There’s nothing quite like spotting a designer-inspired gem on the high street that gives you all those luxe vibes without the crazy price tag. From the chic, timeless vibe of Saint Laurents Le 5 à 7 Supple Suede Shoulder Bag to Jacquemus’ adorable Mini Basket Bag, we’ve hunted down some seriously fab high-street dupes that’ll keep you looking stylish all the way through 2025.
If you’re not about to let your budget cramp your style, you have to check out the River Island dupes. And luckily, they’ve dropped a new faux leather bag that’s giving the Saint Laurent Le 37 Mini Leather Bucket Bag a serious run for its money.
The Saint Laurent Le 37 Mini Leather Bucket Bag has a trendy bucket shape, with stunning gold accents, and it comes in classic shades like black, tan, beige, and khaki. It’ll set you back a hefty £1,700. But here’s the good news: River Island’s RI Hardware Bucket Bag is practically a dead ringer for it—and it’s currently going for just £20 in the sale. Talk about a serious bargain!
©River Island In fact, this little high-street gem is a jaw-dropping 85 times cheaper than the Le 37 Mini Leather Bucket Bag. While its not an exact replica, the similarities are hard to ignore. Both are bucket styles with gold hardware, a top handle, adjustable shoulder straps, and statement branding. The River Island version, at just £20, is made from faux leather, while the YSL bag uses real leather, as youd expect for the price. Still, for the style, you’re getting more than a little bang for your buck.
This roomy, versatile bag is such a great pick for everyday wear - it’ll instantly elevate any outfit. Whether you’re heading to the office or out running errands, it’s the perfect size to fit all your essentials without feeling bulky. Plus, it adds that little extra something to your look, no matter what youre wearing.
