Santi Blake Clutch | Sequined Handbag with Black and Silver Pattern

Posted on: Oct 19

With the winter holiday season rapidly approaching, it's time to start thinking about the perfect party accessories. Glittery clutches are always appropriate for dressy holiday events, and any of Santi's options are sure to make a statement.

This Santi Blake clutch, with its black and silver pattern and shimmering body, reminds me quite a bit of the Whiting & Davis Chevron Jelly Roll bag. Although Whiting & Davis's creation is made from metal mesh and Santi favors sequins and satin, the patterns on the two handbags are strikingly similar.

I'm not sure that sequins are the best option since they aren't known for being particularly sturdy. The metal mesh on the Chevron Jelly Roll might be a better option for durability. However, Santi's clutches aren't cheaply made, and the Blake will most likely hold up just fine with light use during special events.

Although slim in design, this Santi bag is a decent size for a party clutch since bare necessities are all that's required. There's even a handy optional chain strap that tucks in neatly when not in use. I prefer the look of this sequined clutch without the strap, but it's nice to have the option available.
