Buying a bag for someone this holiday season doesn’t have to be a stress-inducing experience. While the search for the perfect holiday gift can often lead to mad scrambles at the mall (or worse, fruitless clicks online), we’re making it simple by rounding up ten designer bags that are easy to gift — and easy to love.
All of these bags feature classic silhouettes, neutral colorways and plenty of versatility — stylish enough to carry out for dinner but practical enough to take to work or travel too. And with popular celeb-loved names like Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors and Longchamp among the brands that made our list, you won’t be met with quizzical stares from your recipient when they unwrap their gift.
Even better: all of these name-brand bags are on sale right now, discounted by up to 70% off online, so you can pick up an actual designer purse and not say, a Walmart Birkin. Designer bags almost never get marked down, and when they do, it’s usually during Black Friday, so finding these pieces on sale for Christmas is a rare treat.
From iconic Coach purses to a modern must-have from Rag & Bone and a luxe pick from Valentino, here are ten designer bags that are on sale online — and ready for holiday gifting — right now. Order them now to ensure shipping by Christmas.
Ted Baker Seacon Croc Embossed Tote
Already a steal at its regular $55 price point, this Ted Baker tote is further discounted down to just $30 for the holidays. The versatile black tote is embossed with the brand logo on the front, and the just-right straps let you carry this by the top handle or over the shoulder.
Kurt Geiger Micro Brixton Quilted Shoulder Bag
A quilted bag makes for an ideal holiday gift and we like this one from Kurt Geiger, which features a classic diamond-quilted finish on a smooth vegan leather material. The shiny hardware and strap adds a luxe touch.
Marc Jacobs Bold SLG Small Crossbody Pouch Bag
Marc Jacobs’ perfectly-sized purse is on sale for 50% off right now at Nordstrom Rack. Available in your choice of four colors, the bag features a textured pebble leather material with bold Marc Jacobs logo stamped on the front. An adjustable strap lets you wear it as a shoulder bag or crossbody.
Kate Moss, Winona Ryder, Dua Lipa, Debbie Harry and Dakota Fanning are just a few of the A-listers who love Marc Jacobs bags.
Madewell Sculptural Buckle Leather Shoulder Bag
Madewell may be best known for their denim, but the All-American clothing brand also makes some covet-worthy accessories, like this leather shoulder bag, which features a subtle sculpted design.
Michael Kors Emilia Small Saddle Crossbody Bag
Amazon has this Michael Kors crossbody bag on sale for 50% off right now. The canvas bag features an all-over Michael Kors print with gold-tone hardware and leather flap. Amazon has all-leather versions of this bag on sale too.
Blake Lively is a longtime Michael Kors fan while Gwyneth Paltrow and Olivia Wilde were among the stars sitting front-row at the designer’s most recent fashion show.
Michael Kors Winston Medium Top-Zip Pocket Tote
You can also pick up this genuine leather tote from Michael Kors, which has plenty of room for your laptop, earbuds, wallet and other everyday accessories. This one is elegant and simple, and easy to gift.
Coach Aria Shoulder Bag
The classic Coach monogram gets reimagined on the popular Aria Shoulder Bag in multiple colors and finishes. Even better: it’s on sale for 69% off right now on the Coach Outlet site. The crescent-shaped purse is crafted from canvas and metallic crossgrain leather, with a handy handle strap and shoulder strap included for easy wearability.
Jennifer Lopez, Selena Gomez and Charli XCX have carried their Coach bags for years, while Coach’s Spring 2026 fashion show front row featured Elle Fanning and Charles Melton, among others.
Longchamp Le Pliage Club Tote
Everyone loves a Longchamp tote, especially when it’s in the festive red colorway (though you can choose other colors online). This everyday tote measures approximately 12 x 11 inches in size and features leather straps, leather fold-over button closure and leather trim. It’s great as a work bag and travel carry-on bag alike.
Rag & Bone Slade Leather Shoulder Bag
We love the slouchy look of this Rag & Bone leather bag, which looks great over the shoulder or tucked under the arm as a clutch. It’s crafted from a smooth calfskin and features a magnetic closure and two interior pockets for organization.
Valentino Lilou Dollaro Crossbody Bag
Valentino bags almost never go on sale, which is why this Nordstrom Rack deal is one worth taking advantage of. You get this luxe leather purse with an elegant gold strap for under $300. Made in Italy, the pebble leather bag comes in black or red — both great options for the holidays.
