Luxury bargains and gifting guide
Holidays are just around the corner – the cozy winter weather sprinkled with hot chocolates and chai! With the very comfortable feeling comes the opportunity to make holiday gifting a fulfilling and heartwarming experience for you and your loved ones. And well, it is a truth universally known that at any point in time a woman must be in search of a handbag! Whether you’re shopping for yourself or someone special, I’m glad you found this page, because you’ll find something good here! All the bags that I have shortlisted in this blog are on the more affordable side when it comes to luxury, ranging from around 150 USD to 300 USD.
FOR THE FASHIONISTA
For my fashionistas out there – those who embrace the force that is fashion and cherish the craft that is design. If you’re looking for a bag that is edgy yet classy, I would love to recommend the Expo Top Handle Bag by Kate Spade New York.
At the price it is currently at, it is certainly a steal! It has a niche and expensive look to it, which is not commonly found at the price tag south of 200 USD.
Why it’s perfect for you.
It’s got an awe-inspiring structure to it and doesn’t fail to catch an eye! Truly a statement – bold and subtle all at once. The bag makes quite a remark about the one who adorns it – harmless looking but one to watch out for. A very interesting bag in all aspects – it is the most expensive bag to make it to this list, available at a huge discount currently!

FOR THE CLUELESS GIFTER
For all those who are worriedly searching for Christmas presents – I am here to rescue you! I sympathize with you, getting women presents is really hard, especially when they’re super picky. I am proudly and loudly very picky. Delighted to be your knight in shining armor, I would happily recommend a chic bag that would fit all your gifting needs – Swinger Bag by Coach.
Why it’s the perfect gift.
If you’re thinking, “ummm this looks boring..”, hear me out. This bag might seem distant from high fashion, but it is a very universal little bag. It can be styled as a crossbody, a shoulder bag, a wristlet or even a handheld clutch bag! Whether you’re going on vacation, shopping, soccer practice or out for a quick meal – it’s a convenient bag in all scenarios. I can speak for all women when I say we all have that one bag which is a convenient size and fits all the basics that we need, and that we find ourselves using said bag again and again and again! This checks all those boxes – it’s not too delicate that you’d scare off using it for errands, and it's not so boring that you’d hesitate to bust it out for a cute lunch date with the girls.

FOR THE DEAL SEEKER
If you’re looking for a great bag at a great price – check this out. The Harley Shoulder Bag by Coach is the one for you! An absolutely gorgeous bag – all class and no fuss.
Why you should get this.
This bag comes in a fresh shape, not very commonly seen around YET. The wide carry-on belt adds sturdiness to its overall look and feel. This is the kind of bag that you will use for a decade without ever getting bored of it, because it’ll go with absolutely everything! Not to forget, it is available at a massive discount of 40% this gifting season. The metal accessory adds a vintage look to the bag as well. I love that it comes in both the classic color options – tan and black. Take your pick!

FOR THE SHOP-AHOLIC
If you’re itching to buy something new and trendy this festive season but do not wish to make a dent in your pocket, I’ve got just the thing for you! From one shopaholic to another, the Kendall Leather Shoulder Bag by Michael Kors is a must have this party season!
Why this will make a statement.
This bag is small, stylish and super practical for parties and fancy dinners. It comes with a chain, so it can be carried as a shoulder bag if you need to. Although, I would personally recommend to carry it as a handheld clutch, because look at the silhouette it creates! It comes in a fun red variant too, which is sure to catch everyone’s attention. The shapes and silhouettes create a super chic look, all the while abiding with the no-nonsense laws the handbag world works on.

FOR THE CORPORATE GIRLIE
Being a corporate girlie myself, I know about the endless desire to buy one more neutral tote bag. One work bag is never enough! Besides, who are we making all that money for? ;)
If you’re bored of your current work tote, I would like to recommend the Market Pebbled Leather Medium Tote by Kate Space New York. It is a no-brainer gift, and at a massive bargain currently!
Why you should go for it.
In all likelihood, if you’re a corporate girlie, you already have a work bag that is black. What I would like to invite you to try is getting a white handbag. It is sure to go with every outfit and you’ll fall more in love with it every time you use it. Sophistication meets the feminine – a gorgeous bag for all your daily tasks!
And, that's a wrap! That's all the recommendations I have for today, but I'm continually on the hunt to find the trendiest pieces and the best deals. Stay tuned!
