Vintage without the Must – Sabina Glazed Leather
Best Price: Urban Outfitters for $74.99
Sabina is an established name in the purse industry – well, the accessible purse industry. With the Glazed Leather Square Bag, the brand has managed to capture the look and feel of vintage purses astoundingly well.
Old Navy Small Canvas Hobos
Best Price: Old Navy for $16.50
I know I know, I’m recommending items all over the pricing spectrum, but really, these purses are great finds.
The Woven Tote
Best Price: Urban Outfitters for $19.99
I love woven totes and textures – they seem to give a bag sort of a bohemian and natural feel, yet they manage to fully exude sophistication.
Linea Pelle – Dylan Patchwork Convertible Clutch
Best Price: BlueFly for $86.39
The most I’ve ever spent on a purse is $130.00 (and even then I felt somewhat guilty) – that’s not to say that I don’t own many or that I’m not open to owning some great purses, but at the turning point from student to professional, it gets quite hard to “invest” in a purse (when that money could go towards something great like a phone or…redecorating an entire room).
Deena and Ozzy Chain Purse
Best Price: Urban Outfitters for $48.00
Real leather at a not-real leather price – this Deena and Ozzy Chain Purse embraces one of my absolute favourite styles as of right now (chains that is). It’s compacted yet still roomy enough to keep the necessities, this bag is exclusive to Urban Outfitters.
Payless Shoe Source – Alice and Olivia Hobo
Best Price: Payless for $40.00
I’ll admit – I like my leather, which you won’t likely get in a bag form from Payless. But what I’m here to do is to open your eyes up to a more affordable alternative than going to a big retailer, Payless bags have clout to them as they have designers like Alice and Olivia on their side.
