Bourne delivers glitz and glamour in a convenient hand-held package with the Stephanie clutch.

Love it or loathe it; there's certainly no ignoring this purse. Its egg shape is eye-catching, particularly as it's covered in tiny glittering sequins. And if we still weren't paying attention, there's an oversized ...

I'm always hesitant to spend a fortune on an evening purse. As I get older I tend to find myself settling in as the sun sets, rather than kicking up my heels. My opportunities for such accessories are few and far between, so I don't see the ...

Bourne takes us back to the 80s with this fun Dita Jeweled Box Bag.

There's a retro futuristic feel to the Dita. That's a strange thing to say, as it's certainly not cutting edge by today's standards. But I can just imagine a girl circa 1984 ...

Be an all out glamorpuss with this Bourne Lara clutch.

This is one of those purses that begs for a floor length gown. It just dreams of being paired with cascades of glittering diamonds, and a killer pair of heels. In essence, this is one for ...

I'll be honest, sometimes Bourne's designs can end up looking a little tacky. This is why I am glad to see a purse that still features its signature bright colors and diamanté, but in a simple and refined way.

The Tamara is quite large for a clutch, ...

Bourne gets pretty in pink with its Pru clutch.

The angular folds in the satin are really quite lovely, and a great way to bring the classic frame design into the 21st century. But perhaps Bourne should have stopped there.

The structured rhinestone covered bow seems like an afterthought ...

Bourne gives us a thrill, and more than a few frills, with this Katherine Clutch.

This is a purse for black tie galas and high class soirees. It's intended to impress, with its rows of ruffles and glittering display of diamantes. Even if you're not typically a girly ...

Clutch purses are de rigueur for posh evenings out, but every now and again you just want to break the rules. And when you do, this Annie wristlet from Bourne is an excellent choice.

It doesn't so much break the rules as bend them I think. After all, ...

Despite all of its flamboyant elements, Bourne manages to create quite a refined evening purse in the Cassandra.

This is a purse covered in sequins. Its front flap is trimmed with a wide band of mottled snakeskin printed leather, then dotted with rosettes made from the same serpentine hide. Take every element ...

Bourne has gone totally over the top with this jeweled Tatiana clutch.

OK, so this particular glitzy evening bag isn't quite to my personal tastes. The jewels look randomly stuck on, and I would prefer them if they were more symmetrical. Add to that a bright lime satin fabric and a thick encrusting ...

With its dressed up beachside vibe, this glamorous Tallulah clutch has the staying power to work all year round.

The tightly woven body takes us to the tropics, but in metallic leather it's much more stylish than any straw creation could be. The Tallulah gets another shot of style with hundreds of ...

If you want a black evening bag with style, then this Madeline wristlet may just take the biscuit.

If there is one thing Bourne understands, it is structure. Bags like the Izzy clutch are dramatic and beautiful, but don't take things too far. The same has been done with the pleated flower ...

Bourne delivers an alternative to fussy and frothy evening purses with the refreshingly minimalist Secile.

The Secile features a classic envelope style, rendered in snake print leather for a touch of the exotic. I say a touch, because this snake stamping is more subtle than many. It relies on texture rather than ...

With the Tara clutch Bourne serves up classic glamour with a dose of bling.

The traditional box shaped purse is embellished with a Celtic inspired knot design. This pattern is further accented with a strip of glittering rhinestones. The success of these gems really depends on the shade you choose, and your ...

The giant bow on this Bourne clutch nearly obscures the bag itself, and that is exactly why I love it.

Giant 80s inspired bows have been around all year, and they don't seem to show any signs of going out of fashion. In fact, if anything they are getting cooler, more adventurous, and ...
