tis primarni version of this really, with no symbol on the front

Do you like it? I want a big back for work (office) and the primark one is only £7 so it's not the end of the world when it looks dated in a year! If you think it's utter ming, do say.

saggarmakersbottomknocker · 14/02/2010 09:26

My 16 year old dd has similar. It may be minging but is 'on trend' apparently.

AnnieBeansMum · 14/02/2010 09:27

Utter ming I'm afraid.

madrose · 14/02/2010 09:32

Had a small clutch/envelope style version of this in cream last year (so nothing at all like the one in pic, but anyway...). Quite liked the bag itself but realised after 5 minutes that the chain straps are not one bit comfy and dig in like buggery. And they are cold against bare skin (it was summer). Yuk.

ShirleyKnott · 14/02/2010 19:23

yes gals at school all had it

ShirleyKnott · 14/02/2010 19:24
