As I've said before, MICHAEL Michael Kors really has a way with faux snakeskin. This Sloan clutch is a great example of how it makes sleek, exotic looks happen at affordable prices.

The material on the Sloan is awesome. The faux python looks ...

Baby Phat fans needn't abandon their fierce sense of style once little ones arrive, thanks to this faux python diaper bag.

I can't imagine any label but Baby Phat creating this baby bag. Its gray snake print finish is pure Baby Phat. Frankly I think it ...

It's not often that I say this about a diffusion line, but I definitely like MICHAEL more than I like the Michael Kors collection accessories. Honestly, they have a very similar aesthetic, but the MICHAEL line's prices are so much more reasonable that I automatically ...

The latest MICHAEL by Michael Kors faux snakeskin designs have been absolutely spot on. No one does a more realistic faux snake for such a reasonable price in such sleek designs. Unfortunately, this clutch is not one of my favorites in the line.

The design of this ...

Michael Kors is not one of my favorite designers, but every now and again he makes something fabulous that reminds me why he's one of the most prominent American designers today. This Beverley clutch is a simple, elegant bag with a little bit of edge that ...

Stella McCartney has reworked her Falabella shoulder bag here into a hobo. Unfortunately, everything that I didn't like about the bag has been retained except the shape, and nothing particularly new has been added.

The faux python on this bag is terrible. I am all for animal-friendly fashion, but python-printed polyester just isn't ...

Lulu Guinness does cheap and cheerful with style with this faux snakeskin clutch.

Marc Jacobs isn't a trend-follower, he's a trend-maker. Devotees of the line are usually six months ahead of the rest of the fashion world. This Single shoulder bag really embodies a lot of what's going on in fashion right now: exotic materials, chain shoulder straps, and deep neutrals. It's the small details ...

It may not have the flair we've come to expect from Lambertson Truex, but the practical perks of the Christie make it worth another look.

It's not that the Christie is a purse lacking in style. The brown leather is elegant and sophisticated, the perfect foil for the gleaming silver Lambertson Truex ...

Big Buddha hits both current trends and a pleasing price point with this Eclipse handbag, giving truly budget-conscious gals something chic, yet also extremely affordable.

Not everyone can afford the kind of luxurious craftsmanship that designer labels are able to charge and arm and a leg for. Therefore, it's nice to see a handbag ...

Carlos Falchi has captured his signature style for less with this satchel, part of his capsule collection for department store Target.

Of course, to make this purse so affordable there are compromises made. There's not a hint of genuine python in the snakeskin collage body. The glossy finish probably gives that away, ...

In the tradition of Valentino's Rose handbags comes this more affordable, yet far less luxurious, Big Buddha Mia bag.

If your budget can stretch, I'd pass this one over for the Valentino alternative. While the rose is just as flirty and feminine, the stiff synthetic doesn't fall as softly as an ...

Marvin Traub's recent comment about breathing new life into Carlos Falchi is beginning to take form. Following the recent purchase of the company, involving Traub and Windsong Brand, the luxury label appears to be trying to turn things around with a new venture.
