Nicole Richie proves she’s a designer of some mettle with this Marley Clutch from her House of Harlow 1960 line.
At its heart the Marley’s a very simple box clutch. We’ve seen its structured shape and rounded corners many times before. But it’s what Richie does with that base that’s really exciting. She’s chosen a soft mustard colored leather, which has been decorated with a crocodilian texture. It’s not the most convincing croc mimic I’ve seen, but it’s also far from the worse.
The purse’s wild side is enhanced with the jaguar head clasp. The rhinestone-dotted closure reminds me of the metal skulls employed by Alexander McQueen. Only time will tell whether Nicole Richie’s clasps become as iconic!
The Marley is very small, so storage space is a bit of an issue. Frankly you’ll be lucky to fit even your essentials inside it. And don’t even think about overstuffing it; that jaguar clasp will pop open defiantly if you do!
If it were more expensive I might demand substance to match the Marley’s style. But at a relatively affordable $195, I’m happy for just good looks!
