Are Cath Kidston Bags Naff Now?

[YesAnastasia]

I purchased my first today because I always liked most of them (esp oilcloth) but never got around to it.

Now they're everywhere but I still like them - are they too popular & recognisable now?

I'm not a huge fan of CK stuff but more power to you if you like it - get stuff you like and enjoy wearing, not stuff people on the internet approve of. I like more geometric type prints, if CK did an Atomic Era type print in an oilcloth bag I'd get it! I can't deny the wipe clean factor is very handy.

Darn it! The London Bus changing bag will be mine!!!!

I think Cath K suits children, teens & young adults but look mumsy and jaded on grown women (every school mum at my school seems to have a CK bag). That's obviously just my personal opinion though so you can buy and wear whatever you like!

I got an oil cloth bag from a wee welsh company called Eleanor's Attic. It is cross body too, which is v handy with two small DC to manage! I have only seen one other bag by the same designer, on a woman in a service station in Scotland last week, of all places! Anyway, they are nice bags, and I get a lot of people telling me they like it.

They are, and have always been, totally naff.
