As an inspiring fashion writer in my teens, I remember thinking of women holding clutch bags as the pinnacle of chicness. Tucked under one’s arm, maybe with a coat hanging off one’s shoulders, probably holding a glass of prosecco. To me, there was nothing cooler. I pictured myself embodying the likes of Carrie Bradshaw when I would tuck one under my arm for a school party. Now, here I am a decade later and they’ve come back, and I’m going to make the most of it.
It’s not just The Pouch (with its investment-level price point) that we’re loving when it comes to clutch bags, either. There are so many to love—from quilted versions through to second-hand treasures. Keep scrolling to discover how the fashion set have been styling their clutch bags recently and shop my edit of the best ones—from designer to high street to vintage.
