if you have a nordies rack near you..you can check there for a discount juicy...and its always good to check your regular nordies for clearance purses...hope you find something that works for ya...
I love my Chanel bag but everyone has them... Coach is the cheapest if you wanted designer... But if you don't I just bought this white like tote sort of thing from Baby Phat for like less that 80bucks. But I love my Kathy bag too, I recently bought this tan one. They're not very expensive and I love it~!
For a basic bag, I like Tignanello. http://www.tignanello.com/
The leather ones are very durable and go with practically everything. I also like that they're not crawling with logos like some other brands. Macys has them, iirc. You can probably find one for about $100.
