I personally like Cole Haan and B. Makowsky the best, although I've been a longtime admirer of Michael Kors also. Although their prices are in the same range as Coach and Dooney & Bourke, they can be had for cheaper at places such as T.J. Maxx and Marshalls. Even Cole Haan will have good sales online every once in a while. If you're still looking for something classic and decent at a more affordable price, I would suggest Tignanello or Etienne Aigner handbags.
If you aren't concerned with having this year's handbag, ebay has a huge collection of designer bags. I've bought two on there and both were legit. I don't ever buy things on ebay from another country just to be safe, except for a couple of decorations from England.
I agree. In my younger days I used to buy gently used Coach and Dooney Bourke bags from eBay - some people use them for one season and they are done with them - the ones I have bought have been in excellent condition with many more years of life in them - often at a great savings.
I find that Dooney Bourke bags are very heavy and I've stopped buying them because of this since I some shoulder, neck and back issues. I now get small shoulder bags from T.J. Maxx - they are slim, leather, lots of pockets and zipped sections - they fit fit my credit cards, driver's license, lipstick, mirror, cell phone, reading glasses and a small mirror - all I need on a daily basis and they are light weight. I have bought some wonderful purses at T.J. Maxx and HomeGoods - they will still cost between $100 and $200, but they originally cost double that.
LIEBESKIND consistently has lots of good styles AND the attachment for a shoulder strap, which I definitely appreciate! I hate the too-short straps to carry by the elbow!
Fossil. But you will have trouble finding a truly affordable leather handbag. They have become expensive in the last 20 years or so.
Have a look at the sale page on the Fossil website. You can order directly from them.
