Inspired by SavvyMode, who found some beautiful-- but PRICEY!-- options for one of her readers in this post, we scoured the interwebs for options that are on-trend but won't make you (as we did) fall off your chair when you see the price!
Via Polyvore, brand-new versions from stores you probably already knew of (some on sale, some just cheap by nature)- click the pic for the Polyvore set with links to purchase:

Do you have a purple bag? Are you looking for one? (Or another one??)
What is your cap for purse spending? Ours is $100. And that was the one time, only, and only because it was handmade of vintage leather (so sweet!).

Ooh! Ooh! Oooohhh!! Can you hear me making high-pitched and vaguely inappropriate noises, all the way from the west to the east coast?
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have 'purple is the new black' on my gravestone.
These are lovely; yes, I do have a purple bag (which I try not to use on the days I'm wearing my purple coat!) and I love that this color is popular once again. Isn't Etsy fabulous!!
wow all really snazzy bags. What a great post, I had so much fun with your post. : )
ReplyDeleteCool choices... for me, if it's just a fun bag, i would spend less than $100 but i am willing to spend a lot for real investment bags.

ReplyDeleteLove purple bags!!!, I use to own 58 bags (including beach, laptop, day, night, etc.) and it was rare it was under $100. The minute fake handbags starting coming into the market, I just stopped buying handbags. 24 of my bags (All Coach) went to my mother, I was so afraid people thought I bought fake ones and since my mother doesn't know the difference between a payless bag or a LV, she was just happy to get them. I gave each sister 2 handbags and my nieces 1 each. So now I'm down to my core bags with brands people don't recognize as much.
ReplyDeleteI don't even take pictures of them because for some reason I just stopped getting 'into' bags.
I got a magenta patent bag last summer, and my grandma gave me a fabulous purple/eggplant bag for Xmas this year. I put it away for the summer since it has suede on it and is definately more of a Fall bag, but I'm bringing it back out this week! Purple goes with waaayyyy more than you would ever think.
ReplyDeletehaha, honeybunches-- that's too funny. if someone asks where i got my bag or another article of clothing, i REVEL in telling them how cheap it was :P
ReplyDeleteso, guys, i bought ANOTHER purple handbag last night. i was at Off Broadway Shoes with a friend and there it was, in all of its dusky purple faux-suede gigantic glory. on clearance for $29.90. i do love. pictures coming soon (also scored a pair of spanish leather boots originally marked $255 for $30!)
My bag collection is not nearly as large as my shoe collection... yet and yes, I do have 1 purple bag.
ReplyDeletei have a really gorgeous purple handbag that i got from New York & Co a few years ago. i rarely use it because i'm concerned i'll ruin it! i should take a pic and show you soon!!
ReplyDeleteI tend to get purses as gifts from my mom, so I'm not always sure what she spends, but when I do it, it's usually under $50.
ReplyDeleteI have purple shoes, but no purple bag. :-(
