Honest opinions on this bag?

If you're not happy about clicking links these days, it's the Anthropologie Mae Woven Hobo.

I like it, but I haven't had the best taste in the past, and I'm very cautious about anything that isn't safe black or brown! What do you think?

It's nice, but I thought it was raffia too on first sight. It was only when u saw the price and checked the details I saw it's leather.

I do really like the color, however it wouldn't be very versatile for everyday use.

Chillyegg · 04/09/2015 19:41

Erm I like the colour material not so much

Stepawayfromthezebras · 04/09/2015 19:49

I absolutely love it, I always gravitate towards green bags and find them very versatile

catyloopylou · 04/09/2015 19:50

Gorgeous.

AuroraTeagarden · 04/09/2015 20:46

Love that bag! Love that colour - I was half expecting neon pink or bright orange but green is very accommodating...

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/09/2015 20:48

Sorry but I really don't like it, and it's very expensive. Up to you though!

MabelSideswipe · 04/09/2015 20:52

I like it. I would worry it would catch on something and the weaving start looking shabby though.

LittleRedSparkle · 04/09/2015 20:56

its ok - not worth £218 though

(but then i find it hard to spend that much on a handbag...)

BelindaBagwash · 04/09/2015 20:57

I can't imagine spending that much on a bag!!

Not my taste at all but each to their own

Verbena37 · 04/09/2015 21:01

I like it.....looks good for autumn.
It's leather.
I like its slouchy ness.
It's from Anthropologie.....cool.

RachelZoe · 04/09/2015 21:04

Not for me, I think you can get something a lot nicer and more practical for £218.00, Green is not an "everyday bag" color. If it's just a fun bag for now and again, go for it, if not, I would reconsider.

OneofTHOSEWomen · 04/09/2015 21:05

Lovely!

RingDownRingUp · 04/09/2015 21:07

Love it!

Queenbean · 04/09/2015 21:09

I hate it, sorry, i think it looks like a real mummy bag

And looks much cheaper than it is

OooooohMissDiane · 04/09/2015 21:09

Love it.

OooooohMissDiane · 04/09/2015 21:11

To be as slouchy I'll bet it's really soft leather. Picture probably doesn't do it justice.

AnotherTimeMaybe · 04/09/2015 21:11

Stunning!
Jealous!

burnishedsilver · 04/09/2015 21:39

It's nice but it's not £218 worth of nice.

Jackie0 · 04/09/2015 21:44

Beautiful and a bargain, love it.

orlakielyimnot · 04/09/2015 21:58

Lovely! And that green is, imo, v versatile, as much as dar brown blue and black are.

BlahBlahUsername · 04/09/2015 22:32

Very divided opinions then! It's more money than I would usually spend on a bag tbh, but my high street bags never seem to last long, so I thought I'd look to spend more on quality. That said, I am now worried about the unraveling potential! I might order it and see how it looks in the flesh.

If anyone can recommend anything else in the 'green slouchy bag' genre, please share!

Really not a fan of the colour and the size seems strange, but I hate mid sized bags!

BlahBlahUsername · 04/09/2015 22:46

Oh, no the size is perfect for me. I'm the other way - I don't like small or very large bags!

TheFormidableMrsC · 04/09/2015 22:54

Oh oh oh! I love it! Beautiful green! I love green Smile. Buy it. It will go with everything (would advise not mixing with red at Christmas time) and has a very "Balenciaga" feel to it at a fraction of the price. Marvellous!
