This autumn, suede is one of the top trending textures of the season. It adds a touch of luxury and class to any outfit, and one of the easiest ways to incorporate it into your wardrobe is through a handbag.
Suede handbags are a timeless classic, especially when they come in a chic, relaxed tote style that you can use everywhere from the office to a trip away. However suede, or even suede-effect materials, can be pricey, which is why we couldn’t believe our eyes when we spotted the UKETO Suede Tote Bag for £38.99 on Amazon.

Not only does it look far more expensive than it’s under £40 price tag, the Amazon find is also giving us major The Row vibes, with a similar shape and style to the brand’s sold-out Margaux 17 Bag in Suede, which retails for a whopping £5190. Despite it’s budget-friendly price tag, the Amazon bag is made from suede with a classic rounded rectangular shape that makes it look super high end.
It’s also spacious enough to be used for things like travelling or for the office, measuring 24cm high and 33cm long – perfect for carrying a tablet or small laptop in. It also has multiple internal compartments and pockets too, so you can easily stash your phone, wallet, headphones and keys to hand.
As well as having two grab-top handles, the UKETO Suede Tote Bag also has an adjustable long shoulder strap, so you can wear it as a cross-body style or over your arm or shoulder depending on your preference – and how many thing you're carrying.
Although the bag currently has a minor discount – down from £39.99 to £38.99 – there are also several codes available to help save you more money on Amazon. You can use the code UYCWOGPC to get 5% off, and it also qualifies for a multi-purchase discount, meaning if you snap up more than one you’ll get 15% off.
One Amazon reviewer wrote: “Softer in shape than expected but prefer it. Steady yet soft. Good size.”
If you’re a big fan of slouchy suede bags, you’ll also love the Ashwood Leather Tocco di Lusso Leather Brown Suede Bag, which has a massive 61% saving at Debenhams right now. Rather than its usual price of £129, it’s currently reduced to £49.99, saving you almost £80.
It’s made from real leather with a suede finish, and has an oversized slouchy style that’s perfect for any occasion. It has a shoulder strap and a relaxed, unstructured shape that’s perfect for nailing the boho trend right now, but it’s still timeless enough that it’ll be a go-to bag in your wardrobe for years to come.
