Whether you’re looking for a trendy piece or a true staple in your wardrobe, fashion staples can cost a pretty penny. Because of that, all fashion lovers are always searching for “dupes.”
In fashion and beauty, the word “dupe” means an item that is similar to an original and it is usually more affordable than its designer counterpart. Dupes look similar or give a similar effect but they do not claim to be the original item.
Handbags are some of the most “duped” items in the fashion industry and people enjoy these items because not everyone can shell out hundreds or thousands of dollars on a handbag. That’s where we come in… we’re giving you the best handbag dupes out there right now so you can get your look for less!
Designer: Chanel Boy Bag $5,400
The Boy Bag is an iconic Chanel bag that will cost you a pretty penny.
Dupe: Rebecca Minkoff Small Love Crossbody $198
You can get the same masculine, quilted effect with this adorable bag. It is one of her signature designs and comes in a ton of different colors and fabrics.
Designer: Hermes Kelly $10,000
The everyday person does not have $10,000 to spend on a bag, even if it’s one as iconic as the Hermes Kelly.
Dupe: Tory Burch Lee Radziwill Bag $698
Named after Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis’ little sister Lee Radziwill, this bag has the same iconic shape and silhouette for a much cheaper price. It’s a sophisticated, everyday bag that can dress up or dress down any outfit.
Designer: Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM $1,430
You can’t leave your house without spotting this iconic structure. The Louis Vuitton Neverfull is called the Neverfull for a reason — it never gets full! You would think it would be hard to dupe an icon like this but it’s not.
Dupe: Kate Spade Molly Tote $228
This newer tote to Kate Spade’s line is a dead ringer for the Neverfull in terms of shape, size, and silhouette. It holds structure like the Neverfull and is pretty much the exact same size, therefore it would be a great alternative!
Designer: Chloe Marcie Satchel $1,990
Many people have rocked this bag over the years but it’s also a very expensive bag to use on the regular. The unique shape and style make it a little more difficult to “dupe” but we found one!
Dupe: Sole Society Destin Satchel $69
While this isn’t an exact lookalike, it comes pretty close and gives you the same effect as the Chloe!
Designer: Yves Saint Laurent Medium Loulou Matelassé $2,150
This puffy little piece is a bestseller for YSL and it adds an element of style to any outfit. However, that over 2K price tag is not as enticing.
Dupe: Rebecca Minkoff Edie Flap Shoulder Bag $298
Rebecca Minkoff knocks it out of the park again with a dupe so similar, you’ll love it just as much! The puffiness of the Edie Flap is similar to Saint Laurent while the thick chains add an element of uniqueness.
