Dare to Dior?

I love to watch designers reinvent themselves. Actually, I will go as far to say they don’t need to necessarily reinvent themselves, but keep us on our toes. Over at Luxaholics, trendsetting and style watching is paramount. There are always certain celeb trends I’d love to be able to sport and of course there are others I could do without. Megs wrote about the Dior Medium Dior 61 Tote about a month ago. And in her post, Megs mentioned how the color of the bag was one of the best parts of it. Since then, we’ve seen countless celebs carrying this statement of a handbag around. But, let’s be honest, dropping $1,850 to get the look might not be an option.

So you want the Medium Dior 61 Tote but don’t want to blow your holiday budget on the purchase? We’ve found a few handbags that can give you a similar look for less. Sure, the shape and shade might be noticeably different, but hey, you might actually find one you like better! And after you look at the options, do you see one you like or will you save up for the original?
