I wrote back earlier how clutch bags have become an important staple in a woman’s wardrobe like the little black dress is. This Stuart Weitzman ‘Grip’ Handbag can be an interesting addition to that wardrobe and I personally like it for the way it looks.

There used to be a time when clutch bags were only great for formal wear. And that the only ones I know who carry them around are older women. But now, clutch bags are as trendy as owning a piece of cross body bags. It can be carried even when you’re just wearing jeans!
Many celebrities are choosing to carry clutches rather than anything else:
Clutches have become such fashionable must-haves lately and I’ve seen a lot of these on displays. I come from the idea or thought that clutches are quite useless bags and there isn’t enough pretty designs to carry around. But in the last couple of years, there have been a lot of clutch bags that actually deliver in style, form and function.
This asymmetrical clutch handbag from Zimmerman may look as if it’s quite difficult to match or carry, or even use. But I love the unusual shape of it as it gives it character and does deliver a fashion statement.
Jill Milan unveiled her latest handbag collection for the season the other day and what a gorgeous collection it is! These luxury handbags are all made from Italy and they do look impeccably made. The clutch bags are the highlight of the set and I love the ones that come in red. Everything about this collection is inspired by the Art Deco era, which is actually quite trendy again.
Buba London is more popular for its jewelry collection. They have some of the most beautifully elabroate designs of necklaces, earrings and bracelets I’ve seen. Theirs are noteworthy pieces that even before accessories became a steller piece in someone’s wardrobe, Buba has already been making gorgeous bling blings that punctuate one’s style.

feNa Handbags’ Fall Collection consists of clutch bags that are designed with simple, clean lines and unique shapes. I would not have imagined clutches can come in more creative styles like these.
feNa’s designer, Kellyn Timmerman, is an architect, which probably explains her understanding for structure and detail. Hence, her collection looks stunning and
Naysayers be damned! Victoria Beckham is apparently emerging as a top designer for handbags.
When the former Spice Girl debuted her collection last Spring, not a lot of people believed her handbags would account for something. Lots of celebrities have tried their hand and designing bags and failed. But only a few months into this and Posh Spice is already making a big name for herself as a handbag designer.
This Two Tone Lizard and Leather Clutch is said to be such a big hit this season and one of the most coveted clutch bags from her collection.
Like her, this hand
I personally cannot do with a clutch bag. Because I carry plenty of stuff most of the time, a satchel would be my favorite and most functional style. But I’m thinking of reconsidering about clutches, when I saw how pretty these clutch bags are from iMoshion.
Take a look —
I can’t decide if Iove how these clutches are designed and presented. On one hand, it’s style is truly whimsical. It’s like carrying a colorful plate and the colors mimic jewel tones which makes it really nice. On the other hand, the translucent material appears as if its got oil in it, which makes it a lot less endearing. It looks glassy and plasticky, if that’s even possible. A bag lik
Long clutch bags dominated the recent Fall 2011 fashion runway show, so expect a lot of this slim, long, wallet-formed bags to be present at your favorite bag labels and stores. These long bags are perfect for using at night time, when cocktail parties usually happen and you just need that one simple bag to carry your stuff with.
But the styles and designs for these long bags have been dressed down a bit to be more fitting for daywear. Below are just some of what we’ve seen.
