High Street vs High End: Handbags

I'm not hugely into spending a lot of money on any beauty or fashion items, and would prefer to put my funds towards an amazing trip abroad. However the latest 2014 Blogger Challenge post is all about High Street versus high end products, so I thought I'd contribute a small post about handbags, which are kind of my weakness!

Here are two bags I'd love to get my hands on. The only difference between them is a few hundred pounds!

Marc by Marc Jacobs - Sheltered Island Satchel (£445 from Selfridges)



They say:  "Versatile and fashion conscious, this Marc by Marc Jacobs Sheltered Island satchel is the full package. Crafted from textured leather with contrasting colour panels that exude contemporary cool."

Call It Spring - Natural Colour Block Satchel (£32 from Debenhams)



They say:  "This stylish satchel bag from Call It Spring comes in natural with tan and coral colour block panels. It has mock buckle straps and a detachable cross body strap."

So which one do you prefer? High Street or high end? I think both would be pretty perfect for spring/summer 2014!

    1. I love the high street one but the handle on the high end one would probably make it easier to carry (although I'm not sure that is worth another £400!). Thanks for commenting - I've just followed you back on Bloglovin'' x

  2. Is it weird that I prefer the second one rather than the first? I don't think I can ever understand why someone would spend 400 on a bag, that's a laptop! lol :)

    1. I would feel far too guilty spending that much on a bag, but if someone gave it to me I would have no problem using it :D The second bag would look really cute with black skinny jeans and a simple white top I think x
