SQUIRREL_ANCHOR_LIST

Designer purses are an ideal way to buy into your favourite designer without the spend, but in this edit you’ll also find a range of affordable wallets and purses in leather, bold colours or with designer-inspired touches.

Think about your lifestyle and which style of purse will fit. If you’re a minimalist, look for a slimline card holder that can be popped into a coat or jeans pocket. If you have a multitude of cards and coins, something larger with a coin purse compartment is for you.

Consider the size of your handbag too; if it’s on the smaller side, make sure your purse isn’t the only thing that can fit into it, or treat yourself to a mini purse or coin purse for clutch bags and mini totes. And whether you prefer a hardy material like leather, a softer feel like suede or a practical, wipe-clean purse in PVC or nylon.
