Currently searching for a good handbag to purchase without breaking bank. I'm not going to use it on a daily basis, but I want one that looks casual and simple. I'm staying away from Coach or handbags with large obnoxious logos. Ideas?

Update:
I saw the following satchel at Dooney and Bourke, which reminded me of Louis Vuitton's Alma Nomade. One's $495, the other is $2,640! Questions to consider: Which one looks better? Which one would feel better? Which one would burn a large hole in my ripped jeans' pocket?
