White handbag for wedding outfit

Hi all

I'm hoping you can help. I'm struggling to find a white handbag for a wedding which I am attending this Saturday. As I cannot see me needing it for another occassion, I don't want to spend too much. Does anyone have any ideas where I could get one from please?

Many thanks

    have a trawl round the charity shops locally,
    like you not many people use them twice and send them virtually new to the CSs.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Depending on how big you want it, there is a nice one in Matalan for £8 (I think) or have you tried Primark, New Look???

    I tried Primark but had totally forgotten about New Look. This looks promising as there are quite a few on the website. I was panicking as the only ones I could find were either very expensive (if white) or they were all ivory or cream in colour! Thanks again

    I got a very small one from New Look, i think it was about £6 and its just big enough for phone, lippy and some money. Ideal for a wedding! What colour are you wearing?

    I was going to wear a red dress which has white flowers on, but that is a very summery outfit. Given it is due to rain, I'm thinking of outfit 2, white linen trousers and green top, with white shrug.

    Have you looked in TK Maxx - sometimes have some bargains.

    Have a good day.

    White would be brilliant with the red but definitely a

    Green bag with no. 2 option (too much white with a bag)
