I’m going to a wedding for the first time in a couple years. As always with shopping for a special occasion, I’m reminded of all the things I don’t have; one of which is a party clutch.
Listen, I’m like most other rational people, I only buy what I need! And considering I haven’t attended a wedding in nearly 3 years, I definitely haven’t needed a clutch in as long if not longer.
So when my partner invited me to this wedding, I immediately added a cute party clutch to my shopping list.
What is a Clutch?
A clutch at its most basic is defined as a handbag that requires to be “clutched”. Usually, they don’t have straps or handles so the only way to carry them is by grabbing them from the top or bottom.
As you can imagine, they’re usually pretty small; it would be quite uncomfortable to hold a large bag using only your fingers. Although when in history has comfort ever stopped fashion? Because of course, large and somewhat cumbersome clutches do exist.
Actually, I’m seeing more of them on fashion sites: giant envelope-shaped clutches, large fan-shaped clutches and other unique shapes. Sometimes big is better even if it means straining your fingers and/or hand!
Where Can you Bring a Clutch?
A clutch is an ideal accessory for special events. You don’t want to lug around a tote with a bunch of stuff you don’t need!
So it’s ideal to opt for a small clutch; it’s discreet enough to hold a few items while also being a perfect opportunity to accessorize a little more! The right clutch is like the right necklace – It can completely pull a look together.
Now, I need the right bag for this island trip. I’ve never owned a clutch I really loved so this vacation is the perfect opportunity to invest in something I’m excited about!
In my hunt for the perfect clutch, I ended up falling in love with five! Previously, my problem was no clutch. Now, my problem is too many good clutch options!
I compiled the following list of my top choices for a new bag. Which would you grab first?
