New handbag suggestions

I have come in to a small sum of money (less than €600) and I thought I'd treat myself to a new handbag.

I like bags that can go over my shoulder or cross body but they must have a zip closure if at all possible.

If you had that amount of money, what handbag would you buy (or would you buy something else entirely)?

If I came to that amount I think I'd spread it across a few different pieces tbh.

100 on takeaways.. cause.. takeaways. 😊

£200 on bag, £100 on a nice jumper or 2 and some new boots / trainers.

And any spare... Greggs..

I think you can see my priorities are Gregg's and takeaways. 🤪

I could do the new trainers or new boots but I got myself into a bit of a rut with working from home and using a backpack to carry all my stuff in and I thought I'd like a handbag for a change.

I've seen a few on that Osprey's website so I'll have another look to see if there is anything that grabs my attention more.

I was thinking of getting a necklace if I don't see a bag I particularly like.

I really like the Osprey London Bags.
I can't justify buying one, but they look beautiful 🤩

There was a nother thread not long ago about hand bags and the like. I suggested on there to make a day of it, and I don't see why that same idea wouldn't work for you.

If you live near a big city, hop a train and have a day out, nose around the bag shops and necklaces and shoes.. have a coffee and a lunch. Maybe you'll see a bag you fall in love with and in person you can feel it, fondle it, hold it, caress it.. 😊

And last time I had a couple hundred to spend I felt like Julia Roberts upping Richard Geres credit card bill.. lol x

I just bought the Osprey Wanderer tote. It's lovely. My daughter and her friends were all over it, apparently it's 'the' bag at their school at the moment! I've bought it in a different colour for Daughter and her best friend for Christmas.
