Your Favorite Non-Designer Handbag?

This bag probably doesn't count, as it retails for $600, but I found it on Rue La La years ago for $150 and snatched it up in black and brown. It's a fabulous bag. Hold's what you need, goes from day-to-night easily, does dressy and casual, edgy and chic :smile:. I get a million compliments on it.

Most I've spent on a bag - ~$1500 - for my Fendi 2jours and my YSL Cabas. My Balenciaga City was just a little bit less at about $1400. None were full-price, all were worth it :smile:.

I have a Lucky Stash Bag! I've had that bag for a long time and it's been tortured and still looks good! I also have a Lucky Whipstitch Tote; also a great bag. Those Lucky bags would probably be my favorite non-designer brand bags. I also have a large American Eagle messenger that I've used for work/travel for over a decade. It's still a great bag.


That bag is so amazing! If I didn't already have so many bags I would absolutely buy another one in black. The only thing I'm not crazy about on mine is the color.
 
1. Fossil Crossbody, Jansport Backpack (does this count as a purse? lol)
2. $30
3. School and sometimes for travel/days when I'm being lazy
4. Fossil, Ecote, Jansport, the Sak
5. $150 (my most expensive ones have been gifts)

I just googled the lucky stash and it looks so versatile. My fav thing about lucky brand in general is how practical it is.

Happiness is not about how much you have, but how little you need.
 
A canvas Fossil cross body for $26 at Macy's. Pink with bumblebee print.
Use it regularly because indestructible, cute in its own way, and straps detach so it can be used a toiletry bag. Best bag-bargain ever! :smile:
Most I spent on a bag was about $2900 for an LV empreinte speedy.. which I dont have anymore.
 
Its been a while since I first posted and my answers are all drastically changed!

1. I recently got a bag in Florence that has gorgeous embossed leather. I see this leather in a lot of places for different bags but for some reason I loved this one. I've been wearing it so much and I can stuff all kinds of stuff inside - so roomy!

2. 45€ - I'm pretty sure I got ripped off but I haven't seen this exact bag anywhere else.

3. I use it whenever I have to take short trips from Paris to London and sometimes on the wknds. It just fits so much and has a ton of pockets.

4. I'm gonna skip this one cuz i have stopped shopping for bags in general retail stores.....

5. €1400 Bal city
