Fall means our handbag need a little more structure and substance than the summer tote bags that were home to sunglasses, sunscreen, and big floppy hats. It’s time to get on our shoulder pads (J to the K,) chic handbags, and faux suede boots on – and get serious about making money, saving the world, and picking apples. Here are 5 fail-safe bags that will nail your day look without breaking the bank (with the exception of the Stella one, but don’t worry, we provided budget-friendly alternatives for the same style!)
This Birkin-vibed bag tricked out with an inside pocket (with zipper) and two compartment pouches – one for your phone and one for your ipad – plus personalize it with your initials in glitter.
This bag may look like a great, roomy basic black bag – but it’s actually made from reclaimed bicycle inner tubes, making it vegan-friendly and durable, and its zippered top ensures that all of your belongings will stay safe, no matter how crazy your lifestyle is.
The newest fanny pack release from Stella McCartney is made from ECONYL© (recycled nylon) so it’s as sustainable as it is stylish. Perfect for school drop off to the gym or a long walk with the mutts, this would be our look saviour during the days when the outfit doesn’t get past black sweatpants and a holey t-shirt.
BONUS: Priced down alternatives of the look, not necessarily eco – but definitely vegan:
Luxury Vegan Leather/ PETA Approved Melie Bianco bags feature eco lining and lot’s of pockets. We love this one for it being just the right size for the essentials, and being able to be worn crossbody. You can also find all the Melie Bianco bags on their amazon shop.
Heeeey sexy faux-fur tote that looks expensive AF… be our best friend for the cold months why dontcha?! You can find the Urban Expression bags on their amazon shop too.
