I love handbags. They can spice up any outfit, even the most boring one. Buying handbags for less is a must for me, because I have a need to purchase at least 2 new ones every season. I love when my handbags are matching my shoes and since shoe shopping is my another addiction, you can imagine how much bags I “need”.

Lately my favorite place to find handbags for less is Ross. Marshalls and TJ Max are good too, but Ross is usually less expensive and has a better selection.

I love shopping online for almost everything, even shoes, but I hasn’t been very lucky with handbag purchases. The last 4 or 5 bags that I bought online didn’t meet my expectations. One of them was much lighter than on the picture and I was specifically looking for a darker bag. Other turned out to be fake leather and 2 of the others ones even though were made of real leather, it was very stiff and just looked cheap. I ended up returning most of the bags and decided to start going to B&M stores again.

My second favorite B&M place is Target. Target carries some designer brands and sells them pretty cheap.

If I have extra money, I usually drive to designer outlets. Designer purses are not that cheap, but you can always find something under $100.

If the weather sucks and I don’t feel like going out, I still search for handbags online, but unless the store has free shipping and returns policy, I stay away.
