i like it in a casual punky way - what is your style?

lulumama · 27/08/2008 20:46

love the big zip detail but colour not that nice IMO

nowwearefour · 27/08/2008 20:47

Tutter · 27/08/2008 20:47

southeastastra · 27/08/2008 20:49

They have got other colours here inluding plain black/brown.

I don't really have a style beyond jeans and tops, I am of the larger persuasion so like a large bag to counterbalance norkage, or it looks like a dolls bga on my shoudler! I do try and be funky with my bags as opposed to clothes, my current fave is a bright red leather shoulder bag, and before that was a vintage flowery wooden handled bag, then I had kids....
Haven't bought a new bag in so long (was banned from more than 1 a month after DH counted me giving 50 to charity last year) and I have a bit of spare money this month......

It's either that or a loooong mooch round TK Maxx I think, although I qiute like this one too

Can you all either say it's nice or not? If you end up with a split decision it doesn't help!!

I really like the dead dog, although would need to see it in rl to be sure. Not very keen on the other one.

lulumama · 27/08/2008 21:02

nice in the plain colours

other wise no

is it a copy of something designer?

twoluvlykids · 27/08/2008 21:05

I don't like them,have you looked at anything by Kipling? They're washable & virtually indestructible, wish I'd known about them when mine were tiny.

southeastastra · 27/08/2008 21:08

go for it, it's not too much, i like it it's different

OOh, damn you twoluvlykids, I couldn't get on here to post so went and googled Kipling....I like them! Laptop bags make great changing bags too....hmmm....!

the first one looks like something my mum would buy me (not good)

am a sucker for dead animal print though so quite like second one.

now, all you need is for everyone else to agree with me and you will be sorted!

nappyaddict · 28/08/2008 00:31

Ooh kipling changing bags!

Not keen on the first one, looks to much like my sisters bag...she's a bit of a sloane ranger, even now

Unfortunately I haven't inherited enough for this....

grouchomarx · 28/08/2008 00:49

chirpy

I am getting zero blindness looking at that second bag.

is that, ahem ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND dollars????

LynetteScavo · 28/08/2008 00:51

The first link was rancid.....but it's actually quite nice in tan.

I do like the dead dog one though...would get one of those for myself.

Kipling is very practicle, but a bit dull.

Personally I would go for the Kipling one, for a changing bag...but then I'm dull.

nappyaddict · 28/08/2008 00:52

this one is ok

After all that I went for a mooch in Debenhams today after getting my hair done and fell in love withthis. The beigey tree bit is glittery too!
This is the back of the bag, the other reason I am posting is to show you what happened when I took a pic of the front and then 5 seconds later

But look it's so pretty!

(have to brag/show off on here as DH doesn't know it is new.....and we shall keep it that way....)

chirpygirl, is this a bag porn thread?

and, btw, do you have astroturf on your living room floor?

harpomarx · 28/08/2008 20:46

oh, have just seen it is your dd's bedroom carpet - missed that pic!

Nice to see it is not just my dd that swipes all my best buys...
