As a bag aficionado, I am constantly adding new bags to my collection. Last month I reorganized my closet from top to bottom, which was a very effective way to take inventory of every handbag in my collection. The bags in my wardrobe are a blend of premier designer and contemporary pieces, which forms a well rounded and versatile collection. Some of my favorite bags that I have were items that I purchased for bargain prices, which makes me love them even more. You don’t have to sacrifice impeccable quality or design in lieu of lower prices, which is a huge reason I fell in love with handbags in the first place.
I have been itching to add a new bag into the mix lately and have been online shopping more than usual (anyone else?!). I am trying to be a bit more budget conscious at the moment, so I have been sticking to bags that cost $500 or less. I have been delighted at the selection available right now, there are so many great pieces at amazing prices.
I’ve rounded up my favorite finds under $500 below. At this price point, it’s nearly impossible to resist!
Polène Numéro Un Bag ($420)
Coach Willis Top Handle 18 Bag ($350)
Tory Burch Walker Leather Satchel ($428)
Mansur Gavriel Mini Mini Bucket Bag ($475)
Nunoo Saki Clutch ($95)
AllSaints Edbury Leather Shoulder Bag ($348)
See By Chloe Mara Bag ($395)
Strathberry East/West Stylist Bag ($430)
The Marc Jacobs Mini Cushion Bag ($395)
Dooney & Bourke City Large Barlow Bag ($299)
Clare V. Midi Sac Bag ($335)
Medea Short Prima Bag ($458)
Nice selection, but I would be impressed if you could find a LV, Chanel, Dior, Gucci, or Hermes bag for “under $500”. 🙂
With the recent price increases for LV and Chanel those days seem long gone lol
Not loving the new “The Marc Jacobs” branding. I feel like they’ve diluted the original Marc Jacobs brand over the years with their different lines and just need to rebrand completely with a new name.
Coach is killing it lately.
That’s the exact green Polene I have! Had it for a year and still love it.
I was debating on purchasing that Dooney bag! So pretty. Great selection of bags you put together.
