Jasper Conran Keira handbag only £70

I’ve been a fan of Jasper Conran bags for some time even if I haven’t posted anything by him here until now. What appeals most is how he can make a great designer handbag such as this Keira Frame for only £70 as I could easily peg it for the £300 range in a heart-beat. [...]

Cheap £15 make-up purse/bag from breadcrumb

This may be a first (so many posts I can’t remember) as I’m featuring a makeup bag for the first time here. It’s by a new site/designer called breadcrumb and it’s probably the cheapest thing I’ve ever had here at £15. It’s always nice to feature something in the true budget category as I know [...]

Bottega Veneta crocodile briefcase (not cheap at all)

Sometimes I just can’t help myself and completely forget the name of this blog to tell you about a bag that costs more than and your average Audi J. Still it’s always nice to look and that’s something you would be doing quite a bit if you were ever lucky enough to own this Bottega [...]

Old but iconic : Marc Jacobs Love Clutch

So as you know I don’t usually like to go too long without featuring a Marc Jacobs bag (usually under a month J)  so thought I would review a bag that did achieve somewhat iconic status in the fashion world. This purple heart purse named the “Love clutch” was incredibly striking when it was launched [...]

So time for another bag review here at cheapdesignerhandbags even though i know a lot of you really loved the last post here on how to find genuine handbags on ebay (which i hope to do more of). This time I want to review a Christian Louboutin bag who is of course no stranger to [...]

So this is a change for this blog as I attempt to offer some useful advice instead of my usual handbag review. The subject is one that I’m sure most of you will be familiar with and that is how to you buy a genuine designer handbag on ebay or similar auction site? It’s not [...]
