This bag comes in four colors, including brown, black, white and bright orange.
This is another super-recognizable brand, and not just because of the iconic logo on the front of many of their bags.

Luckily, even the new styles are sold at Saks Fifth Avenue, so you can get your hands on a handbag without leaving your home.

Made of luxe leather, the bag also comes in a rainbow of permanent and seasonal colors from bright sunny yellow to clean white and everything in between.
This brand is iconic, and having a Coach handbag is an important milestone in any collector’s closet. For longtime fans of the brand, the classic “C”-printed bags in browns and tan colors are a hallmark for Coach, so that’s why it’s no surprise that the newer Gen Z generation has come to obsess over the baguette bags with the same pattern. If you aren’t lucky enough to find a vintage bag while thrifting, don’t worry, as Coach still carries this pattern and more.
Go for the classics when it comes to Coach and it will never go out of style. This mini crossbody bag is perfect for a day on the town or a night out, small enough to carry anywhere but bold enough with the golden C and signature canvas to make a statement.

The bags are top quality but are accessibly priced considering their craftsmanship, and they often have amazing sales running to make prices even lower. The classic collection is timeless, but keep an eye out for seasonal drops and adorable novelty bags, too.

It’s not hard being green. The Signature Tote is a must-have for its streamlined look and storage, but this seasonal color pushes the purse over the edge. The bag also comes in black, blue and two different gray tones, all of which are made of coated canvas and leather trim.
Another limited colorway on a timeless bag, make sure to check out the silver crossbody bag before it’s too late. The bag comes in another trippy dot print for spring, as well as other neutral colors like black and blue.

Feel like a million bucks but spend under $100 on this new bag from Betsey Johnson. We think this black sparkly bag is perfect for the upcoming holidays and New Year’s Eve, but you could also wear this on a night out or even during the day to make a fun and funky entrance.
This one is on the softer side for Betsey Johnson, and we love that. Embrace springtime with the floral and pearl-decorated bag. The crisp white color is a great one, but the black version can also be paired with any outfit, including any of Johnson’s shoes and accessories.
The Longchamp tote has been around for a long time, so if you don’t have one yet (or need a new color), the time is now. There are actually quite a few available on Nordstrom Rack’s site, meaning that prices are slashed to the lowest we’ve seen for crossbody bags, backpacks and the classic totes, too.
This is the iconic tote, and you should pay attention to the price if you’ve been eyeing a Longchamp tote for a while. This bag is marked down and is now just $79, down from $225. The gray color is also a great choice, as it goes with everything and won’t ever clash.
For all your XL plans make sure to carry an adorable XS bag from Longchamp. The light pink blush color is perfect for a femme look but if you want to browse, they have a lot of other color options including a bright red, burnt orange and basics like navy and black.
