High-end department store Neiman Marcus has teamed up with comeback kid Carlos Falchi to create a limited edition tote bag collection for Christmas.

Each tote is crafted from microfiber, embossed with python-print for a little extra festive glitz. The shoulder straps have a long 10-inch drop, perfect for comfortable carrying while you're taking care of the Christmas shopping. The totes measure a sizable 17 x 17 x 5 inches, so there's enough space inside for a few pre-Christmas purchases.

Each tote comes with a matching zippered pouch for securely stashing cosmetics or other small valuables. That sounds perfect for those emergency touch-ups at the office Christmas party!

The $220 price tag may seem a little expensive for a microfiber tote, but it's not so unreasonable when you consider each bag was personally autographed by Carlos Falchi himself. Get one for a fashionable friend, or yourself, in black, red, or silver.

Kate Spade's version of the quilted handbag might not be anything quite as sophisticated as Chanel's signature look, but the classic designer has a fun, casual twist on the style.

This Lilia tote from the Lenox Hill Noel collection is also practical in sturdy microfiber. The only touch of leather on this bag is the trim, including the patent handles and signature logo plate.

Although the Lilia is just a basic square tote shape, there are some additional features that make it a decent bag choice as well as an authentic Kate Spade. For one, the hardware is all 14-karat gold plated for some elegance. The leather logo plate is also embossed with the label's well-known logo.

The buckled details on the leather handles don't mean much to me unless they're functional, though it's a decent feature to notice. However, I really like the grommet rings that connect the handles to the bag. It seems completely appropriate with the laid-back look of the quilted fabric.

This Lenox Hill Lilia is lined in a deep purple material that's a nice pop of color when you open it. You'll find a couple of pockets in there for storage, and everything stays closed in with a zippered top. Altogether, it's not a bad deal at $220 for a designer tote.

More Features of the Lilia Tote

• Available in other materials
• Measures 15 x 13 x 3.5 inches
• Zip top closure
• Strap drop of 7 inches

Shrinking violets need not apply. This glam Carlos Falchi shopping tote demands to be noticed.

The metallic snake-print exterior is something you'll either love or loathe. Personally it's a little too brassy for my tastes, but it'd be a great statement piece if you've got the confidence! Just make sure to pair it with neutrals so the bag can really shine.

The look might not have won me over, but I can't help admiring this shopping tote's functionality. It's made of lightweight microfiber, making it perfect for a marathon session at the mall. But beware of loading up this tote too much. Those thin dual straps don't look too kind on shoulders.

The interior is made for organization with all kinds of clever features. There are two pouches, one for a cell phone and the other for your iPod, plus a handy pen holder. The tote also comes complete with a coordinated cosmetics purse. The large purple "Falchi" script on this make-up case looks a little tacky, but it is nice to have somewhere to stash your compact and lipstick.

The Carlos Falchi Shopping Tote isn't to everyone's tastes, but at $220 retail it's one of the designer's most affordable purses. That makes it a steal for those who can embrace its design quirks.

• A magnetic snap closure
• Floral print fabric lining
• A flat base for upright storage
• Dual shoulder straps with an 11 inch drop
• Measures 15 x 18 x 5.5 inches

Designer Traci Kennedy couldn't find a cute bag to take to the tennis court, so she created her own! Traci Bags are the world's first luxury hair-on-hide leather tennis bag brand.

"I was so tired of the typical, athletic, nylon tennis bags on the market with simple lines and little personality," Traci explained. "I wanted something glamorous and couldn't find anything in stores. I decided to design it myself and have been turning heads on the court ever since!"

You could never accuse the Traci tennis bags of lacking personality. They're patterned with some of the season's hottest animal prints including jaguar, panther, giraffe, tiger, cheetah, and pony.

Beneath those funky good looks is a bag that's made for business. One side is lined with soft, microfiber suede for carrying multiple rackets. The other side has a waterproof nylon lining for carrying your clothing and gear. Seven side pockets are perfect for stashing tennis balls, water bottles, your cell phone, and keys.

If you're not a tennis fan you might prefer one of Traci's other luxury purses. Choose from laptop bags, satchels, messengers, and clutches. They're all available through the Traci Bags website and boutique retailers across America.

Hobo International has been turning heads since 1991 with its high-quality fashion-forward accessories.

The company's founder Toni Ray started Hobo International with a commitment to create handbags and wallets which married functionality with style. The brand has remained true to this philosophy to this day.

The designer's signature is its clever organizational features. Multiple compartments, credit card slots, ID windows, and security pockets are all commonly found in Hobo International wallets.

Hobo International describes itself as a company "by women, for women," so it's unsurprising that it creates accessories to suit all personalities. The framed purses are red carpet ready, while the continental wallets are classically casual. The choice of colors is equally diverse, from bold eggplants and rich mustards to timeless beige, brown, and black.

Hobo International's commitment to quality is seen in the materials used to make their wallets. Natural leather purses are the most common, including timeless soft calfskin, semi-distressed, embossed, and slick patent leathers. However other durable fabrics including suede, lightweight microfiber, and Italian twill are also favorites in the Hobo International range.

Hobo International wallets are affordable, with most retailing for under $100. This makes them a stylish alternative to more expensive high-end designer purses.
