Marais Armand: Not a Balenciaga but Good Enough

Lusting over a Balenciaga but cannot afford it? Here’s a cheaper alternative from Sam Edelman- the Marais-Armand satchel.

Sam Edelman Marais Armand Satchel

It is more stylized than a Balenciaga purse but like a Balenciaga, it comes in a vibrant color. The bag is made of textured leather in a satchel shape, with a nice dose of metal hardware. The bag has zipper pulls with long strands just like the Balenciaga bags. It comes with an optional strap and has 2 zippers at the top revealing a printed interior. It also comes in black and beige. You can buy the bag from Nordstrom.
