Recommend me a handbag

[AntoinetteCosway]

I have a beautiful dark tan Coach bag that I use every day but it doesn't fit my diary which is driving me crazy. I need a bigger bag! I'm skint at the mo but willing to save in order to get something of similarly good quality. I'd say £250 would probably have to be my max. I prefer neutral colours that can go with everything and I don't mind whether it's structured or not as long as it's not tooooo heavy. Any ideas? TIA!

I have this by Oushka and I love it

That is lovely-and quite a bargain too...

Another vote here for oushka bags! I got one off eBay and it's lovely. Teensy bit heavy (although may just be the one I've got) and the lining is really pretty too.

Browse TK Maxx online and instore

these Peony & Moore ones look gorgeous.. got the Mariella but like the soft leather on this one..

I got this bag from Banana Republic on Saturday. Mine is a lovely mustard yellow pebbly leather and was only £37.49! (They had 25% extra off all sale)

I went to the Regent Street store, they had loads of larger 'work' bags reduced. I'm really impressed with their bags, all real leather, great quality/detailing and lined with lots of pockets (one even had a padded inner pocket for iPad etc)

Oh wow, I love everything on that Peony and Moore site! Like the BR one too...

here's the one with the padded laptop pocket

MooMin that's brilliant-absolutely perfect. I want the black (not in the sale of course-dammit!) or the beige-y colour I think. Thanks so much!

Report back if you get hold of one please?

Will do!

Have ordered the yellowy-cream one that's on sale on the UK website-so was the black one but I was taken by the cream! It's down to £89.99 and I also got 15% off through signing up for emails, 7% cash back through Quidco and free delivery! All told it'll be just over £70. I can't wait for it to arrive!

Fab! Fingers crossed it fits the bill!

It's arrived (that was quick!) and is gorgeous-massive in that it has a slot for a laptop plus loads of other pockets and is really deep but hangs nicely and doesn't feel like I'm lugging around a suitcase! Am so chuffed. Thanks again MooMinCow!
