My Top stylish Alternatives to the Louis Vuitton Noè Handbag!

Monday, January 19, 2015

I don't know about you but I do have an obsession with designer handbags, however not all of us can afford their expensive price tags! So what's a girl to do I hear you ask? Well while I would never advocate buying fakes, it is sometimes possible to find good quality alternatives on the high street that are inspired by the designer originals!

In this post I'm looking at Louis Vuitton's iconic "Noé" bucket bag, and the high street alternatives that have all the design features which we all adore from the Noé!


The story goes that a Champagne producer wished Louis Vuitton to develop a bag for him to stylishly transport five bottles of bubbly & Gaston-Louis Vuitton came up with the Iconic Noé! This effortlessly stylish bucket bag is available in a variety of sizes and materials, but possibly the most luxurious of them all is the gorgeous, glossy finish of their Épi leather! At a hefty £1,250 it's not cheap but I'm sure you will agree it is utterly stunning! (I especially love all the vibrant colours!)

However what if your budget doesn't stretch that far? Well there are a few retailers that offer equally as stylish options when it comes to the bucket style handbag!

The first of which is Zara! Zara is always one step ahead in the handbag stakes, keeping it's finger firmly on the button of the latest "IT" bag styles & materials and I love the exotic leather finish on their croc leather bucket bags! Featuring the same drawstring closure as the Noé, it comes in blue and brown and has both a top handle and shoulder strap, giving the wearer lots of versatility on how they wish to carry it! Plus at just under £100 it's a fantastic price for a genuine leather bag and a great investment piece for those just starting out their leather handbag collection!

Next up is one of my favourite stores, Karen Millen! These days they have really paired back the detailing of their handbags, preferring instead a sleek, minimal feel to their handbag designs. However this leather duffle bag has all the luxury you would want from a bucket bag, with discreet panelling detail and beautiful soft leather! This handbag retails at £225 and comes in three colours: Black, Blue and Grey and can be dressed up or worn casually depending on the fashion mood you are in!
