And to show off that aforementioned scarf detailing, enter the River Island Brown Scarf Mini Tote Cross Body Bag. The brown faux leather paired with the antique gold detailing and scarf results in a bag we’d assume is much more expensive, let alone £36. While the New Look bag wins the points for likeness on a budget, there’s no denying that the Totes Luxe London Bag Mini is uncanny. Granted it’s a more expensive option (though still wildly cheaper than the original) but reviewers rave about its quality. And did we mention it’s full-grain leather and available in a choice of 12 colours?

Always remember that genuine Hermès craftsmanship is characterized by its attention to detail and consistency in high-quality materials. Authentic Hermes bags don’t include an authenticity card; a bag with one is likely counterfeit. Genuine Hermes items, however, come with a dust bag, clochette, and keys. More of an alternative than a dupe given that this one retails at £129. It’s crafted from real leather and features metal hardware, which is perfect for those looking for a smart, versatile option.

We advise you get yours quickly as this is sure to be a popular item. There is no doubt that Hermes exudes quality, yet the asking price of an original is beyond most everyday people. When we last looked an original belt of this design retails around $850.
