... but I can't.

How close could I get though, budget being around £200. It must be black, leather, spacious, not too structured (as in rigid), no obvious labelling and no bling.

Keep your eye on Net a Porter and My Wardrobe. They often have sales on and Marc by Marc Jacobs do similar styles to that. Full price they're circa £400

The Lauren is as nice as the Prada imo

TwoInTheMourning · 25/08/2014 09:04

I do agree the Lauren is beautiful but it is too structured for me, looks too much like a briefcase. I have taken a look at Marc Jacobs handbags and they're gorgeous, only a bit over budget! Smile

Sorry for non fancy links, I'm on my phone

www.harveynichols.com/97576-tribeca-black-grained-leather-tote/ this DKNY one is similar and grained leather like the prada.

I have a similar one from DKNY, athough mine is more slouchy and the leather is top quality, equal to any other top designer in my opinion. It's a bit like this one www.houseoffraser.co.uk/DKNY+Tribeca+black+large+hobo+bag/200897043,default,pd.html

HelpMe thanks!!! So far that's my favourite bag from what's been linked here!!!! I wasn't really considering MK because it just seems to be everywhere at the moment and the logo irritates me, but I guess it could be removed.... Hmmmm.........

Thanks you everyone who's linked to other bags. The ones from OtherStories and the OutNet are all too small although some of them are very nice indeed.

I wish I could afford this bag...

Halston one def, reminicent of Celine but not so £££

madammecholet · 25/08/2014 15:13

Don't like the bling on DVF & Minkoff one just a bit non descript. Halton one looks £££ and I love the elegance of it..

TwoInTheMourning · 25/08/2014 15:17

Hi madammecholet, thank you. It is the one I prefer also, just not sure if it's a little small. I also can't find anywhere that sells it and I'd love to see reviews and ideally a photo of a model wearing it. I don't ask for much do I?Grin

Halston one is Ver structured tho... I think i'd prefer the Lauren out of the 2 tbh as it looks squishier.
