Sometimes I just have to laugh at Betsey Johnson’s quirky but fun handbag names like Party Hearty and Made In The Fade. I’ll admit that I was expecting something completely different when I ran across the name of this Whips & Studs Clutch, but the actual handbag turned out to be even better than I had imagined.
Although I’m sure I’m not the only one who can envision a bedazzled and tassel-covered creation from the designer, this Whips & Studs purse earns its name from one lone, yet rather large, tassel with a simple stud-like detail around the top which hangs from the zipper pull. Just admit that if you hadn’t already seen the image of it you’d be picturing something a little more rock-and-roll inspired.
The simple studded detail around the tassel mirrors the intricate diamond-shaped quilted pattern on the leather, or perhaps it’s the other way around. Either way, the two features, studs and quilting, complement each other beautifully.
This clutch would probably fit right in with the oversized category since it’s larger than many others, but it’s not enormous and bulky like some styles. While quilted leather might not have been what I’d expect from a purse with the name Whips & Studs, this Betsey Johnson design is effortlessly chic and would be a perfect semi-casual accessory for a wardrobe. It just begs for an outfit with subtle edginess like skinny jeans with studded heels or jewelry.
