Here at Woven Purses, we like to present both high-end purses and fast-fashion options because we know not everyone has $1000+ to blow on one bag.  We also know that not everyone’s love affair with purses begin with designer handbags. Women usually start to appreciate handbags when they are young, as students. And we all know how tight money can be as a student.

Here’s one handbag that we think is perfect for students:

Vans Weaver Bag

Vans Weaver Bag in Enamel Blue

The Vans Weaver Bag is only $48 from Zappos. The bag is not only affordable, it’s also very roomy so you can dump everything you need in the bag, including a small laptop, your mobile phone, car keys, and wallet. Not bad for a handbag that retails for less than $50.

It may not be a designer bag, but this bag has received good reviews in Zappos. The catch is, the bag is not really a woven purse; it only has a weave design in the front and the back.  It’s also very affordable because it is made of soft faux leather.
