7 Designer Handbag Steals from the SSENSE Sale

Tuesday, May 26, 2015

The SSENSE Sale is easily one of my favorites of the year. I’m already deeply in love with SSENSE’s minimalist-leaning designer selection, which is only made better by deep discounts of up to 50%.

I spent a couple hours plowing through 80 pages of deals. No, really, I did. Here are my favorite designer handbag deals. I’m hoping to share more favorite finds later in the week.

I’ve been crushing on these new reversible totes from Want Les Essentiels de la Vie for a few months. This one is soft brown on one side, rose gold metallic on the other. Two chic totes for the price of one!

This calf leather shoulder bag’s gold hardware details are standout. This bag is really slender, but perfect for a night out.

Few combinations vibe as posh as off-white leather with goldtone hardware. This structured bowling bag is a perfect example.

I have to feature just one more beautiful Saint Laurent bag. This timeless duffle is an investment, even at the sale price, but it will be a favorite bag for decades with proper care.
