No, You Don't Have to Spend Thousands for a Chic Handbag—30 Gorgeous Finds Under $300
If there's one thing I love, it's a chic handbag. I'm especially enthralled when it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Don't get me wrong. There's a time and a place for a beautiful investment bag, but if you're looking for a gorgeous bag priced under $300, I've got you covered. I've done what I do best and scoured my favorite online retail hot spots (think Staud, Nordstrom, and Shopbop) for some incredible handbag deals that I just had to share with you, including picks with intricate beading and fun pleats.
Whether you're in the market for a pretty everyday bag or a statement piece, there's a chic handbag ahead for you. You can expect trendy colors and silhouettes along with classic styles. Keep scrolling to score your new favorite handbag.
Wear with your favorite casual looks or try an all-denim outfit.
Santos by Monica is a cool indie brand that's worth checking out.
