Hi bumblehoney, are these Tanos even close to what you're looking for -size, style etc?

I was in Banana Republic today and they had some nice handbags on the sale table in fall colors (toffee brown, coffee brown and black). They were 1/2 off ($90). Good size, nice braid trim and silver hardware. I got myself a tofee one.

I'd go to a Coach outlet and look for an all leather in the size that you like best...and pick up accessories while you're there!
