I HAVE to chuck my current one as it's had it.
I need something for days when I'm a mummy- I have a decent one for work.
I need something that's not £££ so no fancy labels . It should be big enough for purse, phone, keys etc. But that's all I really put in it as we always have ds's stuff in his changing bag. It should be easy to carry too as I'll be pushing the buggy so nothing that sits in the crook of your arm iyswim.
My old one was a fatface across body job that had lots of pockets. I'd like something a bit more grown up but still casual.
Yes I am sounding pretty picky!

TIA x

One of my students brought in a lovely bag the other day from Dune for £55 - not leather though. It was a scoop that unzipped all the way round to make it bigger - it was smart as well as casual.

this one

if that's too cheap here's a nice leather one for £120

I think they have some nice ones at Oasis at the moment -- lots of cross-body but still cool, some over the shoulder, etc.

Think I'll need to stick to less than 3 figures.

Not sure about buckles on cheaper one

I like the Visconti leather ones - this is one of the cheaper ones they do - have a look at the Mud colour.

If you search Amazon (or google) for Visconti loads more come up

I love my Evie bag from red direct

All leather and in the bloomin sale - I paid full price. Takes a while to get squishy though (a couple of weeks)

I have used this bag for years and a small shoulder bag that I pop inside. I then pop the handbag out & put on my shoulder when I need to get at my purse, travel pass or keys.
Pink bag I then put all my bits books, cardigan kids cardigan in the shopper!

Sorry Mrs Flux ... hadn't read your next post re pricing. Too ££ then!

I've got both the Simply Grace and Darling Sophia bags from www.avaandgrace.com and they are both gorgeous with just the right length handles.
