Designer Purses and Handbags for Under $150 Each

By Leave a Comment

I love designer purses!  The only thing I don’t like is the steep price tag that is often attached to them!  With that in mind, I’ve put together this list of Designer Purses and Handbags for Under $150. Please keep in mind that prices can change at anytime, so double check the prices before you make any purchases!

Looking for a designer bag that won't break the bag? These 20 bags all fit the bill!

Personally, when it comes to designer bags, I tend to go for Kate Spade, Louis Vuitton and Tory Burch, but I wanted to include a variety of price points under $150 and so I went with Michael Kors, Coach, Dooney & Bourke, and Kate Spade!  I’m quite partial to this Oops A Daisy Bag!

Isn’t it darling?!?  I’m partial to unusual statement bags, so this one totally jumped out at me.   I also love fair trade bags and the ones that Noonday Collection creates are gorgeous.  I’ve included them below!
