Cross-body bag - perfect in every way. I want, but soooo overpriced....

Isn't it?

Saw it by chance in store yesterday. It is sooo clever. In the last image you can see that it has three compartments - two outside zipped ones, and an inner, security one with a magnet/press stud in which my wallet fits perfectly. Also, the adjustable strap comes off and turns it into a really lovely clutch (which I also need). The matt gold hardware is lovely and it is quite plain, except for a discreet logo, which I dont mind.

But it is 295 in store (and 310 online, which in itself has annoyed me)!

Anyone seen anything halfway similar? Even at 195 I could justify it....

Yep - that bag is well deserved!

Ok, so now the bag looks frumpy against Katester's...

I want stylish AND practical! Too much to ask?

Keep searching - the perfect bag will be out there Smile

Now I'm saving hard for my next one....here. It is going to take quite a while though!!

I like the fossil one. Must admit I'm a bit meh about some of their designs but some of them are really lovely.... And if you are near an outlet you can get at very good price . I do like the R and Bromley one too. You can never ever have too many handbags ..... They always fit !

katester I ADORE that one you're saving for!

Pressed post too soon!
Any ideas on where to get a cheaper version that size? The others are nice but a bit too small.

Sorry Helga I don't Sad

I'm saving £2 pound coins in a jar that you have to break to open it - I will buy that gorgeous bag when it is full although at the rate I'm going it could be next year lol Grin

Helga it might be worth looking in TKMaxx if you are fairly flexible on colour, but it can be very hit and miss.

I love Nat & Nin bags.
