A big part of my job is finding expensive-looking high-street buys.
Each week, I bring the nine best items directly to you, our readers, and spend the rest of my time sharing other high-street treasures whose designs surpass their price tag. H&M is often my go-to for these premium-passing pieces, from elegant coats to wardrobe basics, but the handbag department had never piqued my interest. This year, that all changed.
It all started with the Shopper tote; a classic, timeless and anti-trend bag with high designer appeal and an affordable price tag. First, it came in black, and then a brown suede-look iteration appeared, and I knew that H&M had stepped up its handbag game. Now, I always make sure to check in on the latest accessories offerings just in case another gem is there to be uncovered, and today, I'm sharing my latest find.
Elegant, expensive-looking and ready to outlast moving trends, I predict that H&M's new Tote Bag will sell out by this weekend. The sleek brown shade has a classic appeal, elevated by contrasting white stitching to define the silhouette. As a tote bag, it's ready to be filled with all your essentials, whether accompanying you on your daily commute or joining you on a weekend away. And at just £38, I know it's sure to fly off the (digital) shelves.
