Purse Difficulties

9th July 2012 at 03:03

I fell in love.

Yes, with a purse...

I've been looking around in stores and online for a largish sized clutch and was totally taken by surprise when I saw and fell in love with this asos bag

It wasn't what I was looking for but I loved the simple nude and the very chic quilting... and I don't even like gold that much!

My problem is I just turned 23 and graduated and I'm tired of getting the same old cheap purses, I am ready for the real thing. The real thing in this case, however, is either a super expensive Channel or an even more expensive Marc Jacobs.... Now I'm prepared to save/spend some money somewhere in the range of $150-$300 for a true high quality bag but both those names are waaaaaay out of my price range.

So get down to the point, can anyone find me a quality purse in this style within my budget?

Aldo might carry something like this. Their bags aren't too bad in my opinion

It's 26.51 $ on the ASOS website it looks like it's in US currency too.

You could also try looking at an outlet mall (Aldo is at the outlet over here but you'd have to check yours) they tend to have name brands for a more affordable price.

Hi Emmyann,

while browsing the internet, I found this:
http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/women/baracco-quilted-shoulder-bag-item-10082445.aspx
it's now on sale, and so it is within your budget

I also found this:

You can also maybe check vintage shops sometimes they have some hidden treasures, I once found a bag like the one you are looking for in a really small secondhand shop, so you might get lucky (I hope you do!)
