Ladies - which bag?

[Lisa x]

For rucksacks, Accessorize have some cute ones (haha I agree with the no strap mark across the chest ) I love this one in particular:

And for across the body bags, Next have some really nice ones! This one is very cute:

And this one is too, but quite a bit bigger! Think this is the one I will go for:

Haha me too! I'm already in a bit of a bag dilemma thinking if I wear b00b tubes so I don't get strap marks at all, how will I carry my bag haha!

Yeah that's a good point, if you go for a pattern like this, you ain't getting a break from being the carrier!

I tend to use a small cross body bag - but whatever bag I use it has to have a zip pocked on the outside for my park ticket. Nothing worse than getting to a fastpass machine and having to rummage around for the ticket!!

Just had a look at this one...did you notice that they also have a union jack one (it is pretty also) that looks like it has the incorrect price on it. All the others are £32 and this has a price of £3 on it!!!! Just ordered it and it went through as £3. RESULT!!

Fab spot, very tempted. I'm sure I already have something suitable but I never need an excuse for a new bag!

Thank you! I have been looking for a little bag like this for the parks, even with postage it's a complete bargain and so pretty

Re: Union Jack £3 bag - my post count ie not high enough to quote you - what difference that makes I do not know, Lol!

Wow great spot! Just ordered 2 of my DD's - if they don't like them they will still be ideal for birthday party gifts!

Thanks

Hiya

Just wondering, what type of park bag do you guys use?

I want something big and bright with loads of pockets, that can hold quite a lot. Amy ideas welcome!!

Take a look at some Kipling ones you can often find great across the body bags with lots of pockets some external and a few internal pockets in TK Maxx for a fraction of the retail price. They have always been good for me and the straps didn't rub but were adjustable. They come in lots of sizes and you can get lots of essentials in there for park days or just days out with family.

The one I used last time was handy but DH bought me a bigger one 2 years ago which is like a Tardis inside it's great for itineraries, park passes , spare change, sunglasses, cameras and accessories , wipes and tissues, sunblock , water bottles all the stuff you need really. I found it more comfortable than a backpack and DH still had a small utility bag for other stuff like a camcorder spare batteries etc. we had it covered for our forays into the parks and they didnt take up lots of room in queues or on the buses.

I totally get why some folks prefer a backpack but this was easier than struggling with one of those when we needed things out in a hurry and they were quick to be checked out at the Security tables at the gates.

Shop around and work out what's best for your travel needs and try to pack light to make life easier. You are going on vacation after all

Fab for noticing! I just love the butterfly one so I hadn't paid too much attention to the prices on the others to be honest! But now that you mention it, for £3 I'm happy to ditch the butterflies and go for this one but looks like they are on to it!

It let me add to basket, insert address and credit card details and then wouldn't let it go through at the last stage! Never mind!

 

[Lisa x]

Oh hang on.........

How bizarre........

I tried to buy just one and it wouldn't let me, I kept getting error messages so I went back to the start and added two to the basket out of curiosity and it has let them go through, taken my £8.95 including postage and sent me a confirmation!

Happy days!

 

[stephensmum]

Ooooh bags! This is a topic I can get very excited about :good vibes

I *adore* Kipling bags - they're so practical! I'll be taking about 4 to Florida when we go in September.

For the parks I will have:

Multiple - this is a smallish shoulder bag which can have the straps changed so it turns into a bumbag! (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kipling-K13...E6KG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1335989188&sr=8-1)

This one looks good for IOA's Forbidden Journey as you're allowed a bumbag, anything else needs to be put in a locker. Anyone worn one on FJ?

You may be one of the last...because they have taken it off the site now! They either noticed or sold out

 

[clairegreenhills]

I might have been the last as I went back on straight away to show the hubby and couldn't find it.

 

[flortlebap]

Lol, sold out. Boo!

Well done to those who got a bargain

DBF goes hands free, he has cargo shorts, but I just can't so, I tend to take a small-ish back pack, that can fit:
2 bottles of water
suncream + cloth to wipe hands after applying
camera
purse
keys

I will be in the market for one as well, so this thread is very useful. I got a new back pack for our last trip and by the time we got home it had fallen apart. I wasn't very happy, as it was a Radley bag (the only one I've ever had a problem with) but I couldn't find the receipt to take it back to the shop.
