The chic baguette bag is available in three colours – black, green and burgundy – and is the perfect accessory for autumn, according to the former Saturdays singer
Fashion enthusiast and Loose Women panellist, Frankie Bridge, has given her stamp of approval to a £35 high street bag that shoppers claim ‘looks luxe’. Known for her love of affordable fashion, Frankie’s latest favourite accessory is being hailed as an autumn must-have.
The 35-year-old was seen sporting the Faux Leather Puffy Baguette Bag from Marks and Spencer in her recent ‘Faves’ roundup. As part of this series where she highlights her top picks from various retailers, she paired the bag with not one, but two outfits, demonstrating its versatility.
The chic baguette bag is available in three colours – black, green, and burgundy . The mother-of-two chose the latter, a colour predicted to be a major trend in the upcoming colder months.

Made from faux leather with a soft puffy texture , some have compared it to the much-loved Coach Pillow Tabby, which retails for over £300, suggesting the M&S bag offers a luxury look on a budget. Inside, there’s an internal zip pocket for smaller items, with a secure clasp fastening on the outside reminiscent of the Celine box crossbody.
To showcase its adaptability, Proving its versatility, Frankie styled hers with a brown fitted cardigan and brown slingback heels, commenting that the ‘burgundy and chocolate combo’ is one you ‘need for autumn’, alongside some low waist jeans and sunglasses. She also styled the same bag with a burgundy leather top – also from M&S – the same shoes but some smarter jeans , reports Gloucestershire Live .
This bag’s versatility allows it to transition from day to night, offering two different styles for a more casual or evening look. The bag features a fixed shoulder strap and an adjustable cross-body strap that can be detached, allowing it to be worn on the shoulder for hands-free use, or as a top handle for a more refined finish.
Shoppers have agreed that the purse has a high-end appearance, with customers commenting: “Great bag, fits my phone, keys and a few other items. It looks luxe and feels sooo soft . I’ve got many compliments on it. It matches the loafers I bought.”
Another customer said: “Bought the black one, it’s very soft and cute, I love it, definitely a keeper,” although some wished the short strap could also be removed, adding: “It’s an absolutely gorgeous bag. Unfortunately you can’t remove the short strap, I only bought it for the crossbody option.. sadly a return.”
Burgundy is predicted to be the ‘it’ colour of the season. You can pick up lots of clothing and accessories in the rich shade including boots, cosy knits and accessories. Another bag we love for autumn is this burgundy woven handbag from Dune. The bag has gold hardware, a shoulder strap and an insert wallet for easy storage and organisation. Fiorelli has some super stylish options, too, and the brand currently has a massive 70% off sale.
