Which bag is nicer?

[EdenFlower]

I'm looking for a bag fro a city break abroad that's going to work from day to night. Would like a camel or beige colour. So far have come up with these two- which do you like best?

this
or
this

Open to other suggestions please! Looking to spend between £200-£300ish

Neither are my style, but I prefer the first one

Second one is a bit frumpy in my opinion

The Coach one . Have a good break

R&B has more going for it.

You can fat a Zara version of the R&B one which is what I’d do for a fashiony / non classic bag

APC have some bags in your price range which are nicer. Out the two Coach but not that colour.

The coach one.

Would love to see something your style- not sure I really have a set style so open to other ideas :-)

I prefer the first

What would you class as a classic bag?

I prefer the style of the first bag (hate the colour, sorry!).
TKMaxx is brilliant for handbags of all price ranges.

No I meant to say I prefer the second one, sorry!

The first one. Hate the second one.

Love the R&B.
The Coach looks a little drab and is definitely daytime.

I've had a look at APC but couldn't find anything I thought was as nice in the price range- I love the Grace bag but even the small is almost £600

Any good?

Defitely the coach one, its lovely.

The first one is more stylish IMO. Second one is kinda boring.

Thanks for the suggestion- I really like Coach bags as they are good quality for the money- that one is a bit too dark coloured though.

Not going away until Easter so was was looking for a lighter colour to lift my outfits and be a bit more spring-like and my jackets I''m planning to wear are black, red and camel.

I know they are not high end brands because I can't stretch my budget to that, but thought a nice quality leather bag was a better choice than something plastic from Zara.

They're both a bit small for me. I like the colour you're looking at though.

What about a Kurt Geiger Kensington?
Sorry I can't do links.

this one?
I like that it has a top handle!

Prefer a saddle bag type to a quilted so would go for the Coach myself

I love the Coach bag in your original link. Am also a massive fan of their quality

Yes thank you for doing the link.
I have a small KG Kensington in black and I love the leather.
I am going to buy the next size up as mine is a wee bit small since I changed my phone.
🤞they will have a % off at some stage.

Second! X
