Save, Steal Or Splurge – See Which You Can Buy For €25, €46 And €520

Can you guess which is which?!

Cathy Donohue

This series is all about bringing you the best for your budget: so whether you have €30 or €300 to spend, we have something to suit.

This week we’re focusing on clutch bags and have included three different bags at three different prices: two are from the high street and one is high end.

It’s always fun to see if you can tell the cheap option from the more expensive and you might even be pleasantly surprised to see what each one works out at.

€25, at River Island

This black versatile clutch is a brilliant buy, you can mix and match it with numerous different outfits and it will look just as good with boyfriend jeans and a white shirt as it does with a dress and heels. If you need a new bag for going out, then you can’t go wrong with this River Island one.

€46 at Topshop

This black cross body is another versatile piece: it can be worn as a clutch or use the cross body strap for a chic day wear option. A black clutch is always a good idea but the burgundy panelling effect makes it look a lot more expensive than the €46 price tag.  If you’re looking for something a little bit edgy but still affordable, this is the bag for you.

€520, Victoria Beckham at Harvey Nichols

Now, this is what we call a splurge. It’s very expensive but so is anything with a Victoria Beckham label! The checked detail is sophisticated and timeless, so this piece is one you will have in your wardrobe for a long time to come. We love the shade too, the blue hue is unusual and makes this a stand-out clutch.
