Hello! I am hoping for some help finding a Xmas gift for DD. She would really like a Polene Cyme bag but has not asked for one as she knows it's not in budget. There are very similar bags on places like Ali Express for £50ish, does anyone have any experience with this?
I would be very grateful if anyone can help :)
Thankyou

Yes that is the one thank you @TheSquareMile ! It is lovely. She has NOT asked for it. She has asked for a large bag to use for uni/work and to carry her laptop. But I know this is what she coverts.

@faithfultoGeorgeMichael

I would lean more towards buying from a known and trusted source, OP.

You don't want something which isn't what you hoped it would be.
