27 Fall Bags You Won't Believe Are Under $150
I probably don’t need to sell you on a good, affordable fall find, but what I will tell you is that while tops, jackets, and sweaters are usually easy to come across at low prices that don’t match their luxe appearance, cheap-but-expensive-looking handbags are not always as readily available. I don’t know why, but something about purse shopping on a budget is just harder than other categories. Unless, of course, you shop all day for a living—then finding even 27 of them is a breeze. Well, maybe not as effortless as I’m letting on, but nonetheless I made it happen!
From little party purses to everyday work handbags and everything in between, I’ve found the most amazing under-$150 bags on the internet that look anywhere from double to, dare I say it, 10 times their price tags. To shop all my fall-ready picks, sourced everywhere from Zara to Barneys, just keep scrolling.
Check out this brand on Shopbop for even more affordable options.

Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
