Great Bags Under $500

[kimair]

i have a bunch of bags from club monaco...the leather is really nice on them, and most are under $200.

the yellow one "jada" is $125 (leather, also comes in tan), and the red one "flora" is nylon and is $39.

To add my 2 cents to this thread, granted its last season but I know atleast up here its still carried.

Note that this isn't an official pic I don't think.

I got this Prada for about 700$ CDN a few months ago. I believe that still works out to just under 500$ US.

Its amazingly durable. I just wipe it down to keep it clean and its light as a feather to carry.

I'm not one who cares if my bag is "last season" so if neither are you and you can find this one, its a good bag at a good price.

Kale bags???

Not sure if this was mentioned before in other posts (and I apologize if so), but what do you think of Kale Bags? http://www.dailycandy.com/article.jsp?ArticleId=21881&city=4 (Attached photos from InStyle and Lucky)

Discovered them on eBay while searching Botkier bags... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=63852&item=6752894763&rd=1

The bags remind me of more expensive bags (especially the leather), despite all seeming to be under $500. Their website is at www.kalehandbags.com ... Nonetheless, due to other preferred purchases to make, I doubt I'll ever buy anything from them. What's your input?

don't understand the ring/tab detailing on those emily bags... they look kinda silly.

^I really like the brown Marc one!

 

[Manologirl]

I might have to go ahead and order that one!!!

if you are on a budget you'd be better off to wait for the sales, ensuring you get a classic style. bottega is particulary good at this, the styles reamain similar but the coulours generally alternate season to season

Has some great bags for under $500. I just ordered the Lolli bag by Reincarnation in pewter- cant' wait to get it!

 

[surfermegz]

The Lolli by Reincarnation bags are gorgeous! I know they took off after Laguna Beach on MTV, when actually the girl on the show was carrying a knock-off. There is just something about the rings and the style that I can't get enough of. I think the large size is too big though. Does anyone have a large Lolli bag? Let me know if you think its too big or if it's a good size please!

The colors are great and the stars love it.... Cameron has been seen sporting one all the time...

Yeah, mine gets delivered on Saturday and it is the large size, I'll let you know if it's too big. I'm small framed (5'1) so hopefully it's not too big.

 

[mjfan]

Is the Lolli bag worth its price? How is the quality of the leather, construction, etc?

 

[Luna]

Not worth it.... IMO... the lining that they JUST added to the bag (they used to be sold unlined) is crap.. it's a very think black material that you can practically see through.

No zipper either.

I dont think it's worth 400+ bucks.
