OK, following on from 'Bag Recommendations for £900 thread', I took the 'bag by the handles' and started a bag lovers thread. This is not a 'OMG why would you spend that amount on a bag' thread, its purely a lust thread.

We look, we lust, we love, we discuss. Grin

My first offering the new Gucci Lady Tassel in mandarin. Love this...

I actually think this thread will be good for me, might force me to swap my bags more often ;) I'm so lazy I tend to use the same one for weeks...

cranagh it's a fab colour! it goes with everything! I do regret a little bit that I didn't get the bigger size, but it did mean I had to get a smaller purse to fit in it ;)

santamarianovella · 27/08/2014 20:01

I've worn black WOC today, very practical.

karbea I love the colour of your small marcie,

Karbea · 27/08/2014 20:05

It's the small.
It depends, I've a smaller purse, I can't carry much makeup, or a hairbrush etc, but keys, a few poo bags and dog treats are fine.

LinusDKD · 27/08/2014 20:05

Oooh santa a mum at DD's nursery was wearing a red WOC today. I nearly ripped it off her! Grin

karbea I also wear my bags months on end, I really need to change them more.

MarshaBrady · 27/08/2014 20:08

I wear it out then replace. Should probably get more.

Karbea it is a lovely colour.

BecauseIsaidS0 · 27/08/2014 20:19

Sigh...I went window shopping for bags and now I want a Givenchy Nightingale so badly! Might start dropping hints to DH for Christmas Grin

Grin linus I saw a navy one in caviar< very rare> made me think of you instantly, I think it's a good introduction to Chanel bags, very light and surprisingly I can fit most things but not my wallet obv,

Topazandpearl · 27/08/2014 20:37

Can I join in with a Radley?? It doesn't have a dog hanging if that helps. There is a little gold dog though (but that's ok coz I like dogs). It is probably my most used bag. It is a good size, nice and slouchy and can go cross-body. Despite being nearly three years old, it is still in great condition.

It is also my bench-mark bag in terms of quality - I don't think I would buy anything that wasn't at least as nice, even if it was quite a lot cheaper. More expensive bags have to be that much nicer to be worth it.

santa DM bought one recently (as you know Wink ) and when I was admiring it she offered to buy me one for Christmas. Shock

But when I said I prefer the caviar leather she said that she hates it so that's me told. Guess it's going to be a jumper for Christmas from DM. Grin

Lovely bag because.

Topazandpearl · 27/08/2014 20:38

PS that was my bag today.

santamarianovella · 27/08/2014 20:53

Take back what you said linus and apologise to your mum Grin

Both leathers are gorgeous, and it's a matter of personal preference,
But you can't beat black caviar with GHW, Smile

MrsCampbellBlack · 27/08/2014 20:59

I prefer caviar as the lambskin although gorgeous just doesn't look very hardy.

LinusDKD · 27/08/2014 21:00

No no, no gold hardware (if that's what you meant)!

At least that's one thing DM and I agree on, white gold/silver hardware all the way! Smile

Lovely bag topaz, Radley has really upped their game these last few years.

Karbea · 27/08/2014 21:06

I think the gold looks more classic.

aubreye · 27/08/2014 21:10

Not sure how to link from iPhone but look on the Longchamp website, new arrivals. I'm desperate for the Roseau Héritage bag in Eb

aubreye · 27/08/2014 21:11

Accidently pressed post message Angry. I want it in Ebony and it's £650 DH has been teasing me about it since I've seen it and his mother even said it's a christmas present possibility. As if!!!

aubreye · 27/08/2014 21:11

Accidentally*

santamarianovella · 27/08/2014 21:21

Noo! linus caviar is meant to be with gold hardware, as lamb skin is meant to be with silver hardware, it's just how the universe works!

LinusDKD · 27/08/2014 21:26

Universe Shmuniverse! I want caviar leather with silver hardware!

LinusDKD · 27/08/2014 21:29

Lovely Longchamp btw aubreye

ThisBitchIsResting · 27/08/2014 21:34

So many beautiful bags Smile

I'm depressed a little as I fell in love with the Gucci Disco last spring, and tried to not buy any clothes for a whole year to afford it and failed miserably. And now about 4 MNers since have bought it! But I shall try not to be bench like about it. It's hard though when you have champagne taste on a lemonade budget. Maybe one day my family will have the disposable income that so many of you are lucky to have, for now it's all about property and children, dammit. One day, one day.

santamarianovella · 27/08/2014 21:35

Calm down Grin, they all look great tbh,
I might get a medium caviar flab in black leather with GHW just to spite you though Grin

It'll get better, ThisBitchIsResting. Pesky kids are expensive! I didn't keep my disco, I went off the big G logo.
