At the moment I am completely obsessed with smooshy shopper style bags with fold over top corners.

Like the Mulberry Alice

And the Marc by Marc Jacobs THTH mini shopper

But...
The Mulberry is just a little too expensive for me right now (and also it doesnt have a crossbody strap) and the MJ has been discontinuied.

So my big question is, do any of you girls know of a simular style bag?

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated 👏😊

Givenchy nightingale. But think is comparable price to mulberry.
Plus, some owners have issues with strap clasps loosening. Discussion here:

I own alice. Has rolled handles, not flat.
Love it.

I'm obsessed with them as well which is why I bought this Oryany Jocelyn. It's a very well made bag with gorgeous leather, I found this photo on ebay so it's not my actual bag. Mine is all black and I love it!

I don't have any pictures right now but Alexander McQueen has a De Manta shopper (I think that´s the namne of the bag) which is similar BUT the price is like Mulberry or even more.

I would save some extra months and use my money for a Mulberry Alice :)

Uuuh yes... The Alice. Must see of I ever get to own that one. Its a beauty!

But just as an update, I had ordered the Marc Jacobs top zip tote a couple of weeks ago. Mostly because I needed a medium - large everyday bag.
I just got it the other day and when I put it on my arm, it actually folded over so nicely. And it looks even better zipped.
So think I'll stick to this one for now.
Such a nice color too 😍


But thank you everyone for your inputs 😊

Looks really nice on you! I thought it was discontinued, i.e. you couldn't find it anywhere. But good that you found one in a decent price ;)

No think its only the mini shopper thats been discontinuied, but honestly its a bit difficult to keep track of the MJ too hot to handle line 😊

Oh, NOW I see - your bag is from the new "Too hot to handle" serie. Anyway, both the size and color fits you really well.

Generally I prefer the old "Too hot to handle", but they haven't changed this bag much it seems, just the tag.

Looks lovely! I really wanted Alice but small is too small and large is huge. This one looks about right! What is the exact name please so I can have a proper look? Thanks in advance!
