The simple things in life are often the best, but sometimes they’re just downright boring. The jury’s still out on what camp the Sleek clutch from Whiting & Davis falls into.
I admit, my first impression was to dismiss this purse as a half-hearted attempt from the metal mesh masters. The Sleek’s really simple, and it seems a bit dull in comparison to Whiting & Davis’ recent boundary-pushing releases. But the more I look at it and realize its features, the more I’m tempted to change my point of view.
A polyurethane strap helps this clutch convert to a shoulder bag once the drinks trays start to circulate. I appreciate the use of PU over chain here, as it’ll be much kinder on bare evening shoulders. This is a very slender bag though, which is both a blessing and a curse. While it’ll look just as sleek as its name suggests, it’ll show lumps and bumps if you try to overstuff it.
The Sleek isn’t a purse to steal the show. Instead it’s meant to complement an eye-catching outfit, and it does that job very well. So long as you know how to travel light, this versatile Whiting & Davis clutch represents excellent value at $83.
