Typically a striped ivory/black pattern could scare me away, but for some odd relentless reason, I am completely and totally drawn to this clutch. Valentino has released the Valentino Striped Bow Clutch which shows off an oversized bow that doubles over as a wristlet along with the black/ivory satin that I am now fond of. A zip closure with satin pull tabs finish off the outside, alongside black satin lining on the inside. There are no pockets, just one compartment. The measurements are 5″H x 10″W x 1/2″D. In a larger bag, I would most likely give it a nay, but in this smaller clutch, it provides the perfect va-voom. Pre-order via Bergdorf Goodman for $850.

Granted this evening bag is quite pricey for the size, but it is also a work of art and a total masterpiece. A Judith Leiber piece nearly guarantees that you have bought an intricately designed bag that will have nearly every gawking. The Judith Leiber Limited Edition Venus Miniaudiere touts a picturesque sea-shell frame with an array of champagne, pink, and clear Austrian crystal detailing which are all meticulously placed in a stunning wave like pattern. Gold-tone hardware and a lock closure finish the simple clutch which dabbles into pure extravagance because of the crystal detailing. The price is not cheap, pre-order via Bergdorf Goodman for $3995, but the craftsmanship and detailing makes the price justifiable.

For a brief moment in time this bag popped up on eLuxury and after I cleaned the drool up from underneath my mouth, the bag was gone. Seriously are there that many people trying to make me frustrated and trying to buy bags that I want? Yep, I think so. But I will make a trip to my local LV and get this baby, because I in love. The Louis Vuitton Aumoniere Satin Multicolore is designed with silky satin multicolore pattern on the outside and is trimmed in Ayer (water snake). The inside is lined with taffeta and lamb leather. The hardware is golden brass and there are two Louis Vuitton engraved stud closures. There is an optional golden brass chain to use this bag as a shoulder bag, but I would wear this baby as a clutch all the way. I couldn’t be more in love with this clutch. I am having a mind block (possibly by choice) on the price. Keep checking eLuxury or your local LV Store for this beauty.
Every lady needs a black dress and a classy clutch to carry with it. There is something about pairing your little black dress, heels, and a killer clutch for a special night; it just makes a woman feel so sexy. A perfect elegant and classy clutch for the nights you feel super sexy could be the Roberto Cavalli Satin Print Roll Clutch. This black-and-gold satin print roll clutch is encircled by a gold serpent. An optional thin gold shoulder strap accompanies the clutch. I know the price tag is far from lovely, but a girl can dream; and sometimes a girl can splurge if she is bringing sexy back. Buy it through Net-A-Porter for $1065.
The style tip of the day is: wear animal prints this season but never mix match animal prints. If you wear an animal print dress, pair it with simple heels. If you opt for an animal print bag, then steer clear of other prints on your clothing. It sounds like I am stating the obvious, but some folks need some fashion guidance (no need to listen to me though really). Roberto Cavalli has combined jewelry with handbags to make the ultimate chic evening bag. Seriously, this bag could not get any hotter if it tried to. The Roberto Cavalli Animal Print Bracelet Bag is a gold and brown leopard print clutch bag with a gold serpent bracelet as handle. We do live in a fast paced world, but I am pretty certain I have not seen a clutch like this yet. The handle is a bracelet which takes care of 2 accessories at once. Seriously who would not like to kill two birds with one stone? This Cavalli number has gold leather piping trim and a spring clasp fastening to close the bracelet. I am seriously and totally digging this bag. Be super nice and donate this bag to me: via Net-A-Porter for $840.
Greek mythology was never my thing. There were a few stories I always remembered, but other than that I could never tell all the different God’s and Goddesses apart. However, a slight few stuck in my mind and memory. Pegasus is one of them. Pegasus is known as the “Thundering Horse of Jove” and was a winged horse that was fathered by Poseidon with Medusa. Lesson in Greek mythology ends here! The Blush B-Lush Evening Pegasus Handbag sports Pegasus detail on the front flap on top of the topaz leather body. There is a woven handle and an interior zip compartment. Overall, the bag measures 10″L x 5″H and is on sale at ShopBop for $171.50.
I am well aware of the fact that my evening bag collection is lacking big time. Come to think of it, I am here in NYC with only small clutches and wristlets, or big big everyday bags, but no evening bag or bag for going out on the town. That *has* to change. Tonight I may be using my Wapity, but there are some chic clutches that could make do also. The Lulu Guinness Pearls of Wisdom Frame Purse is a black satin clutch handbag with detailed embroidery and beading detail. The pro is the beading is a bit cheaper because it is merely beads and not pearls, the con is you are not getting pearls. The embroidery reads ‘Pearls of Wisdom’ is available through Lulu Guinness for approximately $175.28.
