The relationship between fur and fashion these days is a tenuous one. The soft pelts of animals have always symbolized opulence, but animal rights activists remind us that no creature should give its life to help us look good. If you don’t mind the ethical implications, this Eden Vision clutch from Christian Louboutin is a gorgeous clutch to carry this winter.
There’s something so inviting about the plush fur ball made from genuine mink. It’s the kind of thing you want to bury your hands in, and rub up against your face. Just be careful exactly where you’re rubbing it though, as that pretty pair of silver shoes that form the kisslock clasp is bound to scratch!
This is really a purse that’s more about luxurious good looks than practicality though. The round shape is gorgeous, but it leaves storage space seriously lacking. I suggest pairing this with a trench full of deep pockets to hold everything you need on an evening out.
I suppose I shouldn’t come down too hard though. At least there’s a shoulder chain, although I’ll bet the temptation to clutch it by hand will be difficult to resist! It’s a great addition once the hors d’oeuvres plates arrive though!
Christian Louboutin doesn’t give us a lot of bag for our dollar though, with this Eden Vision clutch clocking in at $1395. Maybe it’s time to hunt down a faux fur alternative!
