Question:
Red leather slouchy bag help!
This is my beloved red leather bag, which I got from Topshop about a year ago, and have used practically every day since - I love how it brightens up a boring vest-and-jeans outfit. Sadly it is now falling apart from overuse, and I *need* a replacement! Requirements are,
* Must be red (obviously)
* Must be leather, not pleather (I have become a bit of a leather-bag-snob :head: )
* Must be fairly slouchy
* Must be big-ish, as I carry around a LOT of stuff!
Has anyone seen anything suitable?
Please somebody find me a new bag... this is urgent, because my visits to NAP to drool over the red Chloe Paddy are becoming more and more frequent, and I fear that I might actually click on 'buy' one of these days unless I find a cheaper replacement :eek: I am a student, and students do not spend £800 on heres! (repeats to self)
:thanks:
Why not hang on a month Glitter and see if some more expensive designer bags (even that Paddy perhaps) don't go on the Xmas sales? You might get something really lush for the price of a Mango or Topshop bag if you pounce!
Ooh yes, I never thought of the Xmas sales! I'm so impatient :lol: Thanks Serendipity :D Do you recommend just keeping an eye on NAP then? As I don't live near any good designer-bag stores, no Selfridges or anything :(
Keep an eye on RedDirect, Mulberry, LaRedoute, NAP, and all the online bag shops a few days before and after Xmas. I know RedDirect has a few red ones at the moment - their Lloyd Baker red slouchy one is bigger than your one but I have the brown one and it is lovely. Mulberry usually has 50% off all seasonal colours and styles, This year it was ginger plus they might have a few olives from last year and reds from the year before. That red Paddy might go on sale, you never know!
That's fantastic, thankyou! I will check those sites religously during Xmas then :D
