Re: Do You Like Clutch Bags?

I used to love evening clutch bags, particularly if they had a small chain as a strap. I just hated that they had to be carried everywhere, very cumbersome.

Re: Do You Like Clutch Bags?

@ECBG  Being a petite,I could never carry a large clutch bag.

               Those pictured are about the size of the brief case

                that I carried, when I worked in a chemical and

                analytical laboratory, back in the 80's.

 

                For dressy occasions, I always have a small clutch,

              to carry. In fact, I just bought from Etsy, a beautiful,

              handmade little coral color macrame clutch bag for

              a wedding next Saturday. I will be wearing a long

              turquoise dress with a topper in a lighter turquoise

              with coral floral print, and nude sandals.

@ECBG The clutches you posted are all gorgeous!  I love a clitch for when I go out to eat or to a show, somethng like that.  Carrying a clutch I think dresses up an outfit.  And I don't like having my usual everyday shoulder bag or a tote with me at a dinner table.

@ECBG Do you know where the clutches are from?  I really like the leopard print and the navy and beige one.  The last one is nice too for summer.

They were google imaged.  With leopard accessories having a moment, it shouldn't be hard to find one.  Try etsy if fabric is ok.

Re: Do You Like Clutch Bags?

I am a total cross body and back pack type girl.  I have always preferred these bags and will only use a small clutch for dressy nights (not that it occurs much anymore) and it has to have a wristlet strap.  I agree with others they are awkward to carry around and yes too much of a risk to lose it.

Re: Do You Like Clutch Bags?

I LOVE clutch bags, they're very glamorous! Love to see them in the '40s film noir movies. I have a Lee Sands eelskin clutch that looks brand new.
