Cross body bag - help me decide!

Ruth2009 · 04/09/2021 22:25

I'm wanting a small-ish bag with detachable straps that I could use day or evening.
I've seen some I like but can't decide on colour of the bag and pattern of the strap, there's so many to choose from.
I'd like. A different colour than black as I always choose black everything.

I actually like the blue better in absolute terms, but I think the silver (which is still nice) would go with more colours.

Have a look at these too - they are a very good price and come in lots of different colours. I bought a different style of red bag from the same brand through eBay, but liked it so much that I found their own site and am now coveting this style in several of the colours.

I like the pompom one
I'd definitely buy that if it didn't have the gold zip and metal parts

For me would be the silver one + the rainbow strap. You'd have tonnes of options then. I might put that on my Christmas list!

Thanks, I love them all, I still haven't decided which one to get, there are just so many to choose from...

Definitely silver with the black and white strap, it looks great and will work well for evening too.

I think the pompom is not as versatile and the blue and pink combo are too limiting to be versatile, whereas the silver bag will be eye-catching on many an outfit as well as looking good by itself.

I feel like this thread is an ad... I've seen these bags come up loads on Facebook

Ruth2009 · 05/09/2021 16:21

I am leaning towards the silver one, think I'm going to go for that one, if I ask dh for an opinion he just says get what you like Grin
Definitely not an ad! Although I am getting a lot of pop ups of these bags since I started looking at them!

I was browsing the Pom Pom London site after you sent the link, and saw they sell real fur Angry

TuftyRusty · 05/09/2021 16:26

Although to be fair I don’t buy leather or fur, so either are off putting personally.

I found a small company on Instagram and bought one of their leather bags, gorgeous quality and with detachable straps, they do a lot of different straps

I have the Lily Teal which I blimming love and I got another 2 straps for it

Infact Harrison Wood had bags identical to your second link but for £40 rather than £85!

Thanks, I will definitely get one from that website, they are much cheaper and look just the same.
