Don’t get us wrong, we love a good designer handbag as much as the next gal – but for more trendy styles, we’re a big proponent of dupes. We just don’t see the point of splurging your hard-earned money on a purse that will probably end up living at the back of your closet a year from now, when you can get an almost identical version for a fraction of the price. Read on to find out 9 of the best designer handbag dupes you can buy on Amazon right now!
1. CHLOÉ FAYE SMALL SHOULDER BAG

The small Chloé Faye bag has three internal compartments and can be worn as a shoulder bag or crossbody, making it perfect for every day. However, the delicate suede flap makes us a bit nervous – especially when the price tag reads almost $2,000! Cue romantic photo of us and the Amazon dupe.

2. CHLOÉ PIXIE SMALL CROSS BODY BAG

There’s no questioning that the Chloé Pixie bag is super cute – but whether circle bags will even be in style a year from now is anyone’s guess. Which is why we’ll be going for the under $100 dupe, thank you very much.

3. CHLOÉ MINI DREW SHOULDER BAG

Last Chloé bag, we swear! The Chloé Drew bag has been on our wish-list for years, however the steep price has always kept us from biting the bullet. Which is why we’re grateful to the fashion gods (and Jeff Bezos) for this $90 dupe.

4. CULT GAIA SMALL ARK HANDBAG

Thanks to Instagram, the Cult Gaia Ark bag has become one of the most coveted “It bags” of 2018. And although we’re obsessed (seriously, how cute is the rainbow version?), we just can’t justify spending hundreds of dollars on a bag that has “trend” written all over it. Amazon dupe to the rescue!

5. CULT GAIA LUNA SHOULDER BAG

Another Cult Gaia bag that has been infiltrating our Insta feeds nonstop this year is the Luna bag. Between the circular design, bamboo material and beaded strap, this bag is all you need to ensure that your warm-weather outfits are on fleek. And if you can’t justify the price, just get the dupe (seriously, no one will know).

6. GUCCI GG MARMONT ANIMAL STUDS BELT BAG

For those of you who don’t have 2K to drop on a cute Gucci fanny pack (re: us), the $55 Amazon dupe is a great substitute. And even though it’s technically not “Gucci”, people will likely assume it is – and that’s A-okay with us!

7. GUCCI THIARA MEDIUM TOP HANDLE BAG

Between the gold trim, bamboo handle and crystal-studded cat head, the Gucci Thiara bag is fierce AF. However seeing as the Amazon dupe retains all of the same qualities, there’s no question which one we’re clawing to get our hands on.

8. DOLCE & GABBANA LUCIA MINI LIZARD BAG

We used to think we had to pay hundreds (or even thousands) of dollars for a good quality handbag, however Amazon is here to tell us that just ain’t true. Case in point: their amazing dupe for the Dolce & Gabbana Lucia bag (which we’re obsessed with in the millennial pink colour).

9. BVLGARI SERPENTI FOREVER SHOULDER BAG

If we had to describe the emerald green Bvlgari Serpenti Forever bag in just a few words we’d say “stunning yet expensive”. The extremely similar, fraction-of-the-price dupe on the other hand? We’re speechless.
