All the available styles are on their website (just google clipa bag hanger). You will love it. It's made in the US not China. Mine outlasted TWO bags and still looks new!
Clipa will - it holds up to 40 pounds.
The Clipa web site is http://www.clipa.us
ETA here's THE thread about hooks/hangers - and it seems the Clipa is the favorite - http://forum.purseblog.com/handbags-and-purses/are-purse-hooks-weird-550168.html
It seems like a great idea but I have to agree with some of you, i would really feel silly pulling one out.:giggles:
I agree with what has been said here - love the Clipa!
I used to use the retractable round flat ones, but found they only work on tables (and only if the table isn't thick). The Clipa is so much more versatile. I use it on my shopping cart, side of bathroom stalls if there is no hook, and also at the restroom sink when needing to set it down to wash my hands.
If there's an empty chair, then I usually put my purse there. But my purse hanger comes in handy when there is no where to put the purse except my lap or the floor. I don't feel silly using the purse hanger at all. I get a lot of compliments and ladies who ask where I get it.
I was so bummed to lose my Clipa when going to a concert this past weekend. So, I went ahead & ordered another one on pursebling.com today (and thanks to fellow TPFers who wrote in another thread, I got the 10% discount by entering "TPF" in the coupon/referral page toward the end of Checkout. They are honoring this code for Purse Forum members). I found this site has one of the best Clipa prices given the discount code & free shipping on it!

Pursebling.com is great! Both my clipas (polised silver and brushed gold) and a purse-to-go have come from there, and I even referred my mom to the site where she picked up a purse-to-go.
I asked mom for a brushed gold Clipa for Christmas, so hopefully it comes!

I have a purse hook, it was just $5 at Old Navy, and it works fine for me. I own two Coach purses, and there is NO WAY I am putting them on the floor! I care about my bags.
Now if I am out to dinner and there is an extra chair, I put my bag in the chair. But if not, I whip out my purse hook & have only gotten compliments (quite a few, actually) and never felt like anyone was looking at me like I was trying to be pretentious.
I actually work part time on weekends at a 5-star steakhouse restaurant waiting tables & there are TONS of women who use purse hooks! I think they are great & it saves your bag from unnecessary dirt & God knows what else on the floor!

Now Clipa makes purse hooks decorated with Swarovski crystals, see link below (not my auction!)
