Looking for a Crossbody bag

[TheDarrellRivers]

I would like to find a crossbody bag that is on the larger side to fit all the junk that I carry around with me on a daily basis.
Bigger than an Amberley Satchel or large Lottie.
I need something that fastens securely, flap or zip.
Something other than black or brown.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!

Is anyone else reeling at the thought of spending £1000 on a bag??

Or is it just me??

Nope! Me too...... 😬

I need something similar but couldn't bare to spend more than about £40 on a bag ( gulps at thought of spending 1k...)

I ended up with this one, which I am really pleased with. (Mulberry Hampstead)
It’s a little different than my spec, but I love it. It fits everything in, without going into large bag territory.

To those not understanding spending £££s on a bag, I understand! Each to their own. I have a very small handbag collection, I look after them very well, and they bring me a little bit of joy each time I use them.

It doesn’t look expensive

Love it @TheDarrellRivers! If you can afford it and it make you happy then enjoy 😊 in such a horrible couple of years think we should all take a little bit of happiness and excitement wherever we can find it

@Justonemoreepisode Thanks, I couldn't agree more!

Aspinal bags

Absolutely!

@TheDarrellRivers I love your bag, lovely choice ☺️

If you can afford it then go for it. I couldn't afford a mulberry but have a lovely all saints bag I bought in the sale last winter and I love it.

Just wish I left the house more to actually use it!

@TheDarrellRivers Absolutely love it!!

Thanks for coming back to tell us-very satisfying to get the happy ending!

@NaughtyNata Thank you, I'm older now and in a position where I'm able to save up & treat myself once in a while, and I do enjoy a nice bag
:)
Glad you like your All Saints bag, I bought a leather jacket for my daughter from there for her birthday (upon the recommendation of Mumsnetters!) & it's really lovely quality.

@mumsiedarlingrevolta

Hehe, yes, love a happy ending in Style & Beauty!

i was going to suggest Orla Kiely - who has upped her crossbody bag game a bit since scaling down. but with a budget like that go for a Mulberry?! (Orla Kiely is my go to for a smart bag, but the canvas ones are also practical and mum proof)

aaand that’ll teach me to assume the thread hasn’t been resolved love your Mulberry OP!

@snackodactyl

Thank you :)

I’ve done it. You get what you pay for.

@TheDarrellRivers agree on the quality of the leather jackets- I've managed to buy two (the cargo and the Dalby) when they've had 30% off and they are fantastic quality.

God I love leather, I'd struggle with going vegan because of my love of boots/handbags/leather jackets!

@NaughtyNata I understand exactly what you mean - it's such a fantastic material that becomes more beautiful with age IMO. Not a fan of pleather!!
