The party season for end of 2013 is swinging into season soon, here’s a look at some gorgeous clutches to accessorize your outfits!
From Alexander McQueen…
Left to Right: Skull-embellished patent-leather clutch, Knuckle sequined box clutch, Suede and mink box clutch, Britannia Skull studded suede box clutch
If you like skulls, you cannot go wrong with Alexander McQueen. I am sooo tempted to purchase the skull studded version!
From Anya Hindmarch
Left to Right: Marano Music Box leather wind-up clutch, Valorie glitter-finished clutch, Marano beaded washed-satin and leather box clutch, Caspar glitter clutch
The Duchess of Cambridge has a navy leather marano clutch from Anya Hindmarch.
From Accessorize.com
Left to Right: Scallop and Pearl Flap Cross Body Bag, Union Jack Hardcase Clutch, Flutter Butterfly Clutch.
I think the Union Jack Hardcase is an alternative to the Alexander McQueen version and the flutter butterfly clutch by accessorize is an alternative for the Bottega Veneta Butterfly woven leather clutch shown below.

The double duty clutches
Left to Rights: Iris & Iris Calfhair clutch, Whistles Stevie Double Clutch, Marc Jacobs Single, Mulberry Willow bag
The above examples would work twice as hard for your money! You can use them as pouches to store stuff in your everyday tote bag (for the Iris & Iris or Whistles). You can use them as clutches by folding the slings into the bags(the Whistles or Marc Jacobs) or as cross body slingbags with the slings. The Mulberry bag allows you to detach the clutch from the bag itself when the need arises!
The fold-over clutches
Left to Right: Saint Laurent Letters leather clutch, LK Bennett Drew Leather Folded Clutch, Whistles Grosvenor Clutch
There seems to be a trend for fold-over clutches this season with a few designers producing this design. We have a pure black leather folded clutch from Saint Laurent, a leopard print calf hair and leather folded clutch bag from LK Bennett and a a navy contrasting calf hair and leather folded clutch from Whistles.
The bags are avaliable at theoutnet, accessorize, whistles, net-a-porter, lkbennett.
