Spring is here and Summer will be here sooner than we know it. In the fashion world we are currently surrounded by color and I love it. Which is odd to hear me say because for a few years I was into the black and white trend. I literally only bought and wore clothes that were black and white all year long. I wasn’t morbid I just liked all my dresses, skirts and shirts to be black and white. For some strange reason, when 2013 came I felt the need to branch out and get back to bringing some color in my life. Right now I’m all into bright and pastel colors and I can’t get enough of them. When I saw the Prada Degrade Sequin Paillettes Pouch I smiled.

I know we have seen the Alexander McQueen “Britannia” Crystal Skull Clutch before. We are all use to seeing it in the colors that represent the UK, red, white and blue. However, the clutch is so beautiful and fun that it’s great to see it released in other colors. I have to admit orange is one of my least favorite colors but I absolutely love it on this clutch. This clutch looks even cuter now and more perfect for the Spring and Summer. My Father’s family is English so I’m accustomed to seeing the British flag everywhere. However, I myself was born in the United States so for me it’s nice to see this beautiful clutch in a different color. It would be kind of odd for me to carry around a clutch of the Union Flag in the appropriate colors when I’m not from the UK but I don’t see a problem carrying around an orange one! It kind of states I’m proud to have English blood in me but I respect I’m not from there so I won’t carry around the actual colors.

This is one of those bags that will stop you in your tracks! A beautiful combination of leather & satin and crystals & studs – classic elegance meets rocker chic.

The body of this bag is dressed in a soft shade of powder-pink leather and muted grey silk satin front panel and accessorized with hand-embellished rows of shimmering crystals set in an antique silver finish and trimmed with the signature ‘Rockstud’ soft gold pyramid studs. So gorgeous.

I have developed a fondness for Charlotte Olympia lately. Why? Well, that is a very good question. But it’s also a difficult one to answer. To be honest, I’m not really sure what the allure is. For some reason, I just feel drawn to these unusual pieces. Perhaps it’s simply because I like to see something new. Let’s face it, Charlotte Olympia’s designs are not something you see every day. Plus I’m excited because this latest season was inspired by the city of love — Paris! However, these pieces aren’t inspired by what I would call your typical Paris icons. Take a look at the Charlotte Olympia Perfume Perspex Clutch and you will see what I mean.

When I first saw this clutch the first thing that blurted out of my mouth was, “ohhh this looks like a Croissant.” Not to be mean of course, that’s what this clutch looks like to me. Then I read the description and saw that this bag was in fact made to replicate this famous French crescent-shaped breakfast puff pastry, in gold form. I personally think this clutch is delicious gorgeous and worth taking a double glance.

I’m a firm believer in that every girl should own a clutch in their closet. Whether you’re going out for brunch, after work drinks with friends or out on Date Night, a classic clutch is your best accessory.

One clutch I have particularly become drawn to is this Aquatalia by Marvin K ‘Fad’ clutch, so when I was asked to review and give my honest opinion I was extremely excited.

Made in Italy and offered in the contemporary handbag price range, the craftsmanship of this clutch is exquisite. High impact ultra-glossy shades of navy and beige panels color-blocked with a hint of exotic textured emerald green come together on this clutch.

Besides the beautiful detailing of this clutch, the features are worth taking note of. What’s great about this bag is that it comes with a removable shoulder strap, for those days you feel like going hands-free. When not in use leave it tucked away inside and if you change your mind 30 minutes into the date, pop it out, clip it on and whala, a shoulder bag. The size is also very generous. Spacious enough for all your daily essentials this clutch measures in at 10″ width x 5″ height x 1.5″ depth, which is a perfect fit for a wallet, mini touch-up cosmetic pouch, cellphone.

Don’t you just love Gucci’s latest spring/summer 2013 evening accessories? This ultra sheer clutch was made for summer evening out on the town. The soft colored perspex frame is just the right size for the bare essentials, that you don’t mind having put on display. Measurements 8″W width x 4.7″ height x 2″ depth. What I love about the perplex design is that it’s not just a plain clear box, the design crafted in gem stone pattern.

What do you guys think of Gucci’s latest transparent clutch? Is it true that less is more?

I am ready for spring’s delicate hues though it seems like some fashion moguls are having a difficult time leaving behind winter’s black. Some newly released items arrive rockin’ in heavy-handed tints, such as the Skunk Paillettes Sequin Wristlet. For the record I’m not name-calling, Marc Jacobs observably named this oversized glimmery clutch after the easily identifiable mammal and coveted it into a finer thing. I’d have to say that everything about this clutch is quite attractive.

This adorable little clutch is the perfect accessory to finish off your sweet punk summer look! I love the light blue combined with the gold hardware. It’s a lovely color combination that would look beautiful from spring to summer.

The Empire State is a light blue slouchy style clutch topped off with polished gold pointy stud cones. One thing I was taken a little back by when reading the description is that this clutch is not made of leather – it’s made of denim. I wouldn’t say I’m the biggest fan of the fabric look. I’ve never owned a denim purse in my life (although a huge of the Louis Vuitton Denim Collection) I just don’t think this is something I would ever wear.  Without a doubt, if this was made with leather (or even faux) I would have to get one, because honestly wouldn’t this clutch look 100x’s more amazing if it was made out of some lux material?
