A truly unique and eye catching bag design is worth shelling out on, and this Botkier Orion shoulder bag is definitely unique.

The shape of this purse is the biggest selling point. It adds a wonderful dose of structure, and the firm quality of the smooth leather is a great contrast. I particularly enjoy the cute but subtle studding on the panels.

Of course, bright in-your-face fuchsia isn't going to suit everyone, and it is shame that you can't buy this unusual handbag in any other colours. In addition, I am not particularly a fan of the bright and somewhat garish silver chain handle. With the main body of this angular purse already so bright, a subtler metal shade would have made it look more luxurious.

All in all this is a pricey and unique evening bag that will get plenty of looks, but may be just a little too obvious for some.

This Whiting & Davis design is truly a unique find. With its combination of texture, material, and vibrant color, the Lizzy Clutch makes for one fun, little evening bag.

The overall silhouette is fairly typical for a clutch. However, the structured and geometric v-shaped closure and bottom panel that meet in the middle combined with slightly gathered panels on the sides provides an interesting contrast.

It's the use of material that makes the Lizzy stand out, though. The sides are constructed with Whiting & Davis' signature metal mesh that gives the brand its undeniable vintage vibe. When that mesh meets up with lizard-embossed leather, however, the design takes on an appealing contemporary twist.

You can get the Lizzy Clutch in a neutral silvery gray, but the turquoise and hot pink choices definitely have more personality and really set of the contrasting textures. Plus, the pop of color is right on trend for cocktail parties and other dressy events this season. This Whiting & Davis handbag retails for $150.

Yes, at first glance this is just yet another metal mesh bag from mesh experts, Whiting & Davis. It is hard to get wildly excited about another clutch that follows the same traditional slouchy metallic shape with a formal frame clasp.

If you ignore the Whiting & David heritage, however, and see this bag as a pretty purse in its own right, then it doesn't feel quite so "samey." After all, the majority of bags on the market are still leather, so it is nice to see one that still lets you have a black bag with a metallic twist.

Especially nice, and proof of the company's metal expertise, is the matte vs. shiny striping. As well as being visually pleasing for you to look at, it adds a certain art deco vibe that goes down well with plenty of smart evening outfits. The glam metal probably makes it too over-the-top for day wear, so at a posh event or urban club night this will look great.

Whiting & Davis are always great at adding in a handle to make your delicate clutch more functional. However, the handle added into this purse is in a chunky chain, which doesn't work well with the light and feminine mesh pattern.

If you want a traditional mesh purse with a modern style, this purse will do you well, although it won't revolutionize handbag design at all!

I am always on the lookout for a brilliant little piece of handbag art, and this synthetic leather and straw clutch is one of my favorite recent finds.

A cute straw basket bag always goes down well in vintage and retro inspired circles. The effect is especially strong when you have a piece like this, which adds flare and a fashion twist with the addition of a snakeskin faux leather buckle and trim.

Although the looks are downright stunning and so individual, there are a few limitations that can't be avoided. Firstly, looks aren't everything, and although the bag costs $63 you don't get any decent materials. The leather is thin and fake, and the straw wicker won't last beyond a few seasons. If you are seeking a unique handbag that will last you for life, this Straw Studios purse probably won't cut the mustard.

If your expectations are slightly lower, however, then this funky clutch with its paisley lining will do you fine, whether for wearing in the sun next summer or for dressing up a vintage evening outfit.

Just in time to capitalize on the current taste for studs comes Be & D's reinvented 5th Anniversary Garbo collection. While the line features satchels and duffels, I think it works best on a smaller scale.

This little clutch almost overdoses on studs, with small nailhead studs and larger spiked ones working together to create an edgy look. Yet by keeping the bag small, it doesn't appear quite as overdone as it might. The subtle gray shade and simple flap design also work to tone down the look.

This clutch is of a decent size, so you shouldn't have any problems fitting your party must-haves inside. The zippered pocket is a nice secure addition, and the detachable chain strap brings another practical touch. You can wear it long across your body, double it over for shoulder carrying, or take it off old-fashioned clutching.

The $695 price tag is a little expensive for such a small purse, especially one with such a distinct look, but at least that money buys quality.

Anya Hindmarch keeps it chic and simple with the stylish Marano clutch.

The back to basics box design appears like polished metal from a distance, but it's actually made from gold leather. That should make it a little lighter to carry, and it's a good thing too because the Marano doesn't come with one of those convenient tuck-away chains.

While I'm griping about the practical limitations, it's worth commenting about the size. It's on the small side, and its structured shape means you simply can't over-stuff it. You may fit your keys and cards inside, but don't be surprised if you need to leave a few of your favorite items at home.

It might not be Anya Hindmarch's most practical creation, but it's hard not to love the Marano's simple good looks. From the smooth curved lines to the modern metal fastener, this is a bag that can impress without taking focus away from your evening attire.

Wow, what a blast from the past! This graphic wallet is enough to take us back to our childhood cartoons, whether for you or to treat the man in your life.

There isn't much fancy to this Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles nostalgic purse. After all, it is simple in black leather, which adds quality to a childish image. Leather wallets are always great for looking and feeling classy, and generally last longer than alternative synthetic fabrics. It won't last forever for $21, but for a fun and entertaining purse it will do great!

The colors on this wallet are bright. with a turtle image on one side and that iconic text on the other. Consequently it is probably a little too bright for some, but should definitely attract attention.

All in all this is a functional and childish wallet that will fulfill its purpose with a healthy dose of fun!

Alexis Hudson plays it straight with the Bohem hobo. This is a return to the roots of the style, with its characteristic slouch and easy breezy spirit.

This is every inch the classic hobo, which is just what I like about it. Contemporary hobos have turned the design on its head, so this return to form is refreshing. The minimalist approach and simple color palette here makes it perfect for pairing with a colorful printed maxi-dress.

While it's simple, the Bohem certainly isn't boring. The soft shoulder strap has a wonderful distressed look, and there's subtle braiding down the centre and across the base. The side tassel strikes just the right bohemian note, but I could do without all the metal charms. I hope these are easy to remove, because they really clutter this clean design.

The Bohem's lovely looks are backed up by its spacious design. The generous lined interior features a zippered pocket, a slip pouch for gadgets, and a convenient key chain. Anyone who's ever struggled with a broken zipper will be thrilled with the double zip opening.

While I love the warmth of this chestnut brown bag, but the Bohem is also available in basic black.
Alexis Hudson's Bohem harmoniously integrates lush, lovely textures. Fashioned from rich, sumptuous lambskin with braided trim, this slouchy hobo shows both classic and boho-chic sensibilities.

• Made of tumbled lambskin
• Twill lined interior
• A single shoulder strap with a 13 inch drop

An expensive bag and luxury brand-name are all well and good, but that doesn't always mean that you will end up with an elegant and sophisticated purse. This over-decorated and dramatic evening bag from huge fashion-house D&G is a perfect case-in-point.

This individual key words for this bag paint a luxurious picture. The detailed and delicate beaded exterior, with its sparkling diamante layer. The soft deep-black tassel key charm, and the folded scrunched black satin fabric. Together, however, that spark of brilliance is missing.

Instead of heavenly, the actual finished result is a little over-the-top and a bit too much. I think the gold keyhole clasp clashes with the lighter silver diamante, and this in particular makes this very expensive luxury evening bag seem somewhat cheaper than it really is.

Slightly questionable looks aside, the bag is elegant and pricey. It may not be to my tastes, but that dramatic style may just be your cup of tea.

Fashion magazine Lucky is full of style tips and chic clothing and accessories options. Outside of the colorful pages, however, they're collaborating with top designers for all kinds of fun shopping events.

Following a fabulous HSN shopping extravaganza that included special handbags, shoes, and clothes from Rebecca Minkoff, Kooba, and more, Lucky has joined up with one of my favorite designers for a special event on a slightly smaller scale. They've teamed with all-American Michael Kors to create a limited edition version of his Hamilton Chain Tote.

The classic Hamilton style has been revamped with a dose of metallic gold material. It's certainly not understated but definitely holiday-worthy and effortlessly chic. With a classic tote shape and two carrying options, there's not much to dislike about this handbag.

This bold handbag is available to purchase on Lucky's website, although it is currently back-ordered and not available to be shipped until after November 20. The tote will hit Michael Kors Lifestyle stores on November 15.
