For a little while now, I've been after a black hobo style bag, which is not too big and can go over my shoulder. So in my local Sue Ryder Care charity shop a couple of weeks ago, I came across a black leather bag, by Designers at Debenhams. It's by John Richmond and was a must buy for only £5.99.
I thought it was fairly similiar to the 'Donna' bag, brought out by Alexander Wang last year, with the zipper pockets and slouchy, hobo style.

What I like about my one is the studded details on each side, which is totally on trend for this season.

great find! i've been lusting that AW bag for awhile now. and i'll always lust after any chanel bag! xo, mel
That is such a great find.
Wow what a fantastic take on the AW one! Another great bag from the SR school of Thrift!
Fantastic! You have such a knack for tracking these things down.
I like this roomy bag. I don't quite know what kind of bag I want - I still haven't found the be-all, end-all of all bags yet. But I do have half an idea of sewing one for myself....! Perhaps I will..!
SO DAMN JEALOSU! I WANTED THAT BAG REALLY BADLY.
That look a perfect bag .. I love hobo style but like a little organisation too x
That's an awesome find.
I love Alexander Wang style*°*°*°
Great bag*°*°*
Balenciaga is on my mind... and I want it huge.
That is a great find honey, it is just like the wang bag! I like the size and slouch
xx

so cool!
There is a bongo bag that's on sale that I think would hold my books and everything possible! Its a bit like this one with all the extra pockets.
But I hope it stays on sale til I get Christmas money. I sooo want it.
What a lovely bag! :) ♥
Brilliant buy - such a good find. You always will be the queen of charity shops not matter what they say about Mary Portas! I bet she hasn't got a bag from one xxx
you always have a fresh eye on finding good
things. i like the wang bag!
Great find, Sharon!

I wish I'd bought the one I found similar yesterday. Before the snow came. Now its just yucky and severely cold. I hate the thought of any more Christmas shopping now.
Errr...not to offend the Wang-obsessed, but this bag kicks some serious arse. Sooo much better than the Wang one. What a thrift, you lucky girl.
Now show us an outfit post with it :)
And have a great week bella
Fantastic buy, its lovely x
Hi everyone-I really appreciate all your lovely comments, thanks so much!!
Love it!
Lovely find! I like the studding detail as well! And you'll be proud to know I went to a charity shopping event over the past weekend ;-) I might be posting about it briefly at some point. Hope you have a lovely week ahead!
You know, I think your bag looks better than the AW bag! :o) Especially the studding detail -- those are perfect. I've been looking for another black handbag and have yet to find one.
Great little find Sharon! I love Wang and this is a great alternative!
Hi ladies-thanks so much for the lovely comments!
