Bulgari has gone back to the vault to celebrate its 125th anniversary. The Italian luxury brand has revived classic collections – the Doppio Tondo, Leoni, Collezione 1910, and Twist – but given them modern makeovers.

The Doppio Tondo line retains the distinctive double overlapped round metallic rings engraved with the double "Bulgari" logo. These double rings take inspiration from the infinite loop, reminding us of the classic styling the brand represents. The wine red and forest green shades are new though, the jewel tones ideal for the cooler weather ahead.

We see the double logo again in the Twist, although this time it's printed on a duo of medallions. This season the line has a more relaxed feel thanks to the drawstring closure.

The Leoni bags are also a little more casual this time around, with their rounded corners. The original handles and clasps have also been moved to the center of the purse for a bold new look.

The Collezione 1910 hearkens back to the year the first Bulgari store opened in Rome. The collection features the brand's original Art Nouveau style advertisement printed on leather, oiled linen, or cotton canvas. Calfskin trimmings and handles add a little luxury to the less decadent fabrics, while the leather receives a special treatment for everyday use.

The retro Bulgari bags aren't cheap, with the leather purses clocking in at a few thousand a piece, but the classic styles might be worth a splurge.

I've seen so many woven handbags from Bottega Veneta that they're almost starting to get boring. So I was excited to see this very different looking purse from the Italian fashion house.

It's not just a new look for Bottega Veneta. The Cushion Bag looks like no bag I've ever seen more, and when you see as many handbags as I do that's really saying something. There are many different Cushion Bag styles in Bottega Veneta's catalog, but the one that's really won my heart is the Mosaico Cervo. The name comes from the embroidered leather finish which looks like tiny mosaic tiles. The tiles sit close together on the sides of the bag, before becoming scattered haphazardly along the top. The texture makes it hard to look away, so don't be surprised if you turn a few heads carrying this baby.

The bag opens with two zips positioned between the rolled shoulder straps. I wish the zipper didn't extend quite so far, as it interrupts the purse's sexy curves, but it does mean you can open the cushion bag wide. A leather trimmed zipper pocket and an open pouch help keep your girly goods in order.

Bottega Veneta purses never come cheap, and this stunning cushion bag is no exception. At $4,380, this is one expensive piece of arm candy, but that shouldn't come as any surprise to those who worship at the Bottega Veneta alter.

Finding a cross-body purse that can fit more than a wallet and keys can be challenging, but Botkier has stepped up to fill the fashion void with the Taylor.

This bohemian styled satchel is crafted from buttery soft Italian lambskin for that hobo-style slouch. Tiny pinched pleats create stripes from the top to the base. Thin, sparse tassels hang down to create a hippie vibe which is a little more sophisticated than heavy fringing can be.

The exterior doesn't feature any obvious branding, instead preferring to let the gold logo plate and signature lining inside do the talking. The zippered pocket and single cell phone slip probably aren't quite enough to keep a space of this size properly organized, but I'm willing to forgive that little misstep.

You've got the option of carrying the Taylor using the two shoulder straps, or the much longer cross-body one. Whichever way you wear it, the Taylor oozes hippie cool without looking like a Woodstock relic.

• Zip top closure
• Dual handles with a 7.5 inch drop
• A single shoulder strap with a 16.5 inch drop
• Measures 17.5 x 5.5 x 11 inches
• Comes with a dust bag

As far as black leather satchels go, this one is nearly as simple as they come. I wouldn't exactly call it as dull as dishwater, as they say, but there's really not much about it that jumps out as extremely interesting.

Being a Hobo International design, you know that the Suzzette Satchel is going to be well-made and crafted from genuine leather, which is a definite appeal. However, it's not going to win any awards for originality or attract any shoppers who are looking for a statement piece.

The rounded shape is nice and somewhat contemporary. I'd even go as far as to call the Suzzette sleek and streamlined because of its lack of extra details besides handle rings.

The significant depth of the handbag is great for storage, but some might consider it a drawback since it could make the purse seem bulky against the body. The interior is quite practical, though, with two separate zippered compartments and a couple of smaller pockets.

If you're looking for a very simple style in a classic, versatile handbag color, the Suzzette will serve you well. Those looking for something original might want to stick with some of Hobo International's other designs like the Solano Tote.

Even the simplest of handbag styles from Betsey Johnson is bound to have a quirky design feature somewhere on its exterior. I'd actually be shocked to see one without some sort of unexpected twist.

Enter the heart padlock detail on the front of the Locked In hobo. This otherwise relatively normal-looking purse is taken to a new level with an oversized and whimsical heart-shaped pendant hanging from the top flap closure. I'm not entirely certain if it is supposed to signify things being locked inside the handbag or keeping others from accessing what you've got, but either way the funky feature adds personality to the bag.

The Locked In collection is also available in a clutch, wallet, or satchel, but the large hobo definitely has its appeal. Although not really what I'd consider a typical hobo shape, the hint of slouchiness gives this purse a desirable casual air. With studded flap pockets on either side and a slip pocket on the front, there's more than enough extra storage space to go around, too.

The interior of this Betsey Johnson handbag is lined in the brand's lace-printed lining. On the outside, the heart-shaped padlock detail displays the logo in a rather simplistic way. Overall, I'm rather impressed with the Locked In large hobo and am liking it best in this pretty shade of gray.

More Features of the Locked In Hobo

• Measures 14.5 x 12.5 x 5 inches
• Single strap with 8.5 inch drop
• Front flap with magnetic closure
• Studded detail on the sides
• Zippered detail on the handle

Italian design house Ronchi Bags is preparing to infiltrate the American market with the launch of its new Fiit Collection.

Head designer Carlo Ronchi has grown his brand over three generations. I'm sure American audiences will be just as enthusiastic about his commitment to high-quality Italian leather and craftsmanship. Each purse is made from start to finish in the European fashion capital, and they come with certification to prove it.

The Fiit Collection is further testimony to that heritage, as the name translates to Made in Italy. The bags are crafted in buttery-soft goatskin, crumpled skin, and printed croc leather. Antique gold or gun metal gray hardware complete the luxurious looks. Handcrafted hooks and key-ring attachments add extra practicality to the cotton-lined interiors.

We expect to pay a small fortune for European designs, but that's not the case here. You can snag this Sofia bag for the bargain price of $435. Ronchi Bags are available now through online fashion store Noblivity.

I love the sassy spirit of this Tano French Nanny bag. It's got that European refinement, but there's a cheekiness which sets it apart.

Tano's clever signature style is seen again in the French Nanny. This isn’t a brand which embraces bells or bling. The front and back have a clean design, which allows the sexy Italian crunch leather to take center stage. The leather comes in a diverse color spectrum, which includes garnet, timber green, and this lovely cobalt blue. While there are many shades to choose from, none are too outlandish. They're the kind of jewel tones which are right on trend this season.

But the sides are where the real action happens, with leather belt details smattered with silver studs. They bring enough attitude to appease rocker chicks, without overwhelming those of us with more conservative tastes.

The long shoulder strap is another inspired touch. Unlike so many bags, this one won't just suit you for summer. You can comfortably sling it over a thick knitted sweater or puffy winter coat.

The French Nanny is a big old bag, capable of carrying the girly goodies that you need, and a few things you don't! But you might have trouble finding them. A zippered pocket and lone open pouch isn't really enough to keep a space this size in order.

It's not flawless, but for just $199 I think I could learn to live with the French Nanny's shortcomings.

If a hobo handbag and a messenger had a torrid affair, the Stash Bag from Lucky Brand could easily result.

It's got the soft slouch of a hobo, the foldover flap of a messenger, and the relaxed attitude of both! The casual slouch profile comes from the buttery Italian leather, which falls softly in a bohemian style. However the overall appearance is more rock and roll than hippie chic thanks to the antique brass hardware and sexy stitching.

The generous main compartment has enough space to hold the essentials plus a few little luxuries like a bottle of water and your favourite fashion mag. Two extra pockets up front are perfect for storing your cell phone, car keys, or anything else you need on hand. But the added bonus is the zipper you see on the front flap. Open it up to reveal the secret stash compartment that gives the bag its name. This hidden section keeps your cash and cards out of sight and reach.

The Stash Bag is the perfect companion for jeans, but in classic colors like black or vintage brown you could easily dress it up for after work drinks or that hot dinner date.

• Tan cotton lining
• Magnetic closure

I love the look of this Inge Christopher clutch. Visually, the creamy soft leather falls just right, and the delicate folded origami style is a mix of edgy and gently feminine.

Even better, the design is stronger than it looks, and won't need constant rearranging into the perfect shape, thanks to the deceptively elegant shrunken leather.

Looks-wise the bag is flawless. From the sumptuous satin lining to the unique designer exterior, I don't know what flaws to mention. Of course the ivory will stain and discolor easier than the other shades, but if you are spending $250 on a purse you should be willing to look after it!

Even better, the functionality ticks a whole load of boxes. The slouchy shape folds over, but has a zip fastening too to prevent your belongings escaping if dropped. The optional handle is chain, but at just the right length; not too long and not too short. The interior pocket is handy, and the size is spacious.

All in all, I love this bag. I don't like it as much in gray or brown, but in the ivory it is elegant and dramatic and really designer.
