Aspinal of London comes to mind when we talk of a person that appreciates quality but might hesitate to spend loads of money. Mini Mayfair and Micro Lottie both come with great quality and a price tag that is easy on the mind.
Mini Mayfair is more festive and an occasion bag, and I especially love the Dragonfly color, it's SO GORGEOUS! Lottie is a bit more casual but at the same time the threshold to use it again after the wedding is lower I think. There are 2 colors of Micro Lottie on their site, one of them is a gorgeous burgundy.

Update: in a surprising turn of events, my mom chose the Bulgari serpenti forever wallet on chain (thanks @JolieS for the recommendation!). It arrived today and I am quite impressed with the design.

It’s ultra roomy for a WOC (probably fits about as much as a Chanel mini) AND it has a back pocket that fits an iPhone without damaging the leather. It also has an adjustable strap - seems like Bulgari really listened to the “gripes” with current WOC style bags and addressed them.

She ordered it online and the experience was great. Ordered yesterday morning and received today. The box was wrapped in ribbon, and everything was carefully packaged. It really felt like a luxury experience.

So in case anyone else is considering this bag, my first impression is DEFINITELY recommend! I might get one for myself if the right color comes along.

She picked a winner! I am such a fan of Bulgari, the quality of their bags is excellent. I hope she continues to wear it after the wedding. Best wishes to all.
