I love a luxurious designer handbag or gorgeous pair of name-brand shoes as much as the next gal, but sometimes my budget and I disagree with each other, haha! After sharing my last post in this series, I’ve had a lot of you asking for more trending looks for less. They say that imitation is the greatest form of flattery. So, today’s post is all about popular designer inspired handbags and shoes and how to achieve a similar but equally stylish look inspired by your favorite brands on a budget.
You’ll notice these pieces I’m sharing today are not knock-offs. Knock-off bags and shoes are illegal as they try to mimic designer items down to the stitching and logo. What I’m sharing instead are some affordable alternatives that can help you get a similar look by embracing a color palette, shape, and silhouette inspired by your favorite designer.

Designer Inspired Handbags for Less
Similar to the DeMellier The Midi New York Bag
We all know iconic names like Coach and Gucci, but have you come across DeMellier? This British brand is creating gorgeous handbags that deserve just as much attention! If you love their Midi New York bag, you should check out this similar version that is way more affordable!
Bottega Inspired Handbags
I’ve been seeing some Bottega handbags that I love that have a gorgeous woven design. At $2,000+, they’re quite an investment, so I had fun tracking down some budget-friendly look alikes for you! This one I own in white (see below) has the same chic golden bow as their Adiamo bag, and this one reminds me of their small camera bag!
Bags Similar to the Goyard Artois MM Bag
Goyard is a luxury French brand known for its exclusivity. They’re famously discreet, rarely advertising or selling online, which only adds to their allure! A lot of their products are made with their signature Goyardine canvas, which is a lightweight and water-resistant material. If you’ve been eyeing their Artois MM tote, you might love these similar options from Tory Burch or Rothy’s.
Hermes Inspired Bags
Designer handbags come in a wide range of prices, but Hermès sits at the top with some of the most expensive options. While most of us aren’t looking to spend $20K on a new bag, we can still take inspiration and achieve a similar style for much less! This handbag is under $40 and gives off serious Hermès Kelly vibes, and this one mimics the iconic shape of a Birkin.
Similar to the Chloe Marcie Bag
Western wear is having a moment this year, and the Chloe Marcie bag channels that trend perfectly with its subtle Western flair. I love the unique rounded saddle shape! If you’re into the look, I found a few great alternatives like this fringe crossbody and this chic white option that’s just over $20!
Chanel Inspired Quilted Bags
It wouldn’t be a popular designer inspires inspired handbags and shoes post without including Chanel. You all are probably familiar with this high-end luxury brand. In fact, at one point, people were saying it was better to invest in a Chanel bag than the stock market. (Check out these vintage Chanel bags for sale from Belk) Their quilted flap bags are a timeless and classic handbag choice. I thought this black handbag and this tan one were affordable, super cute, and great options for a similar look for less.
Similar to Burberry Bags
Burberry, a British designer, is well known for their signature plaid pattern, and now you can grab your own plaid bag without the Burberry price tag. I love playing with patterns when I put together an outfit, so this backpack would be so fun to style!
