When all my gal pals gushed over Balenciaga, I stayed back while they snatched up all the latest colors. For some reason, I just am not super excited about Balenciaga. It was fun and edgy but not really my style because it is too trendy thus will become dated soon. This remained true until last week. I didn't know what compelled me to venture into the boutique but I did. Anyhoo, I came across the giant envelop clutch which if I were to invest in a clutch this year, this lovely would be such candidate. There are so many yummy colors but I am leaning toward deep purple as black is too boring and pink is too girlie for the long haul. Purple will go with everything from basic neutral colors to red, pink, yellow and even green; and purple is great year-round color.

This clutch offers fairly simple silhouette yet the metallic hardware offers a perfect balance of fun edge without going over the top. This piece will be stylish for years without becoming overly dated.

As we know with clutch, it is important to be roomy enough for a gal to bring all her necessities such as wallet, cell phone and such. The Giant Envelop clutch measures 12 x 7 x 1.5 inches which is perfect for day or evening, except for the most formal of events. There are 2 compartments on the inside and right under the flap which opens to a third compartments should be plenty of room unless a gal insists on bringing her kitchen sink. The price ain't great but almost acceptable at $995. What do you think, too trendy or just right?

I, too, held back on a BBag because I was concerned it would become outdated. However, it has been a couple of years since my girlfriends bought theirs and they still carry it. Dare I say that it is a classic staple? Some of the colors are simply yummy!
ReplyDeleteGet. It. Now. Personally, I'm partial to the plum/eggplant color. It's unique, yet would pair fabulously with black, gray, white...
ReplyDeleteI am with you on the B-bag but the clutch looks pretty basic.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely get it if I could afford it.
