Toss Designs Serengeti Clutch
How do you make an evening bag wild? Add a brightly colored exotic animal print. That’s just what Toss Designs did with their Serengeti Clutch. It features a fierce zebra pattern printed on elegant satin and while it is available in black and white, the orange and white version is truly eye-catching.
Unlike most clutches, this one actually has an interior pocket perfect for a small cell phone or other small item. It’s a great way to ensure that you can find your most important item easily.
Find the Toss Designs Serengeti Clutch at eBags for $36.00.
Jessica Jensen Envelope Clutch
I am loving the new Jessica Jensen Envelope Clutch. I keep seeing more and more envelope inspired clutches that are too large and bluky to be considered a clutch in my opinion. This one actually resembles an envelope in size as well as style. Although it comes in a variety of colors, I went for the grey leather because I love its great worn-in and distressed look. It easily takes me from day to night and goes with practically any outfit. This one is a definite MUST HAVE!
So What Do Guys Want in a Formal Clutch?
Ok, so here is the long and short of it. Guys know that girls buy their handbags to impress other girls. But guess what! We do actually notice that new J. Furmani clutch you bought just for our formal event. We may not know the exact designer or model, but we sure notice if it looks good. So now that our great secret is revealed, what exactly do guys want to see in their date’s handbag?
1. We like style as much as you. If you are getting attention for that awesome new Venessa Satin Gathered Clutch you brought, that means our date is stylish and classy. And what guys doesn’t want to be seen with a classy, elegant girl? It’s as good for our style (and ego!) as it is yours.
2. Don’t bring a handbag that you don’t want to carry around. This may go without saying, but as much as we love how good you look with your new accessory, we don’t want to be stuck holding it all night. So bring a bag that you don’t mind either setting down or holding for the majority of the night.
3. Every couple has their own unique style and flair. We know that our friends will coin pairs as “the fun couple”, “the elegant couple”, or the “trendy couple”. Therefore, we like it when our dates dress and style reflects our style of relationship. For instance, if we are the outgoing, trendy duo, we would love to see our date sport something like the Magid Pleated Satin Clutch in Fuscia.
4. If you can’t decide between two bags, ask us! Like I said, guys do notice their date’s accessories, and despite how much we may act like we don’t care, we actually do have opinions on which looks better with your outfit!

Hobo International Lauren Clutch
I am IN LOVE with my new Hobo clutch! It is the first bag in a long time that not only meets my expectations, but completely exceeds them. I have had countless issues over the years with clutches that either don’t have enough secure pockets or, if they do, they are so bulky and heavy that carrying them as a clutch makes my arm quiver in exhaustion.
So, after seemingly endless searching, I have finally found the answer…The Hobo International Lauren Clutch. This clutch is the perfect marriage of style and versatility. Its design answers every possible storage problem for the girl that doesn’t want to be weighed down by a larger than necessary bag for a night out for dinner, drinks, or anything that might come her way!
The Wedding Month Is Here
June is traditionally the month for weddings. Obviously weddings can occur in any month and any season, but since June is almost here, we’re featuring white handbags for brides and for all budgets.
Night Life
You’re sitting at home after your shift at work contemplating what to do. You soon realize that there isn’t anything to do…yet. Summer is coming and along with it comes the beach by day, and the club by night.
Thinking about the beach doesn’t excite you because the beach is casual, laid-back. You can throw on a pair of sweats and a bikini and get away with it. It’s the thought of the club that boils your blood. You begin to think about the perfect outfit to match those new shoes you just bought. You have every detail planned when suddenly, the most agonizing question arises: “What purse am I going to take?”
Most women would agree that an outfit isn’t complete without the right shoes and the right bag. I can’t possibly be the only woman on Earth who feels this way. At the same time, no one wants to take a big bag to the club and have to worry about it all night.
Fortunately, fashion does meet function with evening handbags. In a juxtaposition to the ever popular oversized handbags are the smaller, more convenient clutches and wristlets. Many designers have jumped on the bandwagon and created many stylish bags that can be taken for a night on the town. But don’t let the size fool you. Designers have created these bags with fun twists such as animal prints, metallics, ruffles, beads and rhinestones.
Among these designers is a company called La Regale. They create fun, trendy clutches and wristlets many at very reasonable prices. There is a clutch for every style. If you’re the artsy, creative type go for the Metallic Collage Elongated Clutch. If you’re a more sophisticated, polished woman, the Rhinestone Topped Satin Clutch is for you. Both bags are under $40.
Whatever your style, there is a way to be fashionable and functional when you go out this spring and summer. Leave the oversized tote bags at home and opt for a chic clutch instead. Not only will you be able to dance without a weight hanging from your shoulder, you’ll be able to have a good night without worrying about purse snatchers.

Handbags on a Budget
What Are Wristlets? Why Do You Want One?
Have you ever found yourself wanting to carry something a little larger than a standard wallet but not quite as big as a shoulder bag? Sure a clutch would do the trick, but you want something with a handle. Enter the wristlet!
Wristlets are basically wallets or pouches with a handle so they can be easily carried by hand or on your wrist. These bags are perfect for when you only need a few essentials – a few makeup items, a small amount of cash, keys, a small phone, and a few cards. Like their larger counterparts, wristlets can also be very stylish with bright colors, unique materials, and beautiful patterns.
