Talk me in or out of buying this bag please I thank you kindly

[oliveoil]

a) I am looking for a purse but saw this and it is fab, lots of room, squishy leather

b) I need another bag like a hole in the head and need a purse not a bag fgs

to buy or not to buy that is the q

here, £40 from £90

buy it - taste is subjective.

esp. on mumsnet!

I've bought some gorg bags from Debenhams before.

Debs

I think Red Herring are quite a nice range that Debs carry

I saw this purse today in M&S and it is a possibility but maybe a tad boring?

I have got about 5 debenhams bags, lovely

John Rocca one always gets comments and was about £30

snap binkleandflip!

OO - you can buy something with a LOT more WOW factor than that Oasis one.

I love a bag me. I like them to be big, bold and faBULOUS.

my girls would pick all the gems off within 5 mins

That M&S purse is okaaaay, but the black one with white stitching i linked to is lovley and I've held it and it's v soft and has great layout. Really don't know why I didn't buy it myself.

hmmmmmm

OO - you have five bags from debenhams already.

You have bag issues lady.

Step away from the bags.

I have LOADS of bags. I like bags more than shoes I think.

you sound like dh

Havent you bought it yet??????

Thomcat, waht is the "layout" of the soft M&S purse? Presume you meant the Autograph one?

Well I was ready to say "a girl can never have too many handbags" ive got tons and just keep buying, but tbh I dont think its anything special for £40. Do you think perhaps its that weird thing which comes over us when we see a money off sign - I used to buy loads of things in sales which I wouldnt normally.

Panacotta - yes the autograph one.
It was a while ago and can't recall it enough to describe to you now. I just know that I'm really funny about layout or purses. I hate too many zips, buttons, compartments and I know I looked at this one and thought - ohhhh perfect. Sorry to be useless!

oh I am the same TC

lol

was in House Of Fraser really studying them all and getting in everyone's way

I've had the same purse for 10 years and want a new one but never found one that has the right layout, which is why I don't get why I didn't buy the M&S one.

Oh no, that bag looks like it should be sliding off the shoulder of a skinny, chain-smoking teenage chavette.

Convinced?

I think Expat has summed the bag up nicely

expat also wears crocs iirc

Buy it. You can never have too many bags or shoes or books.

I don't anymore. As slippers only.

That's bag belongs on a girl standing outside the Sheriff Court puffing on a Lambert&Butler waiting for her yob in shining trackies to re-emerge.

oh it does not

it is lovely

I stand firm in my good taste and may just buy it to spite you all

Sorry sorry RTFQ

What I meant, of course, was DO NOT BUY THIS BAG. IT IS UTTERLY GROSS. ARE YOU DEMENTED, WOMAN?

i got an ace purse from jigsaw last week. but their website is shite so can't link. they had them in silver..........
