Textured handbags seem to be an emerging trend for the upcoming spring season. Casual materials like straw and woven leather are popping up alongside the continually popular textures of python and croc.
This faux snake skin clutch is an example of how a material can transition into a different season with new colors. The Big Buddha Veronica, though also available in season-less black, brown, and red colors, becomes a key spring accessory in the bright blue and orange options.
I always find myself a bit hesitant about clutches because of their generally impractical nature. However, this one is no smaller nor any less functional that most clutches around. I wouldn’t classify it as oversized like so many others these days, but it is a reasonable size for storing a few important items without having to leave too many at home.
The cutout handles are a nice visual feature, whether or not you plan to use them. They certainly aren’t the most comfortable option for carrying a handbag, but Big Buddha must’ve realized that when designing the Veronica because they have also included a convenient detachable chain strap.
If you’re looking for a decently sized clutch for the spring, this one will do just fine. I suggest opting for the vibrant blue color unless you’re looking for one to take you through all four seasons. The Big Buddha Veronica is easy on the wallet, too, as it retails for only $75.
