When You Buy a Handbag Do You Go after the Brand Name?

Other

For the ladies, when you buy a handbag do you go after the brand name? I think brand names are only important if you're keeping up with the Joneses but most of the time I buy handbags for form and function.

Not all the time. Most of the time I just buy any bag that looks good. But for certain events I do buy brands

I have certain brands I prefer the design that I know the brand is usually good quality. I'd rather buy a good quality backpack that I know will last (can't use handbags due to shoulder injury). I don't like to have a brand all over the bag that's not for me. I don't go for high price either

If it's for a particular outfit I'd choose colour first, if it's a bag for work then size and quality to last, mostly always leather as it ages beautifully

I buy a bag if I like it and will use it a lot. If I was going for a brand it would be Ted Baker. I have 3 Ted Baker bags and I use them all the time! Although my current handbag is my changing bag!

no I buy any handbag for £5-£7 the last one I brought was black handbag

at Primark and it has lasted for about 5years, i used it 3-5times a week this is my daily handbag.

All I do is check that the handbag is strong

the size I go for it medium so I can fit my tiny bible into it and bottle of water and my mobile.

I don't like long straps so I either go for the short one or those I can shorten

that's it.

If a beautiful cheap strong handbag can last as long as a branded expensive handbag, why spend £50

when you

can get one for less then £10.

I love lots of designers bags 😊 I often go for quality over the quantity but only once I can really afford. I wouldn’t go for a loan to get a handbag 😂 and I do own some cheaper once too!

No, I know I need a small handle and it also need to be hanged. Need to be big to have place for baby wipes and other things,
