Are you looking for the perfect gift for the special someone or even a friend who loves designer goods, but want to stay in the budget, then this gift guide is ideal for you. I have listed best designer pieces under $200 that she will love and actually use.
Yes, while I love to get something designer, I have often realized most designer gift items in that much a low budget are stuff that no one will actually use. But its really important for me to give gifts that are actually usable but at the same time look nice, so every time they use it, they think of you.
I am splitting them in categories so, even if you don’t like what I have shared you know what to look for.
Designer Leather Card Cases Under $200
This is my best friend when it comes to getting my handbag ready for going out. Usually party handbags are smaller and its really annoying that you can’t fit your wallet in them. A lot of them have compartments but they are so small or could only hold cards. What if you want to also carry some cash.
The Leather Card case solves that problem. This makes for a perfect gift item that is small but really really useful and they will thank you for gifting it to them. And it really does not hurt to have more than one of these as well. Match it with the bag.
