Alexander Wang is one of those designers who rarely gets it wrong. His 1980s inspired accessories somehow combine the current taste for retro goodies with classic fashion sensibilities. Perhaps it's the absence of fluorescent hues and outlandish designs which help Alexander Wang's bags stand the test of time.

The Tina Zip Clutch is in keeping with Alexander Wang’s signature style. While it's called a clutch, its large size makes it a little ungainly for hand-held carrying. Thankfully the purse can easily convert to a cross-body bag by attaching the luxuriously long strap. The Tina makes the most of its supersized appearance with plenty of pockets for maximum storage potential.

Security is the name of the game, with all exterior pockets closing with shiny silver zips. The hardware adds a little attitude, although this cream-colored purse never appears too rock and roll. If you'd prefer a little more edge, consider the black or denim blue Tinas.

While it doesn't have the bad girl appeal of the others, I think this more virginal Tina is the best showcase for the pebbly textured finish. It just begs to be touched! Of course, you'll have to keep this pale-colored purse away from red wine and dirty motorcycles. That creamy shade is guaranteed to show stains if it's not handled with care.

Like so many Alexander Wang bags, the Tina is relatively affordable at $590.

Roxy is known for casual, carefree styles. That's exactly what you get with this Staying Alive Cross-Body tote bag.

Although not denim, it definitely has the appearance of a wonderfully broken-in, relaxed pair of jeans. In fact, it's not even leather but rather synthetic material that gives the impression of washed leather. Roxy gave us a double trompe l'oeil with this one.

Whatever impression the exterior has for you, the style is set in stone. The Staying Alive Cross-Body is nothing but casual cool with its multiple front pockets and cotton canvas adjustable strap. I wouldn't recommend carrying it to a business meeting unless flip-flops and sneakers are common accessories in the office, but it's perfect for pairing with jeans and a tee.

The nearly square shape of the bag makes it easy to store things of various sizes, and the outside pockets work well for holding small necessities. The top closes with a zipper and flaps over the front. The Roxy Staying Alive tote isn't enormous but rather decently mid-sized. However, for $38, you can't really go wrong with this one for an occasional laid-back bag.

• Measures 12.5 x 11 x 2 inches
• Crossbody strap with 23.5 inch drop
• Washed synthetic material

No one expects genuine exotics for under $100. But if you hope to enjoy the look at a budget friendly price, this python-like hobo from Chinese Laundry is a decent option.

The traditional slouchy hobo shape is jazzed up by the snakeskin print, which is embossed on the polyurethane body. This blue shade is a lovely evergreen option, ideal for pairing with denims at any time of the year. It's interesting that there are none of the blacks, whites, and browns we've come to expect, but gray and mustard should be tame enough to please conservative tastes.

This generously-sized purse is fitted out with a zippered pocket and a couple of multifunctional slips. One can take care of your cell phone, while another is large enough to suit an MP3 player or small digital camera.

The handle is quite long, so I'm not sure why we'd need the removable shoulder strap. It's especially confusing since the fabric finish clashes with the snakeskin body. I'd simply unclip it for a more unified look.

More Features of This Chinese Laundry Snake Embossed Hobo

• Zip top closure
• Fabric lined interior
• A single shoulder strap with an 11 inch drop
• Measures 20 x 12 x 6 inches

Lanvin's line is the stuff that dreams are made of. Its designs are always impeccably styled timeless classics that women love enough to hand down to their daughters.

Looking at this bag, it's no wonder why. It combines a gorgeous, exotic-looking skin with a classy, feminine design. The quilted material is given even more depth with the python embossed texture and gold metallic sheen.

The chain strap is totally trendy, but it comes off as classic on this traditionally-shaped bag. The black matte grosgrain ribbon accent sets off the luxurious shimmer of the material and the subtle shine of the strap.

The black, pewter, and brushed gold turnlock fastening is the perfect way to bring all of the elements of the bag together, and is gorgeous in its own right.

The Happy Sac is a fabulous investment bag for a very bright future.

Alexander Wang has proven himself to be the designer to watch with celebrity favorites like the Brenda and Coco. Now with the Betty, he's showing a more sophisticated side.

Black leather is still Alexander's fabric of choice, but it's got a more elegant feel here. The styling is a lot simpler than we're used to, but the lush texture of buffalo hide saves it from being boring. Alexander Wang loves rock and roll zip and studs, but he's used a little more restraint in this design. An abundance of antique brass gleams on the shoulder strap, but the body is kept clean and simple. It's a more minimalist look than we're used to, but it only adds to the Betty's elegant good looks.

Inside, the Betty is divided into two handy compartments to make organization easy. They're a little slender to be truly practical, but you should find enough room for most things you want to carry.

Alexander Wang bags are always gorgeous, but this is the first I've seen which could easily transition from day to night. It's the kind of basic black purse which would look equally at home with dark denims and a sweater, or a sexy dinner dress.

Everyone needs a good weekend bag. Even if you don't travel on a regular basis, it's still important to have at least one mid-sized duffle with space to fit everything you need for a few days away from home.

One of the great things about this Tommy Hilfiger Explorer duffle bag is that it could work for either a man or a woman. Though I'm sure there are some women who would scoff at carrying a blue and white striped tote, there is really nothing decidedly masculine about this bag.

It is probably best described simply as a nautical-inspired duffle bag. It's nothing quite as overt in style as something like the Dooney & Bourke DB Sport Duck Tote, which has water-loving animals actually printed right on the bag. The Explorer, with its ticking stripe and dark brown trim, merely hints at that classic vacation-in-the-Hamptons look that Tommy Hilfiger often imbues into their creations so well.

That aforementioned dark brown trim is made from shrunken oil leather and outlines the top and bottom of the bag as well as connecting up the sides to the handles. Those two little straps are hardly convenient when carrying this size of duffle, though. The longer detachable strap makes toting the Explorer a less trying task and will suit you much better for quick runs through the airport.

More Features of the Explorer Duffle

• Measures 21.5 x 11 x 8 inches
• Handles with 6 inch drop
• Detachable shoulder strap
• Denim material
• Twill lining

Okay, I won't lie. I've never really been a woman on the Judith Leiber bandwagon. I went to one of her stores in Las Vegas and was literally dumbfounded by the prices and the bizarre array of multicolored crystals. But, since there's an exhibit of her designs not ten blocks from my home, I thought I'd give her line another look. 

Truthfully, I still don't really get what the fuss is about. Of course, my personal aesthetic is basically all black, denim and leather, so who's surprised? But this parrot really caught my eye. The striking red color and multicolored accents, I have to admit, are masterfully rendered. Even the markings around the parrots eyes are realistic, or at least as realistic as Swarovski can get.

The hard-shelled little purse isn't the height of practicality, but you can pretty much see that by looking at it. This is for a big night on a big town and almost nothing in between. The 7" handle drop ensures that this pretty birdie stays close at hand, which it really should with a $5,695 price tag. 

The gold leather lined interior is almost as opulent as the exterior, and well-arranged with a simple patch pocket. This is luxury at its most whimsical, coming soon to an opera house near you.

Lauren Merkin shows us that style and practicality can come at an affordable price with the Stella tote.

The traditional boxy tote shape is jazzed up with two long zips running down the front. They give the Stella two distinct looks: sophisticated and refined while zipped up, and casual rocker chic when unzipped. But it's not merely an aesthetic choice. Unzipping the tote also helps it expand, so you can use it as an overnight bag or carry-on luggage.

The leather finish has a subtle sparkle, and an unexpected practicality. It’s waterproof, so you don't need to stress if you get stuck in a downpour. Anyone with water-damaged purses in their closet will appreciate this convenient feature!

The shimmery finish is mirrored inside with a shimmery striped lining. Such a large space takes a lot to organize, but zip and patch pockets on the side walls are there to help out. A hidden top zip ensures that no matter what you carry inside, it’ll stay safe.

The Stella is available in a whopping ten different colors, so choosing your favorite is bound to be a challenge. Personally I'd opt for this blue variety. It's a natural match for denim, and looks stunning with black in winter and beige and white tones in the warmer months.

More Features of This Lauren Merkin Waterproof Tote

• Dual handles with an 8 inch drop
• Measures 15 x 16 x 2 inches with zips closed, and 19 x 16 x 2 inches with zips open

Trust Hobo International to deliver another cute, classic accessory. The brand never really pushes the boundaries, but you can count on it to create the kind of handbags you'll want to carry season after season. The Maralyn is no exception, with its structured shape and compact design channeling vintage Hollywood style.

At first glance it appears like any flap bag, although the oval cut-out ups the glam. But look closer. Those cut-outs are actually handles, which can be folded up to give the Maralyn a completely different look. Of course most girls need a hands-free option, and Hobo International delivers there too. Just fold the flaps down again, attach the longer shoulder strap, and you're ready to raid the canapés.

While the design is compact, it's no lightweight either. It's certainly not oversized, but it should have no trouble handling everything you need to make the day-to-night transition. But you may want to add that shoulder strap if you're loading it up, as those metal-trimmed handles don't look too comfortable.

The Maralyn's classic style means you could pair it with denim or a flirty sundress during the day, before glamming up and stepping out at night. The lack of jewels and gemstones mean it won't sparkle at the ball, but it's entirely appropriate for a night out with the girls, or that special somebody!

7 For All Mankind is known for its designer denim, and even for helping put "premium denim" on the map back when everyone bought their jeans at The Gap and Express. They've been doing accessories for a few seasons now, and it seems like they're definitely going the way they went with denim, gaining popularity with interesting details.

This Havana Hobo is full of exciting accents. My favorite is the pleated leather. It gives a sort of diagonal stripe affect to the bag. It's pretty different to see this pleating technique used with patent or high-gloss hide.

Small buttons or same-color rivets accent the sides of the bag, concentrating where the pleats are tightest. They also adorn the strap of the bag, which could be a bit much for some people.

There is an outer pocket with a diagonal zip, and an interior zip pocket as well. This seems like it would make a practical everyday bag in this navy color or black. For more of a pop of color, you could check out the pink version.
