The Under-$500 Bags I'm Adding to My Wish List
I fully admit that handbags are one of the few items—the other being shoes—that I don’t mind splurging a bit on. A well-constructed bag, especially when it’s leather, can be repaired and worn again and again. That being said, we all have a price range we’re comfortable hovering in, and for me, that’s under $500. It gives me the flexibility to purchase an of-the-moment bag trend without doing too much damage to my wallet. Especially now that cool new designers like Staud, Danse Lente, and LPA are making this season’s It bags in the $200 to $500 range. I’ve rounded up all of the styles on my wish list––happy shopping!
First came the arc bag; then came this gem. Cult Gaia can do no wrong in our eyes.
The architectural top-handle bag has a beautiful half-circle leather base.
The amazing bag you’ve likely spotted on every influencer’s Instagram account.
