Designer Bags That Won’t Break The Bank

written by REBECCA DIAMOND. August 9th, 2020

Bags are probably my favorite accessory, but this was not always the case. I used to do everything I could to avoid bringing a bag with me wherever I went. I would shove everything into my pockets and go on my merry way. In the past few years, however, I’ve grown to love and appreciate purses. Bags have quickly become my favorite accessory. 

The problem with purses is that they can be rather expensive. If you want to have a collection of bags you have to be willing to make the investment. Below is a list of designer bags that won’t break the bank. 

LA’CADEMIE Brea Micro Crossbody, $64 

I love this bag for work. It has a beautiful shiny finish to it with a crocodile print that will instantly bring any mediocre work outfit to a new level. The structure is great and the price is so reasonable.

STAUD Bean Ruched Satin Bag, $195

This is the cutest little bag I’ve ever seen! I love the scrunched look paired with the stunning, blue satin material. It looks so expensive. It comes in white, too! 

ALEXANDER WANG Scrunchie Ruched Satin Bag, $295

Similar to the bag above, this bag is giving me all the feels. The first designer bag I ever purchased was Alexander Wang and so this brand has a special place in my heart. His stuff is quality, plain and simple. And it NEVER goes out of style.

STAUD Moon Leather Hobo Bag, $295

This bag is everything! Not to mention, so reasonably priced. I see it-girls rocking it everyday on Instagram, instantly taking their looks to a new level. This is definitely something I might have to snag.

ELLEME Vague Pleated Leather Shoulder Bag, $445

If you couldn’t already tell, I’m having a moment with brown bags. There’s something so rich and luxurious-looking about them, and I love how they can easily go from a Summer to Fall accessory.

BY FAR Mini Croc-Embossed Leather Bag, $540

This bag is something I’m interested in purchasing for myself. The company, BY FAR, is great and I’ve been wanting a bag from them for a while. I am not a fan of big bags so this size is perfect for me. Not only are big purses typically too heavy and gawky, but I also think they look rather awkward on me. This bag also comes in a stunning brown, green, and blue color as well.
