High Street Pick of the Week

Lots of press on the M&S bags suggest there might be something in going for a non leather bag to get fashion over quality. If you're a vegan or opposed to buying leather then this season's choice of bags are a winner.

  3. I think M&S always do good bags, I normally buy a couple of non leather ones a year to have a change from my classic bags (one ysl that's about 6 years old, one longchamp about 3 years old and one LV, 9 years old)

    Have a good weekend! x

  4. You get what you pay for, I guess, and you're not paying much. I don't care for it.

  5. You are right: it's great that there are so many choices for vegans out there now.

    M&S are very good at giving great quality at a low price point, but my eco head makes me think that it's maybe better to save up for a piece that will last both fashion & quality wise for a few years. That being said: if you happen to need a purple patent bag, then why not buy this very stylish looking one?! LLGxx

  7. I like the bag if it had a different handle. Something more substantial would be nice. But at that price you re lucky to get a handle.

  10. My philosophy is to buy one good item--one pair of shoes or one fine bag--when you can afford it. But sometimes there's a great not-expensive item that has me throwing my philosophy to the wind . . .

  11. If there is one thing I never go for its a cheap bag, I can sacrifice any thing else but not the bags LOL. It is a nice one though for a pop of colour!

  12. I'm not too sure about non-leather bags. I always strive to buy the best that I can afford...! But totally understand the need for faux-leather for our vegetarian friends.

  13. I love animals, but I make exceptions for leather bags... I know, I'm awful. That said, this one is a nice pick.
