“Envelope clutch” has been a buzzword on every handbag guru’s lips this spring, and the trend of simple fold-over purses doesn’t look like running out of steam any time soon.
This Jessica Jensen purse takes the envelope concept and endeavors to make the idea even more literal. If you were just glancing at this minimalist purse, you could be forgiven for mistaking it for a real envelope!
At first look this simple and unobtrusive style does seem to work, offering easy coordination and accessorizing perfect for toning down complex evening dresses. After a while, however, I feel the design would lose its novelty, and something with a bit more oomph would be preferable. Perhaps a contrasting trim or novelty stitching would have helped with this clutch’s longevity.
Whilst limited a little by its lack of a handle option, this clean and sleek clutch is saved somewhat by the outstanding quality of the materials: soft calf-leather where the only embellishment is the decadence of the mottled surface. You won’t fit much in, but at least it comes in enough gentle colors to mean you can have a different version for every dress!
