There was a time when I would just use the same handbag over and over. For years. Literally, the faux-leather would be peeling off.
So, I don’t know if it’s age that has swayed me towards the dark side or just a more rounded sense of fashion.
But, either way, I now have a strong appreciation and love for handbags. And if I can get my handbags delivered for FREE in 2 days and keep the cost under $50, I’m a happy girl.
And my husband doesn’t seem to grumble as much.
Actually, I just bought a Cult Gaia Bamboo handbag dupe from Amazon yesterday and I cannot wait for it to get here. It will be the perfect accessory for when we go to Tulum in June.

But, handbags are a lot like clothing or music or food. Everyone has a preference. Do you prefer a big tote bag, a small backpack, a clutch, or a crossbody bag? Or something else?
These days it really depends on what look I’m going for and what I need to bring. For a day of shopping with the kids, I need to pack wipes, snacks, lip balm, and what feels like 10lbs. of other supplies. So, the mom-tote, as I call it, is 100% necessary.
But, for a date night with my husband, I prefer to carry something small and classy.
I wanted to include something for everyone on this list of 20 handbags on Amazon for under $50. This list is well researched. I read reviews, looked at ratings and read the answers to questions. You won’t be disappointed in the handbags on this list.

Bonus Tips For Choosing a Handbag
The most important thing to remember when choosing a handbag is to pick something that is practical for its use. For example, a clutch may not be the most efficient handbag for a long day of shopping with kids.
And a large tote is not necessary when going to a dinner party.
This idea also applies to how comfortable a bag is to carry. Don’t get me wrong. I love a chain strap, but if the bag is anything larger than a small clutch, the chain strap may dig into your shoulders. Consider this when choosing a handbag for a specific event.
To use a bag to manipulate the way you and others see your body, check out this post from Live About. The general idea is pick a bag that compliments your body shape.
If you are quite thin, a slouchy bag or a bag that is larger with some fun shapes and curves will give the appearance of more being curvier. If you have a curvy figure and want to create the illusion of being thinner, pick a structured bag or clutch.
