Thomas Wylde Day of the Dead Clutch

BrS — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 23:52:42 +0000

Paula Thomas is at it again, bringing us yet another Thomas Wylde clutch with a skull theme. However, this time around she has put a little bit of a spin on the skull theme with the new Thomas Wylde Day of the Dead Clutch. This lovely clutch, named for the Mexican (and Latino) holiday that is celebrated by many people all over the world, is covered with tiny skull-shaped studs. This fold-over style clutch is composed of distressed black leather, something Thomas Wylde handbags are known for. What I find most interesting about this clutch, however, is the double chain strap. The two straps are separate from one another and completely removable. The straps are also of different lengths. So you can wear the clutch with two straps, one strap, or none at all.

When it comes to the Thomas Wylde Day of the Dead Clutch, I find myself having some mixed feelings. I love the simple, unstructured shape and the fold-over styling. I also like the tiny skull studs. But when I look at this clutch, I also think it could have been a little bit better. Instead of gold hardware, I would have liked to have seen this clutch with silver or gunmetal hardware. I’m not sure what it is, but for some reason, when I think of rocker-chic I think of black paired with silver or gunmetal hardware. But maybe that’s just a generation thing.

The Thomas Wylde Day of the Dead Clutch retails for $1,500. You can pick one up here at NET-A-PORTER.COM.

Thomas Wylde Henna Nailhead Stud Bag
Paula Thomas is at it again! This time around, however, her would be hit just might be a total miss. Introducing the Thomas Wylde Henna Nailhead Stud Bag. No skulls, no spiders, no spikes… heck, it’s not even black. This bag does have studs though! But the studs were used to create a dainty floral design. Hmm… this doesn’t really look like a Thomas Wylde handbag, does it? Personally, I’m having a hard time taking this all in. If I wanted to buy a Thomas Wylde bag, I would at the very least expect it to have skulls. I mean, isn’t that what Thomas Wylde is all about? I suppose this bag isn’t terrible, but it just isn’t what I would have expected from this designer. Plus the shape sort of reminds me of a hot dog in a sling. Sorry Paula, but flowers just aren’t your thing. How does everyone else feel?

The Thomas Wylde Henna Nailhead Stud Bag is available in Pumice. It measures 20″ x 12″ x 7″ and it retails for $3,900 (EEK! Now that IS scary!). It comes complete with a tassel zipper pull and Swarovski crystal accents.

Find it at eLUXURY.

Thomas Wylde Nomad Fringe Bag
Take a look at this odd bag by Thomas Wylde. The Nomad Fringe Bag is a perfect example of what you would call, a fashion disaster. Upon viewing it, my first thoughts were, what the heck is it? Maybe I shouldn’t judge too quickly since I positively know for a fact that I can’t pull this bag off, then again, its design is definitely not my cup of tea, either. Seriously, who likes that much fringe, or better yet, who would wear so much of it? Fringe was a thing from the past, I’d like to know who brought it back! …and did the brainiac of this design honestly think that embellishing the shoulder strap with large pointy studs would have bettered this bag? I speak for myself when I say this piece is horrid, and the $2,800 price tag is nowhere near convincing as well. What do you ladies think? Would any of you gals wear this bag? Or could you possibly imagine splurging so much on this piece? Thomas Wylde, you have some awesome leather bags out in the market, and I totally dig the rocker-chic feel. Unfortunately, the Fringe Bag just isn’t cool enough.

Love the fringe?

Thomas Wylde Reservation Bag
Did you hear the news? Paula Thomas, founder and head designer of the Thomas Wylde brand, has actually come out with a handbag that retails for less than $2K. Meet the Thomas Wylde Reservation Bag. True to it’s name, this bag is somewhat reserved (for a Thomas Wylde bag, that is). It offers the perfect balance between tough girl chic and way over-the-top gaudy. What would have otherwise been a basic black leather bag, has been given just enough of a kick with it’s gunmetal studs. Plus, hidden inside, is a cool spider-print lining. It’s no Skull Bag, but overall, I think it’s pretty nice for what it is. My only gripe is that silly-looking tassel on the front. I think I would be tempted to cut it off. Hmm… or would that make it look too plain?

The Thomas Wylde Reservation Bag measures 18.5″ x 13″ x 7″, which is typical of most Thomas Wylde styles (e.g. BIG). It features a flat shoulder strap with braided leather detailing and oversized buckle attachments on each end. The flap top closure secures with a magnet and the backside features a zippered pocket. The bag retails for $1,800 — fairly inexpensive by Thomas Wylde standards.
