D&G Dolce & Gabbana Vlada Clutch | Jewel-Covered Red Satin Handbag

Posted on: Oct 22

This glitzy D&G Vlada Clutch is practically begging for a glamorous winter party to attend. I cannot even look at this handbag without mentally pairing it with a fabulous cocktail dress, which is surely what Dolce & Gabbana had in mind. I'm guessing I am not the only one.

Only in a handful of social circles would a $1,475 special occasion accessory that you carry once or twice a year be considered a budget buy. For the rest of us, maybe we can categorize this one as a long-term fashion investment. A D&G bag isn't going to fall apart on you any time soon when taken care of well. While it might be a little trendy, this Dolce & Gabbana Vlada design is one that I can imagine continuing to be considered stylish for years and then vintage chic later on.

Though the majority of the clutch is a solid, gorgeous deep red satin, the front flap is covered with a veritable galaxy of shimmering jewels. It's the kind of feature that will sparkle in certain lighting and look absolutely stunning.

The keyhole-shaped closure is a clever twist-lock contraption that adds a whimsical touch to this fancy clutch. Although the Vlada bag comes in an equally elegant black, it's this ruby red color that I consider the prettier, more unexpected option.
