Affordable Leather Handbags Brands and Websites - please share :)

Hi everyone!

Like most of us here, I LOVE handbags and can never seem to get enough of them. Sadly, because I am a uni student, i can never afford some of those high end designer bags that are around so I shop around for other leather alternatives (sadly not a fan of the plastic handbags and leather lasts alot longer for me!)

In Australia i use websites like:

www.mimco.com.au
www.bagsnpacks.com.au
www.brimelows.com.au
www.witchery.com.au

to fulfill my handbag cravings

Since this is an international forum, i thought it would be great to share some of the websites that you often look at for cheaper, good quality leather handbags, introduce new and upcoming designers etc!

Thanks for those links gone dotty. Being a fellow Aussie, it's nice to have some local options.
I do really like a couple of Mimco styles. I was checking them out in David Jones just a couple of days ago.
