Nina Ricci Suede Clutch | Chic Asymmetrical Salmon Pink Purse

Posted on: May 7

Nina Ricci keeps it simple with this chic clutch.

It's the antidote to all those overworked evening purses covered in sparkling sequins, glittering rhinestones, frills and frippery. Instead the lines are smooth, and the details are kept to a bare minimum.

Of course basic never means boring where Nina Ricci is concerned. The highlight is the asymmetrical flap top closure, which adds interest without overwhelming the design. The salmon suede is unexpected too. Pink could never be called conservative, but the pastel shade is just subdued enough to provide pop without dominating an outfit.

While that minimalistic approach gives this clutch a sleek look, it also sees us do without the little extras we love. There are no interior pockets, and no shoulder strap tucked inside either. What you see is really what you'll get.

It looks so stylish brand new, but I'm not convinced of this clutch's staying power. Suede has a tendency to look worn, and the pale pink hue isn't likely to hide battle scars. I suggest treating this purse with kid gloves if you hope to carry it for a few seasons.
