So, naturally, we’re on the hunt for the best APC Grace bag dupe. And honey, the internet is *delivering*.
First things first, let’s talk about what we’re actually looking for. It’s that clean, minimalist shape, a crossbody vibe, and preferably, a decent quality leather (or a convincing vegan alternative!). We’re not trying to fool anyone into thinking we’re loaded, we just want a cute freakin’ bag!
I saw somewhere that the Charles & Keith Charlot Bag is a good shout – apparently, it’s giving similar vibes for like, £85. Not bad, right? I mean, Charles & Keith, they’re usually pretty decent for the price point. I’ve had a few bits from them that have lasted way longer than I expected, tbh.
Then there’s the whole Etsy rabbit hole. Honestly, you can find ANYTHING on Etsy. I’m talking Korean Box Bags by Ordicle and Box bags by MerakiLeatherStudio. Supposedly, those are pretty much exact dupes. But, a word of caution: Etsy can be a bit hit-or-miss. You gotta read the reviews, stalk the seller’s profile, the whole shebang. It’s a gamble, but sometimes you strike gold! Plus, supporting small businesses is kinda cool, ya know?
And then, I spotted something mentioning Celine Box bag dupes… okay, slightly different bag, but the overall aesthetic is kinda similar, right? Minimalist, boxy, effortlessly cool. The article mentioned Marks and Spencer, AllSaints, and even COACH! Coach, who knew?! Honestly, I’m a bit skeptical about M&S, but AllSaints *could* be a winner. They usually do a decent leather bag.
Okay, so I’m rambling. Sorry. The point is, there are options! You don’t need to sell a kidney to get that APC Grace Bag look. It’s all about doing a little digging, reading reviews (trust me, read the reviews!), and being prepared to maybe, just maybe, have to return something if it’s not quite right.
