Sorry, another 'which bag?' thread

I've been looking for a small/medium hobo style bag for a while. I didn't particularly set out for grey but have narrowed it down to these two?

Number one - Peony and Moore:

And number two - Whistles:

There's quite a big price difference too....over you to MNers! Smile

An UPDATE:

I did get both to compare. Decided agains the P&M one quite quickly - the colour was a bit wishy washy and just didn't like it. The Whistles one however is lovely.

But... now I have another dilemma! I thought maybe navy is a good colour and would look good against brown and tan jackets. So looking again on P&M website I found this bag:

Which is also really lovely! Nice shape and size for me, not too big not too small and lovely colour.

So now I am torn between navy P&M and the grey Whistles one!

Whistles still!

GingerLDN · 13/03/2015 10:47

The first one is too mumsy

HelpMeGetOutOfHere · 13/03/2015 13:31

still the whistles one.

Neither - hobo bags just end up full of stuff you can't find in the dark abyss.

margaritasbythesea · 13/03/2015 13:53

Primal Lass - think that it true. I don't think I will buy another. I can never find a damn thing in mine.

My abandoned hobo bag is full of cast-off babybel wax, straws from juice cartons and sandy-fluff. Blush

Ah but you see I keep quite a tidy bag Smile Purse, phone, keys, hand gel, 2 make up items and that's it.

So, have you chosen? Or are you (whispers) going to keep both?!

Sunbeam18 · 14/03/2015 22:19

There's a Whistles promotion on until Sunday (tomorrow), 25% off. It's in connection with Grazia so you might need to buy a copy or get a code. Quick! The Whistles bag is way nicer, btw Grin

sunbeam I did buy the whistles one with the grazia promotion, it's a great saving Smile

I am very tempted to keep both the whistles one and the navy P&M one Blush. They are very different colours and I'd use both desperately trying to justify it
