I did an IG live this morning to show all my most worn handbags under $500. If you missed the live, click and watch the video below. I did edit the video to remove gaps and repetitive information. I was showing the outfits ideas with the handbags in the live on a different phone but it wasn’t clear so I edited that part as well. You can find all the outfit ideas for every bag with links to shop.

Cuyana Half Moon Crossbody Bag

My most worn bag because of its size, color, and timeless style. It can fit a lot of stuff and the color just goes with everything. The bag also doesn’t easily pick up color from clothes or get dirty easily. The leather is soft and looks very rich.

The brand doesn’t make the exact style anymore but they have a similar style

One of my favorite handbag brands lately is Polene. Their handbags are handcrafted in Spain and have an effortlessly chic element to them. I feel like I am roaming in the streets of Paris with it on my arms. The style is very fashion-forward yet classic.  The bag also comes in a bigger size and a ton of different colors.

Botkier Cobble Hill Crossbody

This is probably the most versatile crossbody I own. You can turn this into a mini bag by removing the crossbody straps and as a clutch by removing the top handle. It also comes with an additional thicker strap for a more bold and edgy look.

Another amazing bag from Polene, I LOVE the green color. This bag looks very high end like a Celine bag with a quarter the price. The size and shape work great for everyday use.
