[Hye Park Lover]

Could someone recommend me a reasonably cheap (cheapskate alarm goes off the scale ) real leather shoulder bag?

 

[Hye Park Lover]

Also please could you guys recommend me a black quilted leather shopper sort of shoulder bag? I've been going crazy trying to find one of these for decades!

Hello ladies, what are your thoughts. I am 5'1" and love big bags. I currently am using the gucci horsebit hobo. I am considering the jimmy choo ramona, kooba marcelle, and marc jacobs stam. Which of these would you recommend and is there anything else that I should look at? Thanks!

Hye Park Lover, please define "reasonably cheap"? Under 100 pounds? 80 pounds?

There are some nice-looking leather bags on ebags.co.uk under 100 pounds, for instance:

Hye Park Lover, I just came across these bags on a couple of websites today - have you seen them in real life? Leather shoulder bags ...

I need a black bag. Because I frankly don't have one and haven't for years. I want something simple, yet chic. Feminine, but not too feminine. I don't really like studs, but I don't want a commuter look either. A little edgy but can also be worn as feminine chic would be great. Hope that's not too confusing.

Simple, not too simple, and versatile.

Thankyou both Luna and Passerby! (especially passerby ) Passerby, I especially like the last one you posted, will have to probe it further.

Luna, I went the website you gave me and my, their bags are certainly very ... err.... designer inspired

Can you say Chloe?

Haha... Yea.. some of them are knocked off... but there are quite a few cute/cheap bags.

don't forget about Zappos.com... tons of cute bags for 100 or a little over 100

Okay, I am looking for a bag that is simple and yet small also, something I can carry my keys, wallet, cellphone and extra little thing like gum and cigarrates.
Help.

It's a little confusing to me Whiteshells, what's your budget?

 

[passerby]

Thesmiths, you didn't specify the material so your thoughts on this, please?

Prefferably under $150, but definitely no more than $250. Also, I need gold hardware! Above all else, gold hardware.

Oh yes, I've had my eyes on those Oh Deer bruge-knockoffs for ages, but it's frustrating that they don't deliver internationally, especially when they're offering free delivery both ways domestically

 

[passerby]

Whiteshells, this bag by Flavio Olivera does not have gold hardware, only gold stitched waves

$220 now (usual price $440)

Thanks for the reccomendation! Though I don't really like the leather on it. But I did find something I love on the same site. Too bad it's a bit much. Maybe it will go on sale sometime too. Funny how it has studs, but but it's not so... I don't know.

 

[passerby]

Whiteshells, this is too funny: believe it or not - I wanted to suggest that Aaneta!! Don't own one of their bags but I've read about them.

There's tons of great white bags to choose from. You could go for the gorgeous white muse. Looks like Neiman's still has some. I picked up the Celine Clandy in cream which I think is absolutely perfect. I've been wearing it around and I love love love it. For more casual I would go for a Mulberry bag in ivory.

I would love a clandy in Cream.
*goes to check out the Clandy thread*

Thanks guys!
