There was a time in my life when I solely purchased handbags in the sale section of my local T.J. Maxx, and while I definitely found some cute ones, they almost never lasted for more than a season. So many ended up being made from “pleather” and would start shedding flakes of plastic after just a few months of use. Since then, I’ve vowed solely to purchase real leather handbags, which are infinitely more durable.
If you’re like me and value durability over trendiness, chances are you’re familiar with Dooney & Bourke, which is known for its classic leather accessories. The brand’s purses can be somewhat pricey, but you can get a great deal if you buy one during a sale — like right now. There’s a whole section of leather bags under $150 on the Dooney & Bourke website right now, with dozens of top-selling designs marked down 50% or more!
Some of our favorite options from the sale include a classic leather tote for just $149 and this uber-popular pebbled leather crossbody for $109. However, there are a wide range of styles and sizes available, so you’re sure to find something that suits your tastes and can be used for years to come.
