Although pretty, this layered satin clutch from Menbur reminds me somewhat of a roof tiled in slate. I think it is the pattern, and the way those folded ruffles slope out from the curved metal clasp. Still, no matter, because as it happens that is an effect I really enjoy!

If you want a black evening bag with style, then this Madeline wristlet may just take the biscuit.
