Mar Y Sol adds a little glitz to its eco-friendly raffia accessories line with the Lola Clutch. But has the label done enough to convince you?
At its core this is a very traditional Mar Y Sol purse. Its compact flap-over body is crafted from hand-braided sustainable raffia. That’s nothing new for the brand, but it helps root the Lola in Mar Y Sol’s traditions. The flower-shaped sequins which dot the Lola are something new though.
These glittery accents are very cute, but I’m not sure they really work on this purse. They simply appear tacked on, rather than becoming a cohesive part of the clutch. It’s a step in the right direction if Mar Y Sol hopes to step into after five wear, but it hasn’t quite gotten there yet.
Considering its intricate hand done design, the Lola’s probably worth the $79 Mar Y Sol’s charging. However its appearance doesn’t quite match the bottom line. If you’re looking for a playful day clutch the Lola might fit the bill, but it’ll never take you through to the evening no matter how hard it tries.
