In the Vanderpump Rules Season 11 premiere, Lala Kent, Katie Maloney, Ariana Madix, and Scheana Shay got together for a much-needed girls' night out.
While there was a lot to talk about — and when isn't there, with this crew? — one thing immediately caught everyone's eye. Say it with us now: Katie's new bag. Everyone at the table noticed the sparkly designer clutch she was rocking. It makes sense: stylish, versatile, and just effortlessly cool, the glam accessory was the ideal going-out bag.
Even better, Lala had the same one. Well, kind of. They held up similar bags, joking about matching, before Lala identified the brand of Katie's couture piece. Understandably, Katie assumed she and Lala were legit accessory twins. That is, until the clothing and makeup entrepreneur, and ever-practical Virgo, revealed that she went a different route: Her bag was a much more affordable twist on Katie's designer clutch.
Here's what everyone's talking about on Bravo:

This got us thinking: Could we be saving more on our most-wanted pieces? With a budget of, say, $200 at the most, could we find a selection of cute bags to show off to our besties? The answer was a resounding yes.
So, we made a list of the best going-out bags under $200 that you (and really, all of us) can buy right now. Like, right here, right now. Just keep scrolling for the crossbody, clutch, tote, or convertible bag of your dreams, from a variety of labels you know, and maybe a few you don't. But what's better than discovering an affordable new brand to love?
Sure, maybe spending less when you could be spending more isn't what Lisa Vanderpump herself would do, but we aren't all internationally renowned bar, restaurant, and club owners yet. In the meantime, channel your inner Lala, and spring for an option that will have everyone fooled.
