  • I'm like you OP, I like ones like surfery ones. I used to have an obsession for handbags and probably have about 20. I have only started using an old animal one this week as for the past 8 months my handbag has been the changing bag lol!:rolleyes:

    I like the one you put a link to, I'm tempted!!! ;)

    Personally I really hate radley bags though, that little dog makes me want to shout! haha! I don't know what the poor little scottie has done to enrage me so much! :D
    I dont get the Radley thing either....I think they are boring:o

  • I've got a drawer full of sparkily Matalan / Dunnes / Tesco / Primark ones which I rarley use. BUT.. a couple of years ago my dear bf bought me a really nice Fliorelli at the airport, the bag got lots of attention from women. I then bought a fake mui mui (red, silver accessories, leapord skin lining...I love it) and then a genuine DKNY black leather, with hundred of silver studs (again, love it).

    i tend to rotate the bags every couple of months or so, so that I dont A) wear them out and b) forget how much I love the bags I've not been using. It also doubles as a regular clear out....

    Does anybody get captivated by QVC's bags? I dont watch regularly, but when I've landed on it, some of the bags are really lovely, but not cheap. I wondered if it worth spending the typically £50 - £90 on one that catches my eye?

    I have so many Radley bags, purses, shopper bags, sunglasses, passport holders, key rings you name it i've got it, even a suitcase and matching back pack!

    I'm just Radley mad, I don't particularly like scottie dogs in the flesh but I love Radley bags the leather is really good quality and their customer service is fab too.

    7 Radley Bags
    4 Radley Purses
    2 Kipling Bags

    All started when I bought a scottie dog...

    and my latest addition my new Uni bag which is Tokidoki and was a bargain at £43 rather than the £100 it should have been :)

    My Radley addiction is surpassed only by my addiction to boots lol

    My main bag is a canvas one from La Redoute but to my shame I found 3 bags in the wardrobe, one was Aqua Scutum, one Furla and one Tula. I'm so ashamed I forgot about them. In my defence though, they were all presents. I've brought out my beautiful Furla bag because it's just gorgeous but I keep forgetting to use it. It's currently under the stairs under some smelly shoes. The shame

    I use either a black Radley or a tan Radley for everyday.

    My purse I use for every day is black.....and Radley lol

    I've got a few Radley bags and purses, I've got Next bags and a couple of Ollie & Nic bags too.
    Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty...
  • I use my across the body Radley which is vintage brown, have had this for a year now (present) but also have a black one (present) and a vintage green one (from the Tula outlet heavily reduced to £25)...all the same style but they are great for me. I have matching black and brown purses but dont have one for the green.

    I also have several LV ones still in dustbags and boxes which havent been used for a couple of years, so am seriously considering selling a couple as I dont think they will ever be used by me again.
