Ok - unlike lots of mners (it seems) I can't afford hundreds on a handbag, but I'm still choosy and cannot entertain pleather. It has to be real leather or me no likey.
My handbags MUST be cross body, as I cannot be bothered to hoik shoulder bags up all the time,and I like having my hands free.
I spotted this in Markies.
What do we think?

Yes that handbag is lovely but still over my budget. I will hope its still there in a couple of months.

I had a £50 voucher from Christmas to spend, so that helped make my mind up.

I've been looking for a bag for 5 years. I have bought a couple of gorgeous bags before, but shoulder bags, and I just can't be doing with them at all. I thought I'd grow into one because other people seem to manage, but no. Pain the arse. Hoik hoik hoik. I think I'm a marcher, a stomper....I walk wrong for a shoulder bag.

I have staked out TKMaxx like nobody's business, but nada. I'm super picky, even though I'm skint.

Well pleased to find this with a voucher to spend. This has made my month!

If that's a bit pitiful, I apologise, but pretties for pictish are rare. Wink

S alright - just saying like. All the bags I ever want are way out of my league.

I nearly caved a fortnight ago and bought a canvas satchel. So glad I held out! Lol!
