I recently bought a gold clutch because I needed a nighttime bag that would liven up an all black ensemble. Usually, I’ll go for a colorful bag to punch up neutrals, but none meeting that description appealed to me, so I went metallic. I was a little hesitant that it would be too much, but actually the look was fresh, subtle and sophisticated. Not to mention, I got a ton of compliments on it. I also like the way it looks with color–just last weekend I mixed it with a turquoise dress, black tights and a trench coat. The contrast was very chic, if I do say so myself.
So, long story long, I’m a convert to the charms of a gold clutch. And if I didn’t just buy one, I might consider this Avignon Woven Clutch, which I find absolutely scrumptious. It’s going for $107 (old price= $215) at Bloomingdales, which may seem steep for a clutch, but it’s a pretty classic look that will work for years and years. It also comes in pewter.
Viva the gold clutch!
