Happy Tuesday! I had some extra time on my hands this past week so me and Sydney (my photographer!) ran over to Downtown Fullerton to a snap a couple of pictures! Even though for the most part I wear the same purse all the time, I like to switch it up when it comes to different events or different seasons. The title of this post is called designer handbags, but they aren’t HUGE names like Chanel or Gucci. All of these bags are pricey, but not in the thousands price range. As a fellow reminder before I get into this post, I did not buy these purses all at one time, nor did I buy all of them. They were either birthday presents or I worked my butt off to save up for them, because let’s be real…every girl deserves a shopping spree! π Let’s jump in!
1. Marc Jacobs New Q Natasha Leather Crossbody
This is my number one bag mostly because I use it everyday. I got it for my 18th birthday, which means it is coming up on two years since I got it, but it is in great condition considering that I have used it pretty much everyday. No rips, tears, etc., but it is looking a little tired! I got it from Nordstrom as a birthday gift, and it is usually around $370. They don’t really sell it anymore as far as I’ve seen, so you can get it from Nordstrom Rack (which is where I linked it too) and it is way cheaper!
2. Michael Kors Hamilton Large Saffiano Leather Tote
This might look a little familiar because this picture is from my last post. If you missed that post, click here. This bag unfortunately is not sold anymore, so if you want to find it you have to look up either the designer itself or other reliable websites. I would recommend either tradesy.com or fashionphile.com. Anyways, I found this bag on Nordstrom but sadly it is sold. I linked it just so you knew the exact name of it and also what it looked like. I love this bag whenever I feel like holding a big bag, and it literally fits everything. I have had it for awhile now and it still hasn’t gotten floppy, it stays firm, which is a huge plus!
3. Rebecca Minkoff Mini Feed Bag
I recently just purchased this bag and so far I love it! It fits the bare minimum perfectly. When I use this purse I make sure I am going somewhere thats a quick trip or an event that I don’t want to be holding a lot- like the county fair, lunch at the beach, etc. It fits my wallet, sunglasses, lip care products, and keys and thats all I really need. Plus, when I don’t feel like wearing black or I want a lighter color, this one is perfect! Plus its on sale right now for 40% with the link I put above!
4. Vince Camuto ‘Cami’ Leather Crossbody Bag
Simple, yet classic! This bag is VERY tiny compared to the other ones, so I really only take this when I go to things where I only need my phone, keys, ID, money, and lip gloss. This is my concert bag or my bag I use when I know I’m going to be moving around a lot. It’s so simple but still holds everything I need when I am going to the right event. I feel like everyone needs a bag like this in their life!
5. Michael Kors Adele Leather Wristlet
This one is not pictured, but I have one in the same brand and very similar. This wristlet in particular has a wallet inside, so instead of just shoving everything in you are able to keep it somewhat organized. If you know me, you know I love to stay organized! π Oh, and did I mention this one is also on sale as well? π
