What was your last bag purchase?

[happytobemrsg]

Just for fun (& inspiration as I’m looking for a new work bag!).

My last purchase was the ubiquitous Uniqlo bag in off white corduroy. Aside from a black leather phone bag from The White Company, this is my most used bag at the moment.

I bought this little Kate Sheridan bag a few months ago. I'm enjoying the downsizing. There's just room for phone, keys, cards, a tissue, lip balm, and a tiny hand cream!

Raffia/straw tote bag from Holland Cooper.

Hello Kitty packable shopper 😂

Totem t lock I think

3 years ago I bought a second hand Coccinelle rigid leather handbag which seems to be on trend still.

Most of my bags are the same design from Reisenthel and that includes sports, weekend, crossbody wash bag, folding shoppers and Ryanair underseat backpack.

I was given a Hervé Chapelier canvas bag (€€) which I mistook for a beauty brand giveaway

Uniqlo in cord about 18 months ago.
I have a summer uniqlo and winter one and for the first time in my life am happy with my bags.

I’ve just ordered the Nordace Sienna cross body bag in purple for the summer. I don’t usually pay very much for bags and have decided it’s a false economy. anyway, I ama sucker for purple and pockets.

A very ugly, loud, tropical flowery backpack with many pockets and big gold zips from TK Maxx. I needed a fairly pickpocket proof bag for an overseas trip. It was £6.99!

Don’t use handbags normally. Can’t recall the last proper one I bought. My husband bought me a leather satchel in 1990.

This off EBay. Love it.

This?

A Kipling laptop bag, much nicer and more understated, than their standard bags (which I wouldn't be seen dead with). I wanted a lighter bag for my laptop as my leather one is bloody heavy.

I keep looking for a new everyday bag but I can't find anything that I like so I'm sticking with a small leather cross body that I bought in Fat Face about 8 years ago.

DH bought me this bag for Valentine's Day.
It can be a shoulder bag or backpack and I love it

Perfect for Valentine’s Day!

The Uniqlo bags are brilliant

This for work, got it reduced to £158 in the January sales

A river island padded tote for my hols it was on sale for £20 and too good not to buy

Prior to that a strathberry mosaic which I purchased with some inheritance from my lovely Dad. He was Scottish & it's a Scottish brand so I like to think he would approve.

Oooh, I like this thread!

I bought a Polène numéro un nano, which is rather frivolous of me.

What is Strathberry like? Are the bags heavy?

I’ve only recently heard of Polene. What’s the quality like?

I bought the Fossil Willa bag in Drizzle, ready for summer. It's gorgeous, buttery soft leather.

this one which looks like a horrible green but is actually a lovely beige colour ! Really handy as folds up small but fits lots in. I have it in large as a work bag and wanted a smaller one for weekends.

Kipling ARTO S Small Crossbody https://amzn.eu/d/ck9Eh6r
Just the right size and bought it for £17.99 in the summer so a bargain too.

@happytobemrsg no not heavy, very lovely quality leather & a perfect sized bag for day to day imo. Carries keys, glasses, phone with room to spare. It's one large pocket with a small interior zip pocket which I prefer.

Love the colour
