OMG you're in your early twenties! Step AWAY from the grandma bags you youngster!

Seriously Radley bags are twee and boring and just not nice.

You can do so much better. What's your budget? What colour are you looking for?

Oh and well done on giving up smoking - you definitely deserve a treat

Link didn't work. I have a couple of Radley bags that I love, they are both picture bags.

What's the name of the bag, I want to look now

OnlyWantsOneFartleBerry · 20/01/2010 11:58

um, I love radleys... love them, have wallets and purses and small clutch bags, I am middle aged, Im a tutor for goodness sake, with a child etc...now tell me good woman, what to buy...

About £100 - depending on how in love I fall

I love it, I'd get the purple, or possibly the black. great price too

OnlyWantsOneFartleBerry · 20/01/2010 12:04

I think the purple one, because that could be worn with any thing? brown or black?

moaningminniewhingesagain · 20/01/2010 12:07

Purple in the dot to dog, IMO

moaningminniewhingesagain · 20/01/2010 12:09

The St James is nice too. God I'm no help am I??

moaningminniewhingesagain · 20/01/2010 12:10

Got to go feed the DCs, tell us which one you chose

Some nice stuff in the new spring collection too but am going to wait for next sale I think.

OnlyWantsOneFartleBerry · 20/01/2010 12:11

but that one is smaller - I want to use it to through my blackberry / diary / book / occasional folder / make up bag etc in and go to work

I want this to be my every day bag

The purple one looks blue on the website doesnt it?

You think that over the pink one? Which looks purple....

Oh no don't do it.

They really are bags for teachers in their 40's.

Look at all the lovely bags on outnet/ pret a portobello, then tell me you'd prefer a radley.

OnlyWantsOneFartleBerry · 20/01/2010 12:21

Devil - Ive looked on both, I still want a Radley...

OP posts:
TheDevilWearsPrimark · 20/01/2010 12:22

Actually the one you linked to is quite nice. Go for purple.

Hopefully · 20/01/2010 12:27

I don't think they're the most interesting bags ever, but I bought one of the picture ones (dog in a kennel, maybe? can't remember) and it still looked pretty good after YEARS of hard use.

OnlyWantsOneFartleBerry · 20/01/2010 12:27

purple??

or pinky one??

I think Radley are very smart but definitely for much older people.
Have you tried something like Blondie Mania?

OnlyWantsOneFartleBerry · 20/01/2010 12:30

I am old!!!!

Just accept this... and advise

OP posts:
Ronaldinhio · 20/01/2010 12:31

not radley

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 20/01/2010 12:32

'purple'

The 'pink' looks like burgundy red to me.

Can you go and see one in a shop before buying?
