Matt & Nat is known for being a warm, fuzzy brand dedicated to saving the planet with its animal-friendly, vegan leather accessories. It seems the label wanted us to know it’s got a few edges with the release of the Malik Nappa-Style clutch. I don’t know about you, but this purse doesn’t fool me one bit.
I assume the haphazard placement of the differently sized pyramid studs is intended to evoke a dangerous, rock and roll feel, but instead it just seems sloppy to me. It’s almost as if a child was handed a glue gun and studs! I expect more from a designer accessory really.
Such a spiky purse probably won’t be comfortable to carry by hand, so I admire Matt & Nat’s decision to add a detachable wrist strap. But again, there’s a problem in the execution. I suppose the chunky chain is again supposed to add attitude, but I can’t imagine it’d feel good on my skin. I’d take more of that soft vegan leather around my wrist any day!
I’m not quite sure how they do things in Nappa, but where I’m from a clutch like this just doesn’t fly.
