A preloved Louis Vuitton Alma in the Epi line, or a Speedy in the Epi line came up in my mind as I read this thread. Definitely a classic piece within your price range
I've added the Alma BB to my wishlist as well as the damier ebene speedy. Which size speedy would you recommend? I don't normally go for anything more than 32cm
I'll have a look.
I looked at the Honore 404 line by Longchamp which is lovely too.
I have a damier azur speedy in size 30 that I love for years. I've found it to be the perfect size, big enough to carry daily essentials but could still pass for a more dressed up event. I've had a monogram speedy b in size 25 before which I found the opening to be too small for my liking.
Epi speedies, on the contrary, are a tad bigger than a regular canvas speedy though. For instance, a epi speedy 25 is actually around 27cm whereas a epi speedy 30 is around 32cm. Hope this helps!
Which websites would you recommend to purchase pre loved Chanel from, I'm in the UK. Would you know the average cost of one on the second hand market?

That's good to know, especially as I'd be buying online instead of in store. I will keep this advice in mind. Thank you.
On Ferragamo, I have had my eye on some loafers and a long wallet a couple years back, both are now with increased price. So ridiculous! But all premium brands are doing this now...
Take a look at Milli Millu
I wil have a look. Thank you.
Okay. Do you know when during the year the price increases happen?
When somebody here suggested Longchamp, I was gonna say Honore 404. Glad you liked it. I've seen it in real life, in beige, I find it pretty!
I haven't seen the beige in the real life. I'm definitely considering the Honore 404 line.

+1 for more contemporary designers, unless you'd had your eye on a particular style. If you're turned off to high-end brands and the unwanted attention, maybe try Etsy for some cheaper leather bags?
Surprisingly here in Australia, the price has been quite similar to the US for quite some time. But with our dropping dollar, i'm really dreading the inevitable price increase
On a Ferragamo note, a great structured business/work related bag is the Julette or Marlene (larger version). But it may be out of your price range.
