Fash-E’s Top 3 Party Clutches

It’s 15 days to Christmas and yes, it’s party party party! I personally do not own clutches or party bags – which is why I’ve been doing some research on pretty clutches to invest. Let’s see, my criteria is simple. It has to be classic yet modern. It has to be beautiful yet practical. It has to be able to fit all party occasions (or some). I’m sure I’ll need more than one but I’ve to start somewhere. Here’s what I’m looking at:

Bottega Veneta Nero Galuchat Knot

Bottega-Veneta-Nero-Mineral-Galuchat-Knot

From the Bottega Veneta Spring/Summer 2010 collection. I immediately fell in love with this beauty. It would be perfect pair with my evening dresses. As seen on Leighton Meester, this one is definitely an investment piece. I’m a fan of bling bling.

Mulberry Oversized Ava Clutch

The Mulberry oversized Ava clutch is simple yet chic. This could be a great alternative to your regular office handbag – plus, you can carry it through to your girl’s night out. Nice! I wanna get it! Let’s see, maybe the Alexa comes first.

Yes, more bling! I don’t think anyone can go wrong with black and bling. This swarovski-studded clutch by Marc Jacobs is ideal for the casual night out.

I Heart Bottega Veneta Limited Edition Knot India

I’ve always wanted a Bottega Veneta Knot – a classic box clutch with its signature weave. Yes, put that in my wish list. This limited edition Knot India is a love at first sight. Specially designed for India in conjunction with “The Knot: A Retrospective” exhibition in Mumbai, this limited edition box clutch will debut at Bottega Veneta’s mumbai store, located at the galleria at Nariman Point. And, only 25 of these beauties will be available from December 9. Coveted? Totally. Bubster thinks it looks like a “fancy pineapple” – I think it’s a keeper! Rumour has it that 20 of them have been reserved… and only five more are up for grabs! I wonder how much is this baby – any idea?
