Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr.Q Magazine Clutch | Soft Oversized Black Leather Clutch

58 sec read

As usual, Marc Jacobs is leading the pack when it comes to current trends. He basically invented the oversized clutch, and his Marc by Marc Jacobs label consistently produces some of the most coveted clutches around. The Dr. Q Magazine Clutch is certainly no exception. Ever since its 2008 debut, it has caused a sensation with celebrities like Lauren Conrad, and on famous street fashion blogs like The Satorialist.

What I love about this bag is that it satisfies a trend in a thoroughly modern, streamlined way. It doesn’t have many bells or whistles, but, with its chic straight-forward design, it doesn’t need any.

The elegant foldover style looks soft and makes the clutch versatile, sizewise. In total, it measures 14″ x 10″ x 2″, and while it doesn’t make sense to fill it to the top (that would kind of defeat the purpose of the foldover), you could basically put as much or as little in the clutch as you like, and it would still look cool.

The foldover flap top opens to the interior compartment with a leather-trimmed zip pocket, and there is an additional long zipped pocket underneath the flap. The polished silver metal hardware is a great contrast to the supple black leather, and the large silver and black logo plate isn’t too distracting.

The Dr. Q Magazine clutch is an elegant bag for carrying a few things by day, and would still work with more formal evening wear. This is a super hip bag with lines simple enough to seduce even a few stalwart tradtionalists.
