So there’s a little bag maker on Etsy and the bags look good online. Although I don’t own one yet.

My favorite bag ever was a Lucky bag.

Is $600 affordable?


OP here. Definitely not. Was thinking $100-150 tops.

Coach Outlet lists bags under $100.

Designer bags are not what OP asked for. Even if that was in budget the opportunity cost is high when you can find great bags for a few hundred dollars as evidenced by a ton of posts in this thread.

It’s more about finding a style you like, that goes with your outfits, and that holds your stuff.

I like crossbody bags, hobo/bucket bags and over the medium shoulder totes. I generally don’t use top handle bags, even if they’re from an expensive designer I love. So it doesn’t matter if it’s from Target or Dior, I know what size and style I’m more likely to wear.

These are perfect examples of “basic” and “striver” bags.

I think Kate Spade outlet has better products than Coach. I actually had the handle of an old one fixed by a cobbler, and he commented that KS is well-constructed and holds up well.

I’m eyeing a Radley London crossbody that is $200. Macys often has them on sale. Quality seems good.

I like Longchamp. Regular size is about $150-160. I’m a working mom with three under five and a HHI around $800K. I want something that looks good but isn’t high maintenance in terms of care and is not super expensive since I am hard on items I use daily.

What about Pom Pom London? They keep popping up in ads and the bags look nice, in OP’s price range.
