10 High-End Handbags You Can Get At Marshalls

We all see celebs toting their Louis Vuitton bags around NYC like’s it’s NBD. We’d love to rock a sweet bag like that too, but with designer prices being well over a thousand dollars each, how could we? Thankfully, your local Marshalls‘ shelves are stocked with high-end, high-quality hand-bags, most under $100 (and some under $50) each. Here are 10 high-end handbags you should keep an eye out for the next time you hit up Marshalls with your pals. 

Disclaimer: This is just a general outline as models vary from store to store. But you can be certain that you’ll definitely find a winner if you look hard enough! 

1). Steve Madden Backpack

Spoiler alert: you’ll be seeing a lot of designer backpacks (ones modeled after handbags) this year. Why? Because they’ve got the utility of your college backpacks without the hassle of holding your laptop, chargers, and whatever else you may put in it when you go to study. For your days off or just wandering around the city, this Steve Madden backpack is perfect. This particular one usually comes in neutrals such as tan or black, so you won’t have to worry about anything clashing with your current outfit. Just pack your phone, keys, wallet, and paint the town!

2). Betsey Johnson Backpack

For those of you who like the high-end backpack look but are searching for something a little more unique, Marshalls has a few Betsey Johnson backpacks in store. BJ is known for its feminine, edgy touch, and if any Tim Burton heroine magically lived in our time, this would be her brand of choice. The models are seen at Marshalls often feature a front pocket in addition to the main backpack, perfect for carrying your phone or earbuds. Since the prints are usually pretty expressive, it’d be best to keep the rest of your outfit pretty neutral (think a white top and classic blue jeans) to really keep the attention on the backpack.

3). Michael Kors Handbag

Okay, okay, this one is on the pricier side, but for good reason! Not only will you be sporting a world-renowned brand, but you’ll be doing so at a fraction of the cost of a current (as in from this year) Michael Kors bag. There are a few different styles, but these bags do fall on the larger side, so they’re much more use-based than some, but they definitely don’t skimp on style. If you’re partial to the MK logo, keep your eyes peeled for a bag that displays it from all angles. Fancy something subtler? They also come in colors such as pale pink, red, and camel, to suit any of your daily looks.

4). Tommy Hilfiger Handbag

German-origin brand Tommy Hilfiger has become quite popular in the states over the past few decades, and for the price of a few hours of work at minimum wage, you could own your very own TH handbag. These particular handbags would qualify as modern-classic, with a nautical twist. At any Mashall’s you’ll likely be able to find a couple versions of this handbag- one set headlining Tommy’s famous black and red blocked logo, another being completely one color (black is popular). Release your inner East Coast Girl and get one for yourself!

5). London Fog Handbag

One of the lesser-known (at least in the U.S.) designer companies out there is London Fog. But don’t let their lack of popularity fool you- the brand has gorgeous, timeless designs that are sure to last you half a century (or at least well into your post-college life). The bags are made with lots of travel in mind- so be sure to check out if they have any cute LF luggage at your Marshall’s too. Style tip: place a classy, colorful silk scarf on your handbag’s handle. Brilliant!

6). Aldo Handbag

With its clean lines and geometric features, Quebec-based ALDO couldn’t be chicer. The bag will often come in a clutch or in an over-the-shoulder bag, both equally gorgeous. What’s more, is that this company focuses on ethical sourcing- so you can treat yourself to this baby guilt-free. If you’re a fan of details, this range is for you. Almost all of the ALDO handbags boast ornate buckles and will often mix and match prints in a similar, yet slightly more sophisticated way than Betsey Johnson. One night out with this stunner and you’ll catch yourself saying, “Gucci who?”.

7). Bebe handbag

No, this brand isn’t just for two-time grammy-nominated Bebe Rexha (although she is a brand ambassador). Bebe’s always been known for their edgy twists on business attire, but recently they’ve also been promoting self-love and body positivity. It’d be great to buy a killer bag directly from the company, but most of our credit card plans simply won’t allow it (sigh). But that shouldn’t stop you from adding a Bebe handbag to your collection. The beauties usually stick with one print (such as faux snakeskin) so they’re basically a staple that can go with anything. Now if only the same logic applied to lucky charms…

8). Calvin Klein Handbag

There’s no way this list would’ve gone without a show-stopping Calvin Klein addition. The big name in high fashion isn’t just known for underwear- their quality handbags showcase purpose and panache without being over-the-top. And for about sixty bucks, you can get a large CK bag from Marshalls (with or without an all-over set of logos). Heck, this bag may even be big enough to store your laptop in- so you can head to your local coffee corner and soak up all that free wifi in high style.

9). Kenneth Cole Reaction Handbag

The final handbag on this list is one by the name of Kenneth Cole Reaction, a company whose purpose is to showcase who the person is, not just what they’re wearing. As the great Coco Chanel once said, “Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman”. You could make a similar statement for a measly price! Add an unforgettable New York flair to your closet with a KCR handbag.

10). Joseph D’Arezzo Crossbody Bag

Whoever said that the round canteen-style bag was outdated clearly hasn’t seen this one. Not only is it a beautiful color, but it’s got tons of room to carry all of your stuff!
