This year marks the 25th anniversary of Fendi’s famous baguette bag. The handbag first hit mainstream popularity after Carrie Bradshaw and the ladies of Sex and the City wore it on their shoulders. And thanks to the recent ’90s fashion revival, the slim shoulder bag is back in style. That said, the OG will cost you well over $2,000. Luckily, if you’re a fan of the overall baguette shape, but don’t want to spend that, plenty of other brands have their own take on it.

Silvia Venturini Fendi designed the “baguette shape” in 1997. Essentially, it’s a simple rectangle with an adjustable shoulder strap. However, its material varies from knit wool and leather to sequins. It’s synonymous with casual, cool girl style, and, these days, it’s a favorite for celebrity and fashion influencers. In fact, you can expect to see a lot of the baguette bag this month around New York Fashion Week. Although little is information is confirmed, the Italian luxury brand is set to present a baguette-focused show on Friday, Sept. 9, to celebrate its anniversary.

Real fashion girlies know how to get the look for less, though. You can buy a Fendi secondhand from sites like Rebag or get one of the below stylish baguette bags for less than $100. Either way, plan to wear yours somewhere fabulous. 

The woven faux leather on this bag looks similar to the bag by the celebrity-favorite brand Bottega Veneta. The bag’s gold chain shoulder strap dresses it up, so you can wear it out on the town with heels, blazers and more. It also comes with a faux leather removable crossbody strap for more casual affairs.

You may notice that this beaded bag is a bit similar to STAUD’s famous Tommy Bag. However, this one is under $100 at Anthropologie. The black and white checkered design is pretty and preppy for fall. However, you could easily wear this bag through all four seasons.

Prada released a rhinestone collection of its iconic shoulder bags this year, and other brands are following suit. Score this glitzy baguette bag from Nordstrom for less than $100. You can get it in silver or black and wear it the next time you hit the town.

This baguette bag is for the gal who wants to add a touch of “old money glam” to any outfit in the colder months. The smooth vegan leather bag has a faux-fur shoulder strap that’s classic and trendy. Get it in camel, plain black or black with a leopard-print strap.

JW Pei Handbags have garnered a lot of attention over the last year and a half for being an affordable celebrity favorite. Its Eva Handbag has a trendy baguette shape and comes in 14 different colors for less than $60 on Amazon. If you’re looking for a baguette bag in a solid color, go with this popular pick.
