Elly Clay handbags

I've been searching for the perfect *affordable* everyday bag for what seems like eons and I finally think my search is over, thanks to Elly Clay! Elly Clay handbags are 100% leather, feature spacious designs with tons of compartments, and most importantly start at just $200!

NYC-based Elly Clay is designed by Crystal Haylett, who prides herself on creating useful, sturdy, everyday handbags that are also chic and fun! The designs are inspired by "urban chic, street style, art and culture of busy New York lifestyles". This leads to studs, fringe, heavy hardware, and other design elements you won't find in too many other bags in this price range!

My personal fav is the Chainlink Hobo (top left) which is constructed using glazed calf leather and embossed croc stamped leather, and features a handwoven chain link strap and tons of compartments (which is a necessity in all of my bags, otherwise I can't find a thing!). I especially love the chocolaty brown color, and I'm usually a black handbag kinda girl!
