What area of Canada do you live in oceansportrait?? I live in Ontario and only know of the Betsey Johnson store in Yorkville in Toronto. Also the Winners stores in Toronto always carry Betsey shoes/purses/sunglasses/wallets/jewellery/belts/cosmetic bags and maybe clothing but I have never looked...The Winners close to me only carries the odd purse/sunglasses/belts/wallets/cosmetic bags...we don't get the nicer pricey stuff just the betseyville stuff mostly. There is also a designer second hand store close to me that gets some betsey stuff in once in awhile. Right now they have two beautiful dresses that I am resisting. I just bought my leather betsey purse there which is almost the same style as the bag posted above except mine has studded and suede detailing differences and its black (not sure what the bag style is called)...and its where I bought my green jacket from too and it was new with tags!
 
oh my goodness!!! I just found this thread. I am a HUGE Betsey Fan. Mostly shoes and clothes although I have a few handbags and cosmetic bags. I la la la love Betsey Johnson.
: )

Hey ladyash
I'm located in British Columbia. The only betsy johnson available here (that I know of) is Winners too---but they only ever have the bags (which, as I mentioned, have all been too heavy for me ^^;)
 
there is always her online store too...though with shipping it's pretty expensive plus you would have to pay customs and duty as well :(

There is a store in B.C but I don't know how close you would be to it? I am about 2 and a half hours from Toronto and have only been to the store once. I am too far to go up just to go shopping so I try to hit the Betsey hot spots if I have time.
Also if you have an Urban Outfitters store in your area they sometimes sell Betsey Johnson tights and undies.

I used to have tons of Betsey handbags when I was younger. I've recently been looking for the Heavy Metal satchel that came out years ago, I hate that I got rid of the one I had!
A tpf'er had some in her collection thread and made me want to go look at Betsey Johnson bags again.
I saw a Cheet & Greet bucket-shaped bag in purple :tender: @ a TJ Maxx, but of course, I let someone convince me it was hideous :lecture:
 
I have the "key-per" satchel in the redish color. It's one of the softest leathers I've ever felt. I'm constantly buying/selling/buying but I have about 5 bags that are my favorites and I'll never sell them and this bag is one of them.

With that being said some of her bags are not my style but I only like a satchel style bag with a short drop length and this particular bag is the exact size/style that I love.

BTW - anytime I carry this bag I always get complitments.
 
I was just at a Betsey Johnson store. Her bags are kind of right up my alley, though I've never really paid that much attention to them. Love the soft leather and stud look, and i may have broken my ban for a little something.... :blushing:

I guess I'm sort of a fan now.
 
I like Betsy's bags and clothes and I'm mid-50s. There's always something in her line that is a great piece to spruce up a wardrobe. Plus, she's very young at heart although she's of a mature age.
 
Betsy Johnson's Alison
- Got it 1/2 size smaller than my usual
- It's not painful to stand in, but walking can be a little awkward because the heel seems flimsy. Total sex shoe though!
