Channeling a designer look doesn't mean that you have to pay designer prices, and we're constantly on the hunt for great designer lookalikes when it comes to accessories — specifically handbags .
This time we've decided to check out Kohl's and survey the offerings, and we were pleasantly surprised by one particular find. This purse from Sonoma Goods is a home run, and instantly reminded us of a similar Bottega Veneta woven bag that is absolutely stunning. There are some minor differences between the two purses, but the one difference that stands out is the price.
The designer style is over 152x the price of the Kohl's version, and we always love finding great looks for less like this bag. Sonoma Goods For Life Laura Woven Hobo Bag, $40 (was $50) at Kohl's Courtesy of Kohls Bottega Veneta is known for their woven purses, and that's exactly what this Sonoma Goods hobo bag emulated. It's made from faux leather straps that are weaved together to create a bucket bag-style shape, which we adore.
The design of the purse is meant to be compact, but roomier than most bags. It's somewhere in between a full blown tote bag and a smaller shoulder purse, which is the perfect size for running errands and you're on the go. The strap that's attached to this purse is long enough for you to carry over the shoulder, and shoppers say that it feels "comfortable" if you choose to wear it that way.
There aren't any additional pockets inside, but because it's not super big, they're not necessary. You'll be able to find anything you need in this purse within seconds, so not having extra slip and zip pockets isn't an issue.

The original style is made from real leather which makes it more expensive, but the two purses have so many similarities that it doesn't make a huge difference. Even the dark red maroon hue are remarkably identical, which is a huge plus.

We love having different options that suit our style better, and enjoy looking fashionable and trendy at an affordable price. If you want the look for less, this is the bag for you..
