My Turn. Looking for a Black Bag...

[MissTiss]

I know everyone is looking for the perfect black bag. I am no exception. I don't even own one. <Gasp!> And here I am supposed to be on a ban.

The bag should be: made of leather, have No overt logos, have a classic shape, and is medium to large in size. I want to spend no more than $500.00.

What do you girls think? Is that possible? Post links and pics if you can.

TIA.

I am too looking for the "perfect black bag". I have been looking at Belen Echandia Love Me and Charm Me and the Rebecca Minkoff Nikki (although I just bought the mini in the dark grey which I absolutely love).

I saw this Marc by Marc Jacobs bag at Nordstrom yesterday for $458 and really like it -- roomy with a double zip at the top.

I saw this Gryson Josey on sale today: http://www.rarechic.com/product_view.php?id=266

The MJ bag above is cute but not too big.....

A Foley + Corinna bag could be good as well.

I have one and I love it! I dress it up with the various ponytail scarves they have to add color.

Anna Corinna (or is it now Foley + Corinna?) Jet Setter Jr. has been getting talked about a lot around here lately. That one might interest you.

Me too! Ever since I left a TDF MJ on the sale rack at Nordstrom (in black and $500..go figure!) I have been searching. Good luck to you. I happen to like these in that range...

I just bought this Rafe Charcoal Kate Hobo bag from bagshop.com with an additional 10% off it was $391.50 with free shipping/ no tax. It is super-soft leather, not heavy at all, but very sturdy/strong, the strap can be varied to 3 dirrent lengths, and it is big, but not gigantic! Also, the hardware is an antique brass, not at all shiny like this picture shows it to be. I am loving it!

What about this one? I would be purchasing it in a heartbeat if I had not already gotten too many bags recently...

I just bought a Belen Enchandia Love Me in black. I love it ... classic shape, great quality, no logos, fuchsia lining, both short and long handles, silver hardware. It's pretty large -- I wanted something that would fit my laptop -- but not huge. It was $750 ... but worth it, I think. Here it is:

oops, I meant Belen Echandia!

Very Classic, but I am thinking more along the lines of satchel or tote. I forgot to mention that.
