I love that Anthropologie bag and here's another one--again not silver, but metallic. Actually, now that I look at it I think the strap is silver.

Here's another one I like.

ETA: Just realized this is the same bag you originally posted!

What Tanya and Joy said- I’d look for a “ dull” metallic, pewter, antiqued or distressed unless your style is very crisp and ladylike. Also would be sure to get the right bag style to keep it comfortable for you. For example, I’m not good with satchels and large structured bags so getting one of those in a “ new” color would be too much for me. But I’m not very fashion- foreward!

Christina -- I am so glad you ordered the Rebecca Minkoff backpack. I have literally been eyeing it for more than a month now.

Has the bag arrived yet? I was hoping I might reach out to you when you receive it. My primary question has to do with size. That backpack comes in "mini" (too small); "medium" (just right); and "large" (too backpackish for me).

Sterling check back with me on Wednesday evening

I will! Thank you, Christina!

The bag came and it’s great! It is a little on the larger side, but that’s OK for days when I need to carry a lot. For reference, I am 5‘4“. I like having a nylon bag that I don’t mind wearing so much in the rain. I do protect my leather bags, but I walk a lot to and from work and can be a little bit worried about them. Also, the silver is very shiny, and you need to embrace that. On the other hand, since it’s not leather, it’s quite light weight.

It came with a dust bag!

My friend bought the same bag, Christina. KILLER.

Cute bag, Christina!

It is beautiful Christina!! Based on the picture, it is the "medium" backpack (which is what I want). I'm going to order it this evening. Thank you SO MUCH.

Just popping in to say that I think bags are important to your style - and a great statement piece for you. I don't have a metallic day bag but find my gold silver and pewter footwear is well used. Pewter is the easiest for me but I do like silver and gold a lot too!!

I believe it's the medium size, too, Sterling. Enjoy!

I have a silver purse I use happily. In my case, small sling bags are the ideal size so mine is not this big. But it’s the same shiny silver...and I still love it! If you are yearning for a silver bag, you get a silver bag!
