Kenneth Jay Lane Eros Clutch | Black Crinkle Patent Leather Art Deco Purse with Green Stone

Posted on: Aug 30

Kenneth Jay Lane embodies art deco style with its Eros clutch. It's named after the Greek god of love and lust, and its inspiring equal measures of both in me!

The black patent leather finish is sleek and smooth. This sophisticated leather is lovely but basic, allowing the pale green stone accent to take center stage. This lovely gem is embellished with a smattering of rhinestones. Decorative bars flank the push lock closure, adding an extra dash of style to this simple design.

The slim profile looks chic, but it makes storage nearly impossible. I love the inclusion of a small mirror for make-up touch-ups, but I'm not sure where I'd stash my cosmetics! With little space on offer, I suppose the lack of shoulder strap isn't surprising. Where would we hide it when we weren't using it? Still, once a night wears on I long for this modern convenience.

There are a few practical setbacks, but the chic styling of the Eros makes me want to forgive them all. This is one little purse that knows how to makes a big impression.
