Help me find a similar bag please!

[LadyContrary]

I really like this bag but I don’t want to spend this much on it. I love it because it reminds me of bags I had as a teen and in my early 20s and it definitely wouldn’t be my everyday bag, so the maximum I’d spend is maybe £200, ideally less. Pleeeeeease help me find something similar: black or brown, doesn’t really matter and with a chain - I can only find similar bags with a strap but I love the chain.

There's quite a few online.

£40 on Amazon

£200 Cochinelle

£36 ASOS

£140 Etsy

Thank you but neither of these ticks all the boxes: gathered on top and a single chain. Asos link isn’t working for me, takes me to the home page.

This is the mini, but it's still quite big. £229.

I know but I really need the larger one. I carry everything but the kitchen sink in my bag..

Can't you justify spending that much if that's the bag you really want and cut back on something else.

@Viviennemary I probably could but it feels really frivolous. I’ve got all the handbags I need (and some I absolutely don’t need but fancied) so £400 on a bag that I will use only occasionally, when I’m going for a very particular look, casual and at the weekend only, feels a bit too much.

I used to feel the way you do. Yes it's a lot for a bag so keep looking and if you don't find anything go for the one you love. I love it too!

Have you seen the bag in real life?
I loved Ba@sh but I think the quality has really deteriorated and the quality of the bag is not really worth the price.

@LunaTheCat yes, I’ve seen it in real life but only briefly and I didn’t get a proper look at the detail. It looked fine but didn’t scream “expensive” or “high quality”. I really love the shape and the chain strap though, hence this post.
