The Clutch Edit

From raffia vacation pouches to evening clutches, here are my favorite clutches by Saint Laurent, Prada, Louis Vuitton and more, for every occasion.

I’ve always been a clutch girl. I love how minimal they are. No digging through a giant tote, no carrying around things you don’t need. I love the challenge of seeing how much I can fit into a small bag. It’s easier than you’d think if you stick to the essentials: phone, cards, keys and lipstick. Boom!

In today’s post I round up my favorites, from chic raffia styles to a beautiful evening piece that completes a look. A few of these are investment buys, but they’re the timeless kind. You’ll keep them forever and reach for them constantly.

My Top Picks

Saint Laurent Uptown Pouch, $800. It comes in so many colors and materials, and the material changes everything. Raffia reads breezy and vacation-ready. Black patent is pure sexy evening. Same bag, totally different mood.

Prada Saffiano Envelope Clutch, $800. Clean and structured, and Saffiano leather holds up to everything. It also comes in a range of colors, so you can go classic or have a little fun. This is the one you’ll carry for years.

The Rest of the Edit

Toteme Travel Raffia Clutch, $620. Woven raffia with contrast leather trim and a detachable wrist strap. Toss it in your suitcase, then carry it to dinner by the water. It’s exclusive to Net-a-Porter, so grab it there.

Toteme T-Lock Clutch, $990. Grained leather with a strap for when you want your hands free. Polished enough for the office, easy enough for the weekend.

Louis Vuitton Poche Toilette GM, $760. Officially, it’s a toiletry pouch. Unofficially, it’s one of the chicest clutches out there. Classic Monogram canvas with natural leather trim and a zip top that keeps everything secure.

Amanu Zambia Pochette, $645. A sleek black pochette with a brass ring. Beautiful and understated in the best way.

Cult Gaia Nala Mini Clutch, $498. Pleated metallic leather in a fan-shaped shell, available in silver or gold. This is your cocktail dress bag.

Cult Gaia Eos Clutch, $400. Beaded, marbled acrylic and a total conversation piece.

Loeffler Randall Rayne Clutch, $250. I love the pleated metallic lamé with a bow and a chain strap. Available in five colors. Perfect for weddings and holiday parties.

Whatever the occasion, I hope you’ll find a clutch here that will be a perfect fit for you. Less is more; so remember to buy better, buy less, wear more and travel light! xx
