Smart, fashionable every day bag?!

[Booksandwine80]

Good morning!

With my daughter starting school this year I really need to ditch the childish rucksack I carry everywhere

Would love some suggestions of a smart but fashionable every day bag-possibly a leather rucksack but don’t mind really. I no longer need to carry packets of wipes and spare pants around with me!

Help me get my “pre mum” style back

Ooh-can probably spend up to around £50, maybe a bit more for the ultimate bag!

Have a look at Mia Tui bags online 😀

@ChrisPriss they look lovely, thanks!

TK Maxx. I always manage to find the bag I need (or want) in there.

I get mine from Next.
There’s always a good choice and they last.
I will only buy one that has a zip, I won’t use bags that are open.

Following as I'm after the same.

I'll either fall back on a Longchamp Le Pliage as I keep coming back to them.

Although just found this online and really like the look of it:

I want something that isn't too smart, will deal with my "throw it around" bag treatment but still is a nice looking bag.

And must have a zip!

I bought a Mia Tui but sent it bag. Felt too much like a baby changing bag to me.

I quite like the radley backpacks.

So this is the one I bought, bonus was it was £49 instead of £69
