Plaits are big in the accessories market this winter, as they seem to be popping up all over the place. They add a simple glamour without having to over-embellish.

This Treesje clutch uses the plait decoration in quite an unusual way. The coordinating leather loops around the curved handbag, and actually has a strange belting effect. Whilst without this detail the purse could look a little like a school pencil case, the braid transforms it into something that is undoubtedly fashion oriented.

Although the decoration makes it work, I am still not personally convinced by the shape. It is just a little peculiar, although I am happy to admit that there is a decent amount of room inside thanks to the wider base and crafty curves.

With a caramel brown exterior, this Slate purse is bound to have fans and enemies. Which are you?
