Malan Breton’s Limited Edition Black Diamonds Clutch

Malan Breton's Limited Edition Black Diamonds Clutch
He may have been kicked-off Project Runway but Malan Breton’s fashion instinct didn’t take any hits with this fabulous evening bag. Covered in Australian black crystals with a simple snap closure this limited edition bag would add bling to any night out. No need for a flashy dress or boulder-sized earrings, the clutch alone would make you feel pretty. For $950 it would stand as a timeless classic and being a limited edition, you’ll be relieved to not see its clone at a similar function.

Roberto Cavalli Sahara Print Clutch

Roberto Cavalli Sahara Print Clutch
Obviously the animal print trend is alive and well in the handbag world. I, for one, hope it stays that way. Designers keep finding new and interesting ways to employ these exotic patterns and I never tire of them. This one takes the jungle print uptown with gold accents and the result is stunning. The metallic gold leather trim highlights the pretty curves of the flap and the detachable chain strap adds even more elegance to the shimmery satin bag. I am, however, just about over the charm trend. This one sports five, hanging from a gold ring on the side of bag. Measuring 11″W x 6″H x 2½D, the bag sells for $1390.

Kenneth Jay Lane Ladybug Clutch

Kenneth Jay Lane Ladybug Clutch
Bugs on a bag might not sound all that attractive, but when it’s a ladybug, it is nothing short of cute. Cinching up a strip of soft Italian leather, the gold-plated, crystal-encrusted ladybug adds a bit of whimsy and color to an otherwise plain clutch. Under the flap is a magnetic snap closure and inside, the bag is lined in satin and has a removable mirror. Measuring 10½”W x 5″H x 2″D, this clutch is just as cute in the metallic gold version. $250.

Rodo Round Chain Clutch

Rodo Round Chain Clutch
The words modern and sleek best describe this funky little clutch. The long cylindrical shape is wrapped and overlapped with gleaming bands of textured silver-tone strips. Think of them as bangles for your bag. They all meet at the top and tuck under a slim plate of logo-embossed silver adorned with a large button clasp. The contrast between the gleaming silver and the rich satin bag is striking and the overall look is futuristic glamor. £179.00.

Paris Hilton Poses with Her Chanel Flower Flap as Clutch

You’ve got to love that Paris Hilton loves the paparazzi’s attention. “Why on Earth must we love that, Elle?” – you ask? Why, because this gives her designer freebies, like Chanel bags. Alright, alright, it’s plenty of reason for us bag desirers to hate Paris.

BUT here is Ms. Hilton perfectly posing to show us a great, clear shot of an amazingly gorgeous Chanel bag. And you know what – I believe that’s reason to love the egotist in the socialite.

Paris Hilton Poses with Her Chanel Flower Flap as Clutch

So thanks Paris! Ahh to be born into wealth and fame … sigh.

As you can see from the mini photo inside the large, the bag’s not really a clutch, but a flap with the strap removed. That is a great idea! Imagine, a jumbo sized Chanel flap could be … a day clutch! Faaabulous! *Dreams off into Elle’s happy place*
