Say hello to my new baby! Now I , like alot of people absolutely adore The Cambridge Satchel Company bags, but being such a lover of bags..and anything fashion related, I cant really afford to be splurging £100+ on a bag. When I saw this in H&M I ummed & arrred over whether or not to get it...and sadly left without it! I saw a very similar bag a few days later in Primark..it was only £9..but looked a bit too cheap! So I weighed up the pros and cons..and just decided to get the H&M version. £19.99 is a bit pricey for such a small bag, but its very cute & the fact that its gold means it'll go with anything! I'd definitely rather spend 20 quid on a look-alike..leaving more pennies for other things..and you know me.....theres always
other things!! Im love-love-loving it! Perfect for work & play :) Also available in brown, black, patent black, dalmation & illuminous pink!
What do you think? Are you more into designer or dupe?

It's beautiful! Some things, i guess it's best to buy the designer product but when it is a bag for £100+ I feel dupes are better. Such a lovely colour. Love it so much! x

Yeh I agree! I love the odd designer piece but I go through bags so frequently and always change which ones I use , its better to buy a cheaper version that way I don't feel like I'm wasting! :)
DeleteGorgeous! Definitely more into dupes :)
ReplyDeleteis it big enough for folders and schooly stuff do you think? x

No , its pretty small , can fit my notebook , fone , few makeup bits and a sandwich lol!! Xx
DeleteI love this, I almost bought the same bag today but in neon pink! x
ReplyDeleteI loved the neon pink too! But just felt like gold would be a better choice for me :) loveee it x
DeleteLove this! May have to invest after just ruining my current satchel by throwing pimms all over it...woops! X
ReplyDeleteLol! Clumsyyyy :) x
DeleteLove this!!!! I want one bag like that!!!!

This is amazing! I was staring at the Primark one the other day but I agree, it's definitely cheap looking! I might have to treat myself to the patent black one come pay day aha. I'm such a fan of dupes, I wouldn't splash out on a £100+ satchel when there's always a new trend minutes away! xx
ReplyDeleteYeh i agree about new trends!! have a look online i know they do the black patent and the brown on their website! u can get 25% off when you sign up to the newsletter!! x

Yeh the brown is really classic xxxx
DeleteThat's gorgeous, I love the colour! For me, I find I feel I can justify spending more on a bag than many other items... xo
ReplyDeleteI suppose haha! A bag is for life! :)
DeleteWooow ! That's what we call a great colour :)

LOL! mine too xx
DeleteDefinitely wouldn't pay Cambridge prices, these and the Primark ones are great alternatives. There's also some gorgeous H! by Henry Holland ones at Debenhams in pink, yellow, purple and black. I have my eyes on the H&M dalmation one!

ohh i know i saw them the other day theyre soo cute x
Deletelove your blogs name, so cute. gorgeous satchel.
ReplyDeleteThis bag is so lovely, eee. I saw the bright pink one in my local h&m and even though I usually dislike all things neon but I even contemplated buying it. They're just so bright. Dupes all the way, why have something that's super expensive when you can have something that's almost identical and have lots of other stuff too!
ReplyDelete:) me toooo x
Deletelovely little bag! dupes are way better x
ReplyDeletewoooo xx
DeleteLove this bag I hope they still have them in stock :)

This bag is gorgeous, good find. I'm aaall about the dupes! There's always so much stuff I want to buy so I'd rather buy a few cheaper things than one designer item. Especially since there always seems to be good dupes out there :) xx

With bags I'd usually TRY to go designer, like I am a complete sucker for the Cambridge satchels. But this is such a bargain and actually looks quite expensive! Such a statement and will be a great party bag for this winter!!
