Bag help required please :)

TheFutureMrsKay, 23 of April of 2015 at 12:05 Posted on Planning 0 14

So I thought I'd resolved this. I found a bag that I love; I ordered it from the internet. It came today.... and it's so small. It doesn't even fit my phone in it.

So back to the drawing board. I was wondering if any of you lovely ladies might be able to help me.

I have checked Monsoon, Marks and Spencer and Debenhams (and had a quick look on eBay), but have yet to find anything I like.

It should be preferably white or ivory, and not be a fixed shape, and should be at least 23cm in length. If you have any ideas, I would greatly appreciate them.

In case you're wondering, the bag that I bought is this one:

    Pammy- which one is that? Sorry, nothing came up Smiley smile

    I'm just concerned, as my phone is quite big (15cm in length), so getting a bag to fit that and all the other little bits is proving challenging.

    Link fixed. My phone is big - Galaxy S4, got that, tissues, lippy, small purse in easily. 8.5" is about 21cm. It's quite deep too.

    Mine's in the rose gold colour and I love it. I'm happy to lend it you you Smiley smile I've also got an ivory bag with chiffon roses on which can take a phone and a few bits.

    Thank you from the offer, but I have nothing that is rose gold, so I feel it may be out of place. But it was so lovely of you to offer!

    I love the eBay one you posted. And it's in white! We may have a winner Smiley laugh thank you for helping Smiley smile

    I hadn't even thought of amazon. I think that's perfect! It's a bigger version of the one I have. Thank you; I could hug you!

    I think it's a personal preference; have one if you want one. If not, make someone else carry your stuff.

    I'm doing both; having my own bag, and getting someone else to carry it (when I can't). Perks of being the bride Smiley laugh

    The bag is gorgeous; I've resold it now, to a bride who it is perfect for. At least it'll make someone else happy.

    One of the links posted above is almost the same bag, but quite a bit bigger (from Amazon). I've ordered that; if it's horribly wrong, at least I can send it back.

    I thought it looked similar to your original one. I love Amazon mainly for its free delivery!

    I am going to have a look on Amazon and e-bay at these links and hopefully I can snap one up to go with my dress also ? I am going to Vegas for my wedding so a little bag ( big enough for my phone and some cash ) would be great for while I am partying up and down the Las Vegas strip haha

    I bought mine from an RSPCA charity shop. It was £3.50 and is stunning and just perfect! I know I was very lucky, but it may be worth a look around the charity shops! x

    Just to say a huge, huge thank you to Lapland2015.

    I bought the bag that you posted (the Amazon). It came really quickly, and it is just perfect! It's the right size for me, and is really well made.

    I'm so made up now. Another thing off the list!

    Hi,

    I have three styles of bag. Have a look on my fb page Lemon Violet Fascinators and website www.weddingfascinator.co.uk to see if any are what you need. I have an ivory boxy style, like those in the ivory fb pictures too from last season. Hope that helps

    Lynne
