The same goes for designers. Alexander McQueen, in his reign as fashion's leading bad boy, has done both. Say what you like about him, but he never fails to surprise, and every time I think he's gone off the deep end with something I hate, he comes back and hits me with something amazing like the Squeeze It clutch.

First of all, I could not think of a more perfect name for this bag. The Squeeze It clutch looks exactly as though the hot pink patent leather has been squeezed into shape by loving hands. The delicate stitching gives just enough texture to the bag for me to know that it was carefully crafted, instead of molded by machine.

Everything about the surface of the Squeeze It is deliciously high-gloss. I love the candy-colored leather combined with the almost candy-shaped exterior. The shiny silver magnetic clasp fits right in the nook of the squished-in middle of the clutch, which makes it seem like a natural part of a purse that is beautiful in a very unnatural way.

While the bag is both longish and widish for a clutch, at 12.5" x 8" x 1", it is a bit slim, and fitting all your party gear in might be something of a heady task. And at a retail price of over $1,000, it might be a purse that is also a little hard to purchase, given the current economic downturn. So, while the Squeeze It is a feast for the eyes, it might not be the most practical accessory. Despite all that, I find its bold appeal more than a little hard to resist. It could add amazing punch to your favorite little black dress, or bring your denim up to couture level.
