OK all you brilliant finders of the perfect thing...

My dd needs a particular bag for school. It has to be big enough for a mobile and a purse but small enough not to be a nuisance. It has to be strong and have a long strap so that she can wear it slung across both shoulders. It has to be plain - preferably black or blue. I saw one in a christmas catalogue that was basically a mobile phone case with some extra pockets but I haven't seen it since. Any ideas?

no-one?

leather?
fabric?
budget?

how old is she?

guess this is what you saw at Christmas

this is quite cool too

It was like that only leather. Thank you - I'll shoe her that one. Like the round one!

She's 12.

Don't mind spending 25 quidish on a good strong one - she's been through two cheaper oness since September.

I'd quite like leather or perhaps microfibre.

You are a genius!

too pricey?

They do it in a couple of colours, I have one and it's great on a night out as fits in all the essentials

Was in Marks today and saw a few which might do, two on here

The one with the metallic trim looked quite funky in RL

Thank you all - she went shopping after school yesterday and bought something she loves but which I think is completely hideous from TopShop. So the problem is shelved for the month or so this one's going to last!
