LEIGH CAMPBELL: '29 handbags under $100 that are practical and chic.'

Welcome to the Nothing To Wear Edit where each week we curate the best picks from the topic we spoke about on the podcast. Listen to the full episode here.


This week’s episode was all about handbags — the cult designer brands and the history behind each style, the most common styles women love to carry, and a long list of brands to look into.

I loved learning about the backstory of iconic handbags, but the reality is not everyone wants to spend thousands on one, or even hundreds. So, here are my top picks of wonderful bags — big, small, bright, black and everything in between for under $100.
