Perhaps it's time that we were no longer surprised by Roxy's accessory efforts. In recent years the brand has convincingly made the leap from surf label to fashion force, so it's time we silenced those internal critics once and for all. It's still not really mastered cutting edge designs, but its purses are generally good looking and functional, not to mention appropriate once summer ends.

Given its budget $42 price tag, we wouldn't expect leather here. But we also wouldn't expect a synthetic of such quality. Its weathered finish is really striking, particularly in this olive shade. It's much paler than many olive greens and a little grayer too. In fact, it's almost a metallic shade, although it's toned down just enough for everyday use.

The Lightning's shape doesn't excite me, but it's very smart considering this sling bag's everyday application. It's deep enough to carry everything you could want it to, and its flat base will help it sit up once it's set down. The single strap can be slung casually and comfortably over your shoulder or across your body for a more relaxed look.

I'm not completely wowed by the Lightning, but it's hard not to be impressed by it, especially considering its very reasonable bottom line.

This satchel definitely pushes the boundaries; do you love it or hate it?

The basic premise of this crocodile print purse is actually quite delicate. The blue lines against the glossy black PVC are a stylish elegant combination, and if the purse had been left as that then it would have looked just fine. It is the blue lightening strike tag that pushes it slightly too far, but you should be able to remove that!

Whatever you think about this purse, the pockets are undeniably great. Aside from adding eighties vibes and a bit of a bowler attitude, they provide you with plenty of outside storage space in addition to the lofty interior.

All in all this is a spacious satchel with potential to look great, especially with dark black outfits where it is the focal point. Be careful not to over-clutter it, and you will have a girly Betsey Johnson purse to be proud of.
