This bright Spring green satin hobo is on sale for a mere $71 (down from $238). That’s a recession-ready gift of a discount of over 70% off! The purse is being offered by Yoox.com, one of the biggest online retailers for European designers. They are a great source for luxury sales, especially on items that usually don’t see much of a discount in the actual boutiques. Their lack of overhead is your gain. This sweet handbag is embellished with an organic motif charm for the upcoming garden-friendly season.

Talk about understated. It’s one of the most low-key Roberto Cavalli handbags you’ll probably ever see. The Dolly Medium Dome Shopper is a purse for all seasons, made of textured fabric and trimmed with a very subdued beige leather. It’s not exactly glamorous, but it has a casually chic vibe that makes it great for a long day in the city, at the office or hanging out with friends. It’s one of those purses you can grab for any occasion, yet it lacks excitement. For that reason, it’s not really worth the $1050 price tag. Available at Nordstrom.

This purse is so Roberto Cavalli, it’s making my head spin. The handbag is actually a tiny clutch, covered in leopard print (love that!), adorned by a fantastic snake bracelet, in which you can carry it by. I know! I screamed too! The bag calls for a yacht, a fab gold dress and a flute of Cristal, if you ask me. Should you own any of the above, grab the bag for $865 at nordstrom.com.

Nothing says spring like woven leather. While it can be hard to let go of a dark purse, choosing one in woven leather really lightens up the attitude of the bag without giving up your staple color. The Roberto Cavalli Woven Leather Clutch is a small bag with a lot to say between the dark chocolate woven leather and antiqued brass serpent closure. The bag is perfect to add to a collection as your go-to day clutch, and because of the color and hip adornment, it goes into evening dinners as well. I really like the handbag when paired with beige, yellow and the color of the season, orange. The Roberto Cavalli Woven Leather Clutch is available at net-a-porter.com and retails for $1,225.

Roberto Cavalli usually never fails to impress with his extravagant designs, but this Swarovski Embellished Clutch is a mess. There’s really not much Swarovski here to actually speak of - this little number is more about the wooden beads than anything else. In shades of brown and beige, they’re an awful partner for the Swarovski crystals and the coiled serpent that Cavalli tends to favor. The glamour of those elements is wiped out by the down-to-earth nature of the beads, and it makes for an unusual and generally unattractive purse. Available for $2340 at Net-a-Porter.

Lovin’ this handbag because it makes me feel like I belong on some island having a chic dinner of shellfish and some ultra expensive white wine. Roberto Cavalli has a way of doing that to us, doesn’t he? The Firenze Grande bag is too perfect for those of you who jet set to exotic places during the warmer months. The buttery soft leather is a gorgeous nude making the purse versatile. It would be insane with a bright scarf tied to it! The Firenze Grande bag retails for $1,265 at eluxury.com.

The Acapulco Extra Large Hobo by Roberto Cavalli is a great bag for spring. I love the medium brown color which is perfect for spring’s safari trend. My favorite part of this handbag is the super fun leopard lining. Just opening the purse is enough to make anyone smile every time they reach inside. Its generous proportions are balanced by the drawstring closure which downsizes the bag when not filled adding versatility to one of the many pluses of this fantastic and casual chic bag. The Acapulco retails for $1,465 and is available at eluxury.com.

Leave it to Cavalli. You can count on the master of all things glamorous to make zebra prints look just as fetching as their more striking cheetah and leopard counterparts. The Roberto Cavalli Zebra Messenger Bag is a flat purse that takes on the challenge of transforming a basic, everyday purse into something much more dynamic - and it does so perfectly. The downside, of course, is that this is one messenger bag that really can’t be taken everywhere - the gleaming belt detail and hefty size make it slightly impractical. On the other hand, it’s one of the few purses that will always work well with both black and brown. Available for $2590 at Net-a-Porter.
