Let's talk purses

Yesterday's thread and one of the SPAM threads made me want a new handbag--it's been almost 3 years since I bought something new, with the exception of a small cross body. I want nice, but not crazy expensive, no Prada or Louis V. And preferably something that doesn't have branding all over it. What are you loving lately? Please share!

Eta: exception not expedition. Damn AC

I have a small cross body coach leather one that I LOVE. It's just big enough for wallet, cell, lip gloss and a few other things! It had the coach metal emblem on it but not all the C's. Had it since Christmas last year and still looks brand new!

It's kinda like this one -- https://mobile.coach.com/mt/www.coach.com/online/handbags/Product-madison_foldover_crossbody_in_leather-10551-10051-51896-en?cs=librk&catId=5000000000000015030

I need a bigger bag because I have to carry my glasses and my sunglasses, with cases, in addition to the normal things. I don't mind spending more for a quality bag since I tend to keep my bag for a few years. But this year I just couldn't find much I liked and actually ended up with a moderately priced bag from The Sak that I really like. https://www.thesak.com/leather/pax-leather-large-crossbody/black. I took the crossbody strap off because I won't use it. I have had bags from them before that have held up beautifully for years.

Ooooooo, @ceeyounexttuesday‌ I love that one, and it's the perfect size! And DH loves buying anything that's on sale! Thanks ladies, all great suggestions!

I'm so jealous! We are poor so no new bags for me.

I love foley and Corinna bags (mid city hobo etc ranges around $300) and also top shop carries some decent leather bags that are on trend.

Shop bop is having a friends and family sale - great time to purchase brands that don't go on sale!
