Marks & Spencer's trending studded bag is a Christmas party hero

Marks & Spencer's studded bag has designer vibes Marks & Spencer

Studded bags have been on our wish list ever since we first spotted them on the autumn/winter runways of the likes of Acne Studios and Valentino, with designers such as Khaite and Alaïa quickly following suit.

The Red team believe the right accessory can elevate any outfit, giving it a sophisticated finish, and the studded bag is the perfect example of that. Ticking the cool girl box, but with a grungy edge, they're ideal for adding an on-trend touch to many of our go-to looks.

Low-key yet elegant, and festive without all the sparkle, a chic studded bag also makes a great alternative to sequins – not only for party season, but for every month of the year.

Ready to invest? M&S has released our favourite high-street studded bag – the Faux Leather Studded Sling Shoulder Bag - and it costs less than £40. Plus, its oversized studs give it major designer vibes and really remind us of luxe designs from the likes Khaite and Liu Jo but for a fraction of the price.
