While I love the cute designer bag moments I see on Instagram or Pinterest, the price to pay for such a gorgeous possession makes me take five steps back from clicking the “purchase” button. Don’t get me wrong— I love investing in finer things, but handbags are items I have yet to make feasible for my budget.
That being said, I love searching for quality handbags that look luxe but won’t break the bank. Not only does a beautiful handbag make an outfit stand out, but also having bags that look nice for any occasion is great to have on hand. I searched to find the best, affordable handbags that look high-end for a fraction of the price.

Anthropologie
I absolutely love Anthropologie’s handbags. Not only are the so adorable, but they high-quality and super affordable. Every bagI’ve bought, I always get so many compliments and people are shocked that the bag isn’t designer.
Style tip: The Bridget Satchel from Anthropologie is the perfect dupe for the viral Bodega bag, and it comes in so many cute colors too.
