let alone for that price/ I want something a bit more rigid I think.

Frosty, the link's taking me to the homepage...?

Sorry for being so fussy. Don't give up on me!

nowrinkles thanks, but that one is v. expensive and i'm not keen on slouchy. Do they have shops or are they just online do you know?

fossil, I don't love that but a good price. I don't think it's quite big enough.

Thanks to all your links, I now think I really want that saddle bag shape actually. I think.

try again

Ah, sorry Frosty- I am not keen on the shape or the pattern. Thanks though.

How about nat & nin Angie? Or still a wee bit slouchy?

I like that!

Shite, it's expensive... but DD1 is called Angie, so maybe it's fate... come to think of it, DD2 is called Shirley so it's all a bit spooky

Yay!! tis deffo meant to be with weird name stuff like that (and good names!).
Maybe they'll have a sale in January? Might be worth waiting a week or so... I really want one of their purses but have been umming and ahhing, might be tempted if they reduce a little bit.

Sounds like you're sorted but a few cheaper options here

Banana republic market tote.

Sorry on phone and therefore can't do links.

Thanks Ceecee and Maraki- I think the Angie one that Shirley linked to is The One

Shirley, do they usually have a sale? A bag named after DD1, recommended by someone with the same name as DD2, from a company based round the corner from where DP is from HAS to be the bag I'm looking for

What about this one?

I have a large tan leather Zara bag that would easily fit one! I love it

I have a nat and Nin Lola and recommend them also.

Are they durable, polyhymnia?

I want to order it, but not sure to whether to wait a week for a discount... could only justify paying full price if it was really strong. Or something.

Ah bollocks, I'm getting it.

Thanks Shirley!

I am having the exact same problem as you!
I been looking for a nice brown, plain shoulder bag that stays on your shoulder!
I'm still looking but I did see this earlier, which I like.
