When John Lewis hosts a sale, it’s always worth a look as shoppers can often bag massive savings on high-ticket items like garden furniture and popular fashion brands. The current event has handbag enthusiasts flocking to the John Lewis website, with 30% off designer handbags from big names like Ted Baker, Coach, Chloe and Kate Spade.
Included in the sale is this “stylish” Ted Baker handbag now available for just £35. Usually priced at £50, the tote bag comes in a pretty pale blue shade and is large enough to fit all your everyday essentials. However, if it is a little too big for your taste, consider the smaller size, Ted Baker’s Crinion Crinkle Small Icon Bag. Originally £40, it’s now down to £28.
Currently cheaper on John Lewis than on the Ted Baker website, this accessory is made from faux leather and has received a glowing review from one user who said: “Bought for my wife as I loved the colour! Everyone has commented how lovely her bag is.”

The raffia trend is all the rage at the moment, with brands incorporating this summer-ready woven material into everything from shoes to jewellery and handbags. Many styles from Ted Baker’s raffia collection have been discounted on John Lewis, and the Niyahna Leather Bow Crossbody Bag has particularly caught our eye.

Having been reduced to £77, down from £110, it would make the perfect accessory for a spring or summer wedding. The neutral colour will complement any outfit, and the bow detail adds a lovely touch.
Elsewhere on the John Lewis website, savvy shoppers can find the moss shade of Coach Tabby 20 Leather Shoulder Bag, marked down now from £350 to a more affordable £280. Hailed as one of the season’s must-have accessories, now is a great time to nab it at a reduced price.
A wide range of positive reviews have poured in for the bag with one customer writing: “I adore the design of this bag. It’s such a good size for a night out and goes with everything. It IS small and I’d go with the 26 size if you want to fit more than a wallet, phone and lipstick. Coach is good quality for the price.”

If you’re wanting something slightly larger, consider the Coach Cassie 19 Leather Cross Body Bag in black, formerly £295 but now £236. Rated nearly perfect five-star by over 40 shoppers, the item is deemed a “must-have handbag.”
One satisfied buyer said: “Bought in the chalk colour! Such a versatile beautiful leather bag with three ways to wear. Crossbody, satin gold chain shoulder and leather grab handle. Amazing what you can fit inside for what appears to be a smallish but perfectly sized bag. Really is a stand-out bag for all different types of occasions.”
Although infrequent, there were a couple of negative comments. An underwhelmed user noted: “If any criticism I would say that the chain cross body handle is a bit heavy for the bag.”
