Marni Violet Suede Frame Clutch | Attention-Grabbing Ultra-Bright Blue Suede Clutch

Posted on: Mar 9

There's nothing like an super luxurious clutch in an eye-popping hue to perk up an old LBD. Marni brings a fun, irreverent touch to this evening wear style.

The best thing about this bag is that it looks and feels soft to the touch, but is actually a lot more structurally sound than your average clutch. The frame top gives it a tailored, sophisticated shape and makes it more durable. The soft pleating around the edges isn't just a decorative touch. The added fabric acts as reinforcement, and masks any minor dings and scratches.

The color of this bag is like something from under the sea. New, it glows like some exotic creature, but I wonder how the color will fare through years of use. The same goes for the suede. I love the look and feel of it, but I would hate to see it get that rubbed down, pilly look that old suede sometimes gets. So, while the bag is sturdy on the inside, the outside is a little delicate.

At 11" x 11" x 4", it is a nice oversized clutch. You could fit as much in here as you wanted to, or at least as much as you could possibly want for an evening out. Overall, I really like the look of the Marni Violet Suede Frame Clutch, but I'm not sure about its ability to look good long term.
