Brown leather bag help please

[janeite]

I'm looking for a brown leather bag, possibly tan, big enough to hold a paperback and an umbrella.

Quite like this but I think it's too small.

Would like a proper shoulder strap.

Or this?

Any opinions/ideas? Don't want to spend more than 60. If I can't get a decent leather one for that price, maybe somebody could recommend a cloth one instead?

Thanks.

do you mean across the body?

Shoulder bag, although across the body would be okay I guess.

Does something like this appeal?

or this

A few in your price range here

I like a couple of the Topshop ones - would never have thought of looking there! Thank you. The Mango one is a nice shape but prefer leather or cloth, rather than plastic-pleathery stuff.

Don't like the Dotty Ps' one - tis too bling for me.

Thanks. Will deffo go and look in Topshop.

This might be a bit dark for you (I think it is lighter than the photo suggests though) but it is very cheap. Or this maybe.

Thank you. Don't like the Matthew M one. I saw the Clarks one today and it is nice but too small.

some here

oh sorry same link as cyb!

we've done that one south!

lol you are a quicker typist than me

This one looks worth a look

that one looks way more £££ than it is

i quite fancy that one myself too, it's nice isn't it

Glad you both approve - I must admit sometimes, my taste is v different from everybody else's and I trust you two!

ah, thats nice

there's one on ebay that is going for £51 so far!

it looks a little small for me thinking about it.

aw that's a nice thing to say!

I have this and thoroughly recommend

Thank you. I like that although I'm not sure about the dangly bits.

Is it me or are Oasis clothes getting worse and worse and more and more expensive?

Yes the clothes are getting worse and worse, OK for a tween but I feel silly even looking at them. Bags though are surprisingly good I have found, the leather's really quite soft and they're not stupidly expensive. Dangly bits inoffensive in real life, sit right next to the bag (though I also like the ones you've linked to)

Thanks Vin - will have a look at it - and close my eyes as I walk past the clothes!

How about this?

Too big? I adore Scaramanga bags, I can highly recommend them!

That's lovely but I'm not going to Fife any time soon and I want to buy in the flesh, not online. I do really like it though. Thank you.

Fossil website.
I seem to buy nothing other than brown leather handbags and there's always something here.
