Although I encourage you to shop locally, and/or with independent designers, sometimes the best places to find vegan handbags are stores like Urban Outfitters & Topshop. They work hard to produce on trend items at affordable prices – which means that shoes & bags are produced in PU as opposed to leather. I won’t get in to whether PU is eco-friendly or not (it’s definitely up for debate), but if you’re a vegan, your options are quite limited…most “vegan leather” pieces are PU.
Topshop US is really one of my new favorite places for shoe/bag shopping because I love their utilitarian, current pieces. Especially this bag – can you imagine carrying it all weekend, or for work or school? At $70 it’s not cheap, but it’s a good price for a vegan handbag that you’ll want to carry constantly:
