i have a gorgeous bright yellow big bag thingy for all the dd's stuff

and a small pink thing from tesco when dont have the girls with me therefore have about 2 tons less stuff to carry around

would like a white one but they all seem tacky (or a million pounds)

Have been out today showing off my new summer handbag, sad but true - I couldn't wait. It was joyful emptying the winter one and transferring the few items that I really need into the summer one. I bought it from ASOS in the sale for only £6! its white and lovely. Don't want to spend a fortune as they get ruined and so I can chuck at the end of each season and get a new one - yipee.

I brought the fab yellow bag from Topshop yesterday, along with some red shoes from New Look (bargain only £25 and virtually the same as £45 ones in faith). Now just need the orange bag and i'll look like i'm right into summer.

Obviously I wont wear them all at the same time a la Chantelle :)

Frenchgirl · 07/06/2006 10:59

pmsl at 'flat' cod
what on earth do you put in your handbag that wouldn't fit in there?
it's simply gorgeous

Snafu · 07/06/2006 11:41

In honour of this thread I have just bought the Marseilles bag from Accessorize - don't expect it will meet with fishy approval though Grin

It is very summery and happy.

A handbag????

I do have one (black leather, v dull) which I use when pretending to be a grownup, eg at interviews. The whole concept of summer and winter handbags has me reeling Shock

PrincessPeaHead · 07/06/2006 12:01

oh yes, several weeks ago mdear

LadyCodofCOdford · 07/06/2006 12:02

love that orange pph

PrincessPeaHead · 07/06/2006 12:08

god just read the whole thread. can't believe you all use the same handbag all year round, DULL. For summer I have a bright orange midsized one for most days, a canvas orla keirly large shoulder bag which I use as a nappy bag, and a big plastic bucket bag for beach trips and outings when I need to take masses of crap with me, some of which may leak.
In winter I have bags mostly in shades of brown or black, depending on what I'm wearing (CAN'T wear a black bag if dressed in brown - just impossible. Like wearing knickers that don't match the bra - makes me feel uncomfortable!)

You may all laugh and point fingers now
