I was looking forward to seeing what the Amanda Wakeley TSV would be as I have become disillusioned with Lulu Guinness. I believe that the quality of the Amanda Wakeley bags is very good & has not yet been downgraded for QVC but I am underwhelmed with this latest offering. It looks very similar to the Lulu Guinness Frances bag & I am not a fan of shopper style bags. Having looked at the Amanda Wakeley website & QVC’s offerings I have not found a bag of hers that I completely love, there is always a detail or two which irritate. However, what I am coming to realise is that I have enough handbags to last a lifetime & I should use & enjoy the bags I already own.

don't like the awkward looking strap tbh

I would rather have the LG Frances. I keep looking in LG sale but have never found one in the right size and colour and now that I only work 2 days per week I realise I’m more likely to use a casual bag but am always tempted by a nice bag.

Oh goodness Ms gushy gushy Franks calm down, it doesn't matter how many awards AW has, it's still a darn ugly, ordinary looking bag, so yes my Forum buddies you guessed it after only less than one minute, over the channel goes.

It’s time she moved on & grew up from ‘I’m a girly girl’, ‘I’m a pink girl’etc.

Good luck to people that can afford that kind of money for a handbag and over £100 for a purse.It wouldn't do if we were all alike, I wouldn't wear the tsv even it was given me...it is far too big and awkward looking.I will make do with my small cross body kipling bag.:up:

No matter how gushing, manic the presenters get in the quest of getting a sale there is no getting away (IMO of course!)that these items are not value.If someone wants to pay a huge premium for such ‘designer names’ it’s their choice.Made especially for QVC is a definite No No for me!

Sounds like we lasted about the same amount of time, shopperholic. At about 12.45am, She of a Thousand Girlfriends was saying we need to be quick if we want the light coloured bag because it was selling so fast. I see it's still available and not limited stock or anything yet. It's almost as if she were exaggerating.

That's very true. And wasn't the recent Ashwood TSV very similar? I do actually favour this size and shape of bag but even if I didn't have enough already, I wouldn't pay the TSV sort of money.

Isn't the rose gold trim a bit passé now too?

I taught myself a valuable lesson years ago when I bought the Lulu Guinness tote bag - the patent leather version with the embossed head. My God it was SO heavy without anything in it. I did use it a few times to get my money's worth, but in the end I was happy to give it to my sister in law. So now I steer clear of 'tote' bags whether plastic or leather, as I'm too old to take part in the Strongest Woman in the World. It doesn't happen often, but if I need a large bag, then its cotton or the good Kipling one I use.

 

[boffy]

don't like it all the bronze is a nice colour but i don't do large heavy leather bags either

Ah yes, we can always count on JF to have a at least one girlfriend who like/loves/can't with out what she's flogging at that particular time. You're right Andi, seems there was no need to panic buy after all because the mineral is still hanging on.........phew! :mysmilie_17:

I agree SF, "especially made for QVC" translates to "quantity not quality"

I agree, but I would advise you to get in there quick with that order for six I know you are secretly going to buy for your girlfriends.
