The Under-$100 Black Leather Handbags You'll Own Forever
There are a few items I deem necessities in my wardrobe (boyfriend jeans, combat boots, a white oversized T-shirt and a classic black handbag, to name a few). Lest I spring for a Chanel quilted caviar flap bag, however (which costs approximately the same as my NYC apartment rent), there seem to be limited options on the market for a sleek, elegant black leather handbag that won't require me to sleep on my best friend's couch for a month.
The hard truth of the matter, though, is that a black leather handbag completes an outfit in a way few other trends can. It's my go-to whether I'm shopping in SoHo or headed to a romantic dinner date. Regardless if I'm in jeans or a silk slip dress, I can always count on this staple. I know the struggle of having a budget that can't afford your taste, so I've searched the far depths of the internet for every black leather handbag under $100 worth noting…
A black leather flap bag with a gold chain is always a classic.
Let's play a game where we figure out how much I can I fit inside this mini pouch.
