JJ Winters has, in her short term as one of Hollywood’s leading handbag designers, managed to collect a coveted A-list entourage. And purses like this one are exactly the reason why. Drawing on the contemporary clutch trend and combining it with retro acid wash, JJ Winters brings the best of two eras together in in the Acid Wash Cow Clutch.
The unique metallic finish is really what makes this bag amazing. The acid wash adds multiple dimensions of texture to the silver metallic cowhide. To create the effect, acid is used to burn holes in the fur of the cow, leaving some parts of the bag smooth and others rough.
I love the way the simple rectangular shape of the clutch allows the many textures of the material to shine through. The flap front has three hidden magnetic closures, and the upraised stitched strap detail creates a visual centerpiece. The 12″ x 5″ size is generous enough to carry your keys, wallet, PDA, and probably multiple tubes of gloss.
At around ten ounces, this clutch is lightweight and easy to carry in your hand or tucked under your arm. Regardless of how you hold it, the beautiful silver finish will set off the color of any party dress, be it basic black or vibrant violet. And at a retail price of under $300, this is is one pretty purse you don’t have to feel guilty putting on your Christmas list.
