Though it’s made of leather, one might easily mistake the Rebecca Minkoff Perfection Tote for straw. From afar, it’s both earthy in color and woven in appearance. Take a closer look, though, and feast your eyes on gorgeous rose gold leather – trendy, glamorous, and perfect for a little showoff time in the blazing sunshine. I’d swing this over my arm while wearing a sultry white maxi dress and a pair of comfy sandals. Available for $495 at Piperlime.

As summer bags go, this version of the Rebecca Minkoff MAC Clutch is one of the best. A lavish lacy pattern is laser cut into the leather with incredible precision, so it’s actually a bit crisp looking instead of just plain romantic. Still, throw it on with any pretty ruffled dress and you’ll end up with the perfect ensemble for any warm weather outing. Available for $295 at Piperlime.

Compact and shapely, the Rebecca Minkoff Mini Skylar Studded Leather Shoulder Bag revolutionizes the classic saddle bag. This is truly the downtown-chic woman’s alternative to a bag that traditionally skews a bit country. Accented by studs, this smooth black leather bag stands out thanks to a rounded shape and simple detailing. Available for $320 at LuisaViaRoma.

Rebecca Minkoff has really outdone herself in recent months, coming up with seemingly endless varieties of her beloved MAC clutch. The Jungle Green MAC Clutch is saturated with color and accented by deep black trim. This is a pretty distinguished bag for something so small and unassuming – it’s no wonder it’s such a hot commodity right now. it’s just about the perfect casual-meets-dressy style available, and the hardware lends it just enough sportiness to give it a down-to-earth element. Available for $325 at Neiman Marcus.

Look closely and you’ll see laser cut everything, everywhere. I love the effect on the new Rebecca Minkoff Blake Mini Crossbody Bag. From afar, it’s almost a bit like lace, but up close you can really see the intricacies and beautiful workmanship that went into developing this stylish purse. I’m glad there’s a small handle on top, because this seems just dainty enough to work better as a hand-held – the crossbody style is generally super casual, and this bag just feels a bit more polished than that. Available for $250 at Nordstrom.

The change of seasons is SO bad for my bank account. I’ve shopped enough in the past month to more than make up for the little hiatus I enjoyed during winter. It’s bags like this Rebecca Minkoff Honey Clutch that make it so hard for me to remain committed to any sort of no-buy situation, not that I’ve ever successfully managed to hold down one of those for any serious length of time. I’m all over this sleek, simple yet oh-so-sexy bag that works a pop of calming lavender into a sexy snake print body. Very cool mix that just looks so springy, fresh and timeless all at once. Available for $325 at Rebecca Minkoff.

Available in a whole slew of colors that run the gamut from brazen to practical, the Rebecca Minkoff M.A.B. Leather Tote is easily one of the smartest bags I’ve seen all year. And by smart, I mean that it covers all the bases and is priced just about perfectly for a bag that you will probably end up carrying all the time. Deep and spacious, it’s packed with pockets and compartments that keep everything in place, and it’s versatile enough to be with you whether you’re traveling to the beach or the office. Very cool. Available for $295 at Nordstrom.

Lace is popular for its easy elegance and quiet sophistication that never seems to go out of style. The same came be said for this Rebecca Minkoff Crossbody – MAC Perforated bag. This leather crossbody will definitely become a staple in your handbag collection and can be warn day or evening. The strap, fashioned in leather and linked chain, is comfortable across the shoulder and adds an edge to the traditional feel of the lace. Also available in Cerulean, the Rebecca Minkoff Crossbody – MAC Perforated bag is $295 at Bloomingdale’s.

Made of cotton and just a touch of leather trim, the Rebecca Minkoff Surfer Plaid Mini Mac Crossbody is sort of the anti-Minkoff. It boasts the same beloved silhouette and detailing, but beyond that it’s far less impressive than its counterparts. The plaid pattern looks a bit sloppy, actually, and the tan leather is underwhelming. The whole effect is kind of washed out and bland – not two descriptors we usually associate with the typically-fabulous Minkoff. Just proves no one is perfect. Available for $195 at Bloomingdale’s.

Perfection seems like an overstatement, but the Rebecca Minkoff Perfection Leather Tote is still an interesting bag. It has stripes within stripes, beautiful woven detailing, and a fancy beaded tassel. It may be a little overconfident, but if you’re shopping for a head-turning bag, you may have found it — especially considering it’s on sale. Originally $595, it’s now $398.65 at Norstrom.
