Thread: Ladies, Help Me OUt! I'm looking for a Bag...

I am looking for a new handbag... Here are the reccomendations:

1. Preferably leather... no logos... Buckles with engravements, or designer adornments are ok..
2. Flat Shoulder Strap
3. Medium to Large Size
4. Preferably a Hobo or a Satchel... (must be a shoulder bag)
5. Black, White or Grey (leather)
6. No more than $450... Unless it's something I worth spending a bit more on... Even though I plan on spending $300-ish on it...

Any Ideas??!! Help.

ok...i think i have a few awesome suggestions for you!

what about these ones by MbyMJ?:

Posh Patent Satchel $458


Faridah Shoulder Bag $438


Totally Turn-Lock Heidi Satchel $448


I know they are a little over your budget but I think they are definitely worth the price. I saw the Lady satchel in blue over at the Barneys outlet where I live and it was such a nice bag and very comfy to wear. I would have gotten it but I was saving every penny to get my LV bag. Anyways, hopes this helps a bit and I'll look out for any others that fit the criteria listed!

i think i read once that you love black with gold hardware. so here is another. btw, does it matter if it zips on top?

Large Drawstring Shoulder Bag by Elliott Lucca $298



p.s. - all of the bags i listed so far are from Neimans

What about this one? It's only $398 and it is definitely roomy! It's over at Shopbop

Marc by Marc Jacobs Totally Turnlock Core Bowler

Foley + Corinna River Stone Mid City Tote $407.00 ?


Amazon.com: foley + corinna

I bought a grey Kooba bag that would be perfect. I'll have to look for the name of it and a picture.

I was thinking of a MBMJ bag... I've never "played" with one of their leather bags... I wonder if they're as smooshy as they look...

As for the Foley bags... I like them a lot... but I just wish the actual top handle could be carried on the shoulder... without use of the detachable strap...

Thanks for the help girls... I'm actually waiting for a SALE somewhere... online...

viva, right now at thepursestore the new arrivals are 30% off!! There's a couple MJ bags and Foley purses.

code: BDAY08

code ends at the end of this month.

This may not be exactly what you're looking for, but it's at The Purse Store, and is pretty cute. It's a Gusto bag: Gustto Estiva Leather Beach: The Purse Store

I also think this one is pretty interesting:
Treesje Avery: The Purse Store

Retail Price:$685
Sale Price:$410

Jennifer... thanks for the info. I shall check out the MBMJ bags...

lilstrlett: the Treesje is very pretty...

I know I like to too. I think because it's different than other bags I've seen, and also because it's not a bag anyone can say "Oh it's LV or Chanel." Only you know it's expensive so you have nothing to prove to anyone else :) Plus I like the fact that it's dark silver.

Yeah... I totally agree...
