Anya Hindmarch Marano Purse | Elegant Gold Leather Box Clutch

Posted on: Nov 11

Anya Hindmarch keeps it chic and simple with the stylish Marano clutch.

The back to basics box design appears like polished metal from a distance, but it's actually made from gold leather. That should make it a little lighter to carry, and it's a good thing too because the Marano doesn't come with one of those convenient tuck-away chains.

While I'm griping about the practical limitations, it's worth commenting about the size. It's on the small side, and its structured shape means you simply can't over-stuff it. You may fit your keys and cards inside, but don't be surprised if you need to leave a few of your favorite items at home.

It might not be Anya Hindmarch's most practical creation, but it's hard not to love the Marano's simple good looks. From the smooth curved lines to the modern metal fastener, this is a bag that can impress without taking focus away from your evening attire.

  • A small internal pocket
  • Suede lined interior
  • Measures 7 x 4 x 2 inches

Whiting & Davis Iridescent Boa Foldover Clutch | Mesh and Snakeskin Printed Leather Handbag

Posted on: Nov 8

This Whiting & Davis handbag is just the sort of shiny thing that would attract a magpie. With its combination of gleaming brass mesh material and shimmery printed leather, the Iridescent Boa Foldover Clutch is certainly no wallflower of a handbag.

It is, however, infinitely appropriate for cocktail parties and other dressy events where you can make a statement with gleaming accessories. To be honest, it's not really what I'm used to seeing from the brand since Whiting & Davis bags often have a vintage vibe. Some of the label's recent details have been veering toward the contemporary, though, and I'd place the Boa Foldover clutch somewhere in between the two extremes.

Snakeskin and other exotic prints are quite the rage right now, placing this handbag right on trend. The effect here seems to be more about the shimmer than the texture, however.

I always like a foldover bag design, but Whiting & Davis made this one ever more interesting by mixing up the materials. The top half, which displays the handbag's modern cutout handles but also folds down when used as a clutch, is constructed from the prismatic snake-printed leather. Underneath that, the bottom half is made from the brand's signature brass metal mesh material in solid black. Although I wouldn't call it a very versatile look, this Iridescent Boa Foldover Clutch could go a long way for party attire.

More Features of the Iridescent Boa Foldover Clutch

  • Measures 11 x 5.75 x 1.75 inches
  • Cutout handles with 1.5 inch drop
  • Foldover style
  • Retail price of $195

Carlos Falchi Box Clutch | Shiny Anaconda Snakeskin Handbag

Posted on: Oct 20

Carlos Falchi might be getting ready to see the release of an affordable line of faux snakeskin handbags at Target, but that doesn't mean that the designer isn't still churning out other designs made from the real deal.

For genuine anaconda snakeskin leather from a designer label, I'm actually not completely aghast at the Carlos Falchi Box Clutch's price tag of $595. Honestly, I wouldn't have been shocked to see it a bit higher. That doesn't, however, lessen its designer quality or appeal. It is a Carlos Falchi, after all.

The exotic skin is a signature of the label, and snakeskin seems to be a particular favorite. Similar to the Flat Python Clutch, this Box Clutch has no surprising features or unexpected details besides the unique texture. It's a typical size for a small clutch bag, has simple, clean lines, and is altogether classy.

There's just a little something about the scaly skin that kind of makes me go ick, but that certainly wouldn't deter me from carrying around this little luxury bag. If anaconda doesn't do it for you, there are other options for the Box Clutch style. For about twice the price, you can get this Carlos Falchi design in ostrich or crocodile.

More Features of the Anaconda Box Clutch

  • Measures 6.5 x 4 x 1.75 inches
  • Optional chain strap with 15 inch drop
  • Front flap with magnetic closure

Kotur Sibal Shoulder Bag | Affordable and Stylish Ayers Snakeskin Leather Purse

Posted on: Feb 6

Who says you have to pay thousands for an authentic snakeskin handbag? Kotur's Sibal has the exotic style we love, without the four-figure price tag.

The Ayers snakeskin finish is exotic without appearing as ostentatious as an anaconda or python. Swatches of the luxurious skin are stitched together to create a subtle striped pattern. A fabric this exquisite deserves to take center stage, so hardware is kept to a minimum.

The vintage frame ensures the Sibal holds its shape, no matter how much you've stashed inside. It doesn't have the ample space many modern girls crave, but there's enough room to take care of your daily essentials. Dual slip pockets and a zippered compartment help you keep your handbag organized and clutter-free. But my favorite feature is the matching coin purse with its kiss lock closure. It's just so cute!

I love the clean crisp look of this white handbag, but I'm a little worried it might show stains over time. If you are too, you can choose the Sibal in sand dune brown or olive green.

At $915 retail, the Sibal shoulder bag isn't likely to be an impulse buy. But when you compare it with other snakeskin purses on the market, it's an absolute bargain.

More Features of This Kotur Sibal Shoulder Bag

  • Hidden magnetic closure
  • Suede lined interior
  • A single shoulder strap with a 6 inch drop
  • Measures 9.5 x 8 x 4 inches

Kara Ross Lucis Clutch | Luxury Ostrich and Patent Leather Purse

Posted on: Jan 12

From the television screen to the red carpet, plenty of stars have fallen in love with the Lucis clutch from Kara Ross. Nico Reilly carried the natural python purse on Lipstick Jungle, while Lake Bell rocked the black anaconda clutch at the Downtown Film Festival.

The front flap design is a classic, but that doesn't mean it's boring. The tab closure features exotic leather, while the shiny gunmetal hardware is inlaid with faceted rock crystal. A magnetic seal under the tab offers security without disturbing the clutch's elegant good looks.

A large pocket in front of the main compartment offers more bang for your buck. The main section is luxuriously lined with suede and fitted with a zippered pocket on the back wall. Two slot lock tabs underneath the main flap help to hold the detachable patent leather strap. This shoulder strap is still a little skinny, but it's a lot more comfortable than those clutch chain straps we're used to!

The Lucis is available in a range of vibrant exotic leathers, including lizard, python, and alligator. All those colored luxury leathers make some of the clutches look a little busy. Personally I can't resist the understated charms of this white ostrich and patent leather purse. If only I had a spare $1600!

More Features of This Kara Ross Lucis Clutch

  • A removable shoulder strap with a 16 inch drop
  • Measures 12 x 6 x 1.5 inches
  • Comes with a signature dust cover

Carlos Falchi Grande Boat Hobo Bag | Sophisticated Patent Leather and Snakeskin Purses

Posted on: Dec 5

Luxury designer Carlos Falchi has brought his trademark sophisticated style to the popular hobo with this Grande Boat bag.

I have a serious case of bag lust for this purple Ortensia purse. The lush anaconda skin gives the hobo a sexy scaled finish. But you'll pay $2910 for the privilege of carrying this exotic beauty, putting it out of the reach of many fashion lovers. The glossy patent leather isn't quite as glamorous as its cousin, but at $595 it's a lot easier on the budget. These more affordable hobos are available in ready-to-wear black and white shades.

The roomy interior is divided by a full length zippered compartment to make organization easy. Extra pockets and pouches in the front and back walls are perfect for stashing your cell phone, sunglasses, and loose change. A magnetic snap closure keeps all your goodies safely inside without interrupting the hobo's sleek style.

All Grande Boat bags feature gorgeous braided straps. These durable dual handles feel heavenly on your shoulders or in the palm of your hand.

More Features of This Carlos Falchi Hobo Handbag

  • Floral printed fabric lining
  • Dual shoulder straps with a 7 inch drop
  • Measures 11.75 x 14 x 6.5 inches
  • Comes with a dust bag for storage
  • Made in the United States of America
