I loooove my two Mulberry Lily's (black and oak), but I rarely see a review or a Youtube video about them and I only saw the model once on the street here in Germany. The leather is just beautiful and the bag is so versatile, can be used more casual crossbody for everyday (in the summertime) and more formal for an evening out as a shoulder bag. It really does fit all my essentials (wallet, phone, tissues, chapstick, keys, sunglasses) and is so lightweight.

+1. Mulberries are my favorites, but you don't see them much around here in Germany.

I just got a Ferragamo Sofia. Which is lovely and under the radar.

Another one that just disappeared is the Coach Urbane Shoulder Bag. It is lovely. I get loads of compliments when she comes out. And a look if surprise that it is Coach. It is a small bit roomy bag that holds it shape well when you stuff it and has lovely pebbled leather.

Annabel Ingall Small Isabella totes - I get compliments all the time. I have a neutral and a bright.
Cole Haan - they are getting their style back together. I love the Bethany and Lockhart hobos. Smooshy leather!
Longchamp leather bags - high quality leather, streamlined style and so lightweight. I love the Quadri and Roseau lines.
MZ Wallace Jane - my all-time fave bag. Wears like iron, great for any weather, holds a ton without being heavy. I have 6 colors!

Hi Ladies, here's my questions to all of you. I need a very durable, water-proof, spacious, not heavy and zip-top leather bag in some really neutral color, that will go with my summer clothes. Something I can carry on my shoulder. Plus it should be something that I will not lose sleep over if it gets scratched. Hopefully something with little metal feet, but not necessarily so. It should go with my summer dresses, capri pants and summer tees. I don't wear black, so I guess black bags are out of question? And tan/brown just doesn't go with my wardrobe colors, because I have a cool coloring (I am a Cool Summer type). I don't need anything expensive or high-end. Basically I need something that will not need me babying it and can take some rough treatment.
What would you suggest? What kind of leather? What kind of color: beige, gray, or navy or what else? What kind of brand makes really durable, light bags? Anyways, I really hope for your advice. I've looked into Tignanello, their navy leather satchel was nice, light and cute, but the leather seemed sooo soft, almost too soft and on the thinner side. That makes me wonder if it's even waterproof, will it get scratched easily? Should I get Tignanello, Cole Haan, Vince Camuto or should I get an Italian bag instead? I think it's a good thread to ask a question, because I'd like something "underrated", meaning good value at a moderate/low price. Thank you so much to all of you who will answer me!:smile1: I appreciate your help and your answers!

Cuyana tote. I know this sounds nuts but I'm a little LV'd out at the moment and I'm wanting something simple, understated and practical. I ordered one last night. I hope I'm in love when it gets here.

I was searching luba J and I saw this! I agree... underrated and beautiful bags. Too bad they no longer make them. I got this red (balloon?) bag in 2007, and used it consistently till about 2013. Except for a broken tab on the zipper it still looks beautiful. I love the suede lining and the only way to describe the leather is squishy, soft and supple.. the pic does not do the bag justice.
