Cleobella Hudson Clutch | Studded Tribal Envelope Leather Purse

Posted on: Aug 18

Cleobella Hudson Clutch Cleobella brings a contemporary edge to tribal fashion with this Hudson clutch.

The zig zag print is popular on ethnic themed accessories, but I've never seen it made with studs. The colored metal discs take this African inspired purse into the urban jungle. I really like the way they modernize the angular lines. I'm not always a fan of combining different colored metals, but they really work against the ivory leather. This neutral tone could have easily appeared boring, but the gold and silver studs save it.

The Hudson is a fairly large clutch, so it could easily work during the day or the evening. This generous space is complemented by a leather trimmed zipper pocket, which is much more useful than the tiny slips we typically see. Large clutches can often become unmanageable, but the slouchy design should make this one easy to carry by hand. And if you do struggle you can always pull out the silver chain strap.

I'd ordinarily hesitate to spend $330 on a clutch purse, but the Hudson's versatility and its high quality craftsmanship makes me think it'll be worth the splurge.
