What bag would you buy for this season if money was no object?

Yes it's quite boring but I think it would go with everything and hold everything I would need. Shelling out £650 on a bag is not an option however.

What would you buy (just the one) if you had an unlimited budget, let me drool over your bag porn.

Sorry that's the wrong one , it should be this one as it goes cross body which is very practical when you have a toddler running everywhere!

I've been looking at these too and prefer

gorgeous colour

Clary · 09/09/2009 20:41

I know it's Boden and therefore banned but I rather like this one
In the purple

It's a bit big tho. I like small bags as I then don't put too much in them.

Sorry Libra can't look at your link?

I LOVE that colour but have nothing it goes with!

Oooo I was dribbling over looking at the Darias in HofF at the weekend, they really are lovely and I'm sorely tempted. I am a die-hard Mulberry fan and am very much hoping to get an East-West Bayswater in Rouge Noir for my birthday. It'snot the bag of my dreams but I do need a smart work bag for winter.

At the moment I'm carrying a Shimmy in tan but would also LOVE one of these but it would be rather greedy to have the same style in different colours - wouldn't it?

Sorry the colour thing was to Zembo.

Can anyone else see my links?

I can't really tell the Rouge Noir colour from the website.

Personally I think if you find a bag that suits you and works for you buy it in all the colours you can afford (al la Victoria Beckham and the birkin!)

I really like that Boden bag!

diedandgonetodevon · 09/09/2009 20:46

This is the current object of my desire.

Bolter is the circular shiny mulberry plaque on the Daria bags off-putting?

TheBolter · 09/09/2009 20:47

Libra - the Rouge Noir is a deep deep claret colour, almost black but not. It's lovely, and works beautifully in a patent finish.

Clary · 09/09/2009 20:47

I think it's cause I don't have flash player (sigh)

TheBolter · 09/09/2009 20:49

NOOOOO.... the Mulberry metal ware this season is fab (do you know I think I should work in their marketing dept ). I was trying out' the Daria clutch and yes it is a bit blingy and ostentatious (for me anyway) but you kind of get used to it and actually I think it looks great.

jambutty · 09/09/2009 20:52

love this in the purple too

TheBolter · 09/09/2009 20:54

Died, did you order a Roxanne a few weeks ago? If so how are you finding it?

fluffles · 09/09/2009 20:55

i am a cheapskate compared to the mulberry lovers but i fancy this: www.whitestuff.com/NY-SHOULDER-BAG-P23158/

francagoestohollywood · 09/09/2009 20:57

A Bottega Veneta, or this Miu Miu.

I wouldn't say no to the classic Balanciaga bag, to be honest

francagoestohollywood · 09/09/2009 21:01

Jambutty the bag in your link is beautiful!

diedandgonetodevon · 09/09/2009 21:01

Yes I did and it's lovely [drool]. Definitely one of my better buys as it has hardly left my arm since it arrived.

jambutty · 09/09/2009 21:05

I'm it's relatively cheap too, Franca!

Love that tabitha website, and much more affordable - does anyone know the quality?

What colour did you get the roxanne in?

OP posts:
jambutty · 09/09/2009 21:14

I've never bought a Tabitha bag (their prices are too dear for me), but have been looking at the website for a long time.

francagoestohollywood · 09/09/2009 21:16

Oh lovely Chloe bag...

I'm now addicted to the Tabitha website (which is deffo closer to my budget), look at this!

macherie · 09/09/2009 22:03

The Bayswater in Rouge Noir is beautiful, was drooling over it today, also loved it in Midnight, dark metalic navy, ithe a crackled finish - v nice.

This season I would like a Fendi Peek a Boo, but I don't think it's going to happen somehow

Clary · 09/09/2009 22:26

I think you bag ladies are a bit out of my league

diedandgonetodevon · 09/09/2009 22:45

I got it in trusty old Oak.

That Chloe bag looks marvellous.
