River Island is selling a £45 ombre handbag that's almost identical to £2,700 Louis Vuitton version

River Island’s latest Spring/Summer collection is full of vibrant colourful pieces ranging from luxury swimwear to stylish outfits. Tote bags are definitely a wardrobe essential, but if you were looking at buying one from a designer store, you could end up spending thousands of pounds.

Most fashion lovers love having several bags at hand to switch up their looks, so spending a fortune on each one isn’t ideal for bargain hunters.

However, River Island’s £45 Pink Tie Dye Shopper Bag proves you can get the designer look for a fraction of the price, as the stunning tote is almost identical to Louis Vuitton’s Spring In The City Monogram Sunrise in a gradient pink and lavender.

As the bag is part of the fashion giant’s 2022 collection, it’s no longer available to buy from their site. However, one of these bags on a resale website is going for over £2,700.

River Island’s version also has a monogram print on a light pink background, however, it’s one a tie dye pattern rather than a gradient.

The faux leather handbag is an ideal size to bring on a sunny day out in town and will dress up any casual outfit.

It also comes with a matching £32 Cross Body bag and a £22 Pink Tie Dye Purse. While these are no longer available online, it's definitely worth having a look in stores as I previously spotted the elegant purse in Trafford Centre's River Island.

If you’re looking for something a tad smaller that is more suitable to bring around on a night out, New Look’s Mid Pink Faux Croc Cross Body Midi Tote Bag is currently on sale for £17.99 down from £23.99.
