Now, we all know how popular Marks & Spencer’s £35 cross-body bag has become - and it may have something to do with it looking super-similar to Celine’s pricier £2,950 version.
It seems New Look has also jumped on the Celine dupe hype, as the retailer has just dropped this classic Black Leather-Look Cross-Body Bag which is not only significantly cheaper than the designer version, but M&S’s too.
Priced at just £24.99, the bag is over £10 cheaper than Marks & Spencer’s best-selling accessory - and you can hardly tell a difference between the two as both boast a sleek boxy shape, a leather-look finish and luxe gold-tone hardware at the front.
The stunning Celine dupe comes in three colours and features an adjustable strapThe budget-friendly bag also features an adjustable strap, a popper-front fastening and comes in three colours; black, mink and khaki.
Not only is the bag super stylish, but it’s functional too, featuring three spacious compartments, a zipped inside pocket and a button-fastening to keep all your valuables nice and secure when you’re out and about.

It’s received plenty of five-star reviews too from delighted New Look customers, with one fan saying: “I’ve seen many bags similar to this but I have to say this is the best one! It has a button fastening rather than a clasp so I don’t have to worry about it becoming loose or faulty like some other dupes.”
A second added: “It’s beautiful! Looks so much more expensive than it is and is a good size for everyday wear to go out and about. Love how elegant it is.”
While a third wrote: “Incredible bag for the price. It is really well made and the colour is really beautiful. I only wish that the strap was connected to the base of the bag and not the bag flap as I worry it won't be durable in the long run. Other than that I love this bag and want it in every colour.”
Many shoppers mentioned how the bag looks more expensive than it is, and even preferred it to M&S’s dupe as it has a ‘button-fastening’ rather than a ‘push-lock fastening’ which shoppers have found comes undone easily.
So, if you’re after an accessory that will elevate just about any outfit in your wardrobe all-year-long, we’d pick up this £24.99 Cross Body Bag now before it goes out of stock!
While New Looks bag is the perfect affordable alternative, you can’t go wrong with the original - crafted from smooth, calfskin leather on the outside, lambskin inner and gold fastening to give it that luxe finish.
