Alternative to Kipling

[Onefootforward1]

I have a Kipling Gabbie which i love everything about except the way it looks. It’s been so practical with the compartments and i love how lightweight it is. However, i have started a new job and everyone has really fashionable bags but i find most handbags really heavy and i have a shoulder problem.

Can anyone suggest a lightweight crossbody bag that is also slightly fashionable?

Lots of suggestions on this thread www.mumsnet.com/Talk/style_and_beauty/3643154-Cross-Body-Bag-for-Holiday

Try the Spirit brand, similar to Kipling, but more stylish. I have recently bought the satchel style, it’s got lots of easy to get to pockets and is very light.

Thanks. I’ll have a look at Spirit and the other thread.

Those spirit bags look good for travel and day trips, good prices too. I wonder how hardwearing theyare.

I prefer Kipling to Spirit tbh.

I am the same as you OP, shoulder problems force me to mainly use Kipling as they're so light. When I do use a different bag I really feel it! Fortunately I don't need to be fancy too often.
