I don’t know about you, but I don’t like to spend a lot of money on after-five accessories. My social calendar just isn’t busy enough to justify a purse that won’t get a serious workout. However, all too often affordable clutch purses look just as cheap as their prices. So I’m thrilled to find the Reva from J. Renee, a clutch that’s worth every cent of its $89.95 tag.
J. Renee’s used a few clever techniques to give this purse a luxurious feel. Firstly there’s the choice of fabric rather than a synthetic. Synthetic might try to imitate leather, but it never quite does the job. Fabric doesn’t try to be anything other than what it is, and the effect is always much classier. I’m particularly enthusiastic about the choice of colors, which are muted interpretations of our favorite metallics. These subtle shades might not turn as many heads, but they’re much more elegant than the brassy versions we so often see.
The silky fabric on the Reva’s envelope-style flap is gathered to create narrow decorative rivers. These pin-tucked lines are smattered with a light sprinkling of diamantes which give the Reva just a hint of bling.
This is quite a practical clutch, so you might be able to put it to work during the day too. It’s certainly offers more space than the average, but with a chain strap ready to play it never feels unmanageable. There’s also a large zippered pocket tucked away inside to help you keep things in order.
The more I think about the Reva, the more I wonder why folks spend a fortune on their evening accessories. This one does the job with style and saves more money for cocktails!
