Go Gear: Motoring-themed purses

Girls will be green with envy

Buckle up as this carefully crafted car handbag is going to blow you away.

It may not be a Maserati but it certainly has character and a classic chassis. Dh185. Check out www.returntothe50sstore.com.

California dreaming

If you believe Katy Perry, California girls are unforgettable, but we reckon it could be more to do with their handbags than anything else, certainly if they're carrying about one of these funky number plate bags. Made from genuine, recycled number plates, these handbags come in a variety of shapes from many US states. Dh920. shop.littleearth.com.

Simply bagnificent

Sometimes simplicity is the best option when it comes to fashion accessories and this bag definitely falls in that bracket. A classic car design on a black-and-white tote bag doesn't need any added frills. And the good news is that the price is simple as well. At only Dh60, it's simply impossible to say no.
