M&S is a goldmine when it comes to affordable fashion. Their bag offering, in particular, has captured our attention with a series of pieces we’re earmarking for the new season.

When updating our wardrobes for the autumn/winter season, a stylish raincoat, some winter-ready, durable boots and a back-to-school style cross-body bag are a few wardrobe updates that are worthwhile investments. And M&S has got you covered.

A particular favourite satchel-style bag is the Faux Leather Puffy Baguette Bag (£35), available in classic black, green, and the colour of the season – deep burgundy.

This stunning satchel-style bag also looks very familiar, reminding us of a rather more expensive designer handbag – the Celine Classic Box Bag.

While M&S’ version is just £35, this iconic Celine cross-body bag retails for over £2,000 and is very hard to get hold of. M&S’ stylish bag, on the other hand, is still in stock and available in those three stunning colourways.

‘I’m obsessed. I need it. In every colour,’ shopping expert, Sarah Bradbury tells us.

Faux Leather Puffy Baguette Bag

This classic bag has a timeless appeal and looks far more expensive than it's £35 price tag. We're also bi fans of the olive green shade, or classic black that will match just about any outfit.

High praise indeed! Shoppers have also praised this fashion-forward handbag, with one writing, ‘I bought the black one. It’s very soft and cute. I love it. It’s definitely a keeper.’

M&S’ stylish baguette bag is crafted from faux leather, which has a soft feel. It includes a statement clasp fastening and a handy internal zip for storing essentials.

The Celine Classic Box Bag is an iconic accessory that’s a firm fixture on many luxury fashion wish lists. The ultimate small-satchel-style cross-body bag, it’s a classic boxy shape that houses essentials while adding a stylish edge to an outfit.

The Celine Classique Triomphe Bag (retailing at £3,050) is another small bag from the brand in this similar style, encapsulating the brand’s chic and understated style.

Inside the M&S Puffy Baguette Bag

M&S’ iteration may be crafted from faux leather (which is a plus for the eco-conscious among us), but it still features the clean lines and chic look of its more expensive cousins.

The chic bag has a fixed shoulder strap and an adjustable cross-body strap that can be removed for various looks.

And it’s not just the Puffy Baguette Bag that’s caught our eye from M&S. Any of these other cross-body bags would look stylish teamed with an autumnal outfit.
