The latest prefall '19 'ugly' bags that are worth buying and collecting

They're not your everyday, work bags ⁠- we dare say that seasonal collectibles are often slanted towards the 'ugly' side.

Yes, they could barely fit your wallets, keys, phone and make up pouches at once, however, here's what we believe in: If the Man Repeller can build an empire on coveting fashion pieces that repel men, then these eclectic evening bags can, and will, make it into her dictionary. And if your man hates it, don't replace your style. Replace the man instead.

Below, shop some of our top picks for the latest, 'ugly' handbags at Prefall '19 that are worth every penny.

PLEXIGLASS AND STRASS MINAUDIERE, $28,110, CHANEL.

Inspired by the sacred Egyptian insect, the scarab beetle, this purse is definitely not your everyday go-to bag. But, it'll definitely be a stand out for the evening, especially when you'd have an important function or a red carpet event to attend. Let this baby pop against a black number.

OPHIDIA STRAW BAG, $3,400, GUCCI.

How can we resist a good straw bag? Though this might not be inspired by the popular 'Jane Birkin' basket bag, we dare say that this Gucci purse will never go out of style. You'll definitely be carrying this statement arm candy out every summer, and we'd recommend pairing it with a lace number and a pair of sneakers.

SYLVIE WICKER AND LEATHER BAG, $5,120, GUCCI.

Yet another straw bag from Gucci that got us falling head over heels. This piece is perfect for those who'd love a versatile bag, where you can carry it either at its top handle, or sling it on your shoulders. It's a perfect accouterment when you visit the Maldives, or Bali.

SUEDE AND LEATHER MINAUDIERE, $4,980, CHANEL.

Since Chanel's theme for Prefall '19 is Ancient Egypt, how can there not be a pyramid-shaped bag? With a stunning gold and black colour alternating on its upper, let this luxe piece be the highlight of your outfit by dressing it with an alabaster pant-suit.
