Nicole Miller gives the classic box clutch a healthy dose of bling with the Lexi.
In fact, perhaps Nicole Miller’s overdosed on the sparkles. She’s used chunky faceted rhinestones here to create an artful art deco design. The motif takes up much of the Lexi’s front, so there’s certainly no ignoring it. The white gems look more elegant than colored stones would have, but their size is likely to turn many girls off. I’m all for bold style statements, but delicate jewels would have appeared much more elegant.
Box clutches always present a practical challenge, as their structure design limits storage space. They’re already small, and they definitely can’t be overstuffed. But I appreciate the little conveniences Nicole Miller’s added, including a small cosmetics mirror, a zippered pocket, and a chain strap. I’d have preferred a detachable chain, as the interior quickly becomes cluttered once its tucked away, but I can’t fault all those little additions.
At $209.95 the Lexi isn’t cheap, but it’s also not unreasonably priced for a designer purse with such rich looks. You’ll need to consult your social calendar to decide whether you’ll see value for money!
