Jimmy Choo Ina Small Nappa Leather Clutch | Star-Studded Sunny Yellow Leather Fringed Clutch

Posted on: Jul 2

Jimmy Choo is a designer that has spawned a whole generation of dedicated fashionistas. His posh uptown meets bohemian style is iconic and classic. In the past few seasons his designers have become hipper and edgier and have attracted a younger generation of fashion lovers. Unfortunately, I don't think this Ina clutch appeals to either his long-standing or newly-converted fans.

The bright yellow leather has a great gloss on it, and the curtains of fringe look fun and luxurious. But the western elements that the Ina is attempting to incorporate just aren't working here. The curvy seaming between the layers of fringe could be interesting, but once you add the star stud detail, it just becomes ridiculous.

The silver logo plaque, although small and relatively hidden, reinforces the kitschy cowgirl aesthetic of the clutch. Honestly, this looks like something that Eddie from Absolutely Fabulous would wear, so if label-crazed name droppers are your style icons, then you're in luck. Otherwise, just stick to Mr. Choo's more pared down designs.
