Yves Saint Laurent Satin Ribbon Clutch | Black Velvet Evening Bag

Posted on: Apr 23

Looking for a luxe evening accessory to jazz up last year's formal gown? Start with this Yves Saint Laurent Satin Ribbon Clutch and it will hardly matter what else you're wearing. It may not exactly be cost-efficient, but it will add an of-the-moment piece to your look, whether you're going to a charity event or a wedding.

This is a statement bag that doesn't scream too loud. The black on black detailing keeps the look of criss-crossing satin and velvet ribbons subtle, with a proportionately large velvet bow providing the main decorative statement.

The bag is small, so it will look nice with shorter frocks but would perhaps get lost worn with a large, opulent gown.

In a classic box shape, the bag features gold-tone hardware (silver might have been chicer and more modern) and fastens with a black and gold clasp. There are two pockets inside, but I'm not sure what you could actually fit inside them other than a credit card and a lipstick.
