Save, Steal Or Splurge – A Classic Black Clutch

Although it’s easy to make a habit of shopping based on ‘what’s in’, this isn’t always a good idea. Buying according to trends can incur debts pretty quickly and just because a piece is fashion forward doesn’t mean it will suit all body shapes. Investment pieces in contrast, actually stand the test of time. Each week we aim to introduce a new piece for your wardrobe and provide three options from where to buy, catering for all budgets. Save - €13 at Dorothy Perkins This is a serious bargain for an accessory that will be used time and time again. Clutches are fantastic as they add a polished touch to any ensemble. Whether you team this with a simple vest and jeans, use it to finish off your Friday night look, or team it with evening wear, you will most certainly find multiple uses for it. Steal - €60 at River Island This clutch looks luxurious yet it's still affordable. For a high fashion look at a reasonable price, you won't find better than this one. We love it and the size is bigger than a regular clutch so you can fit all your essential items with comfort. Yay. Splurge - €475 at BT2 Sophie Hulme bags make us come over all quivery and excited, and no, we're not exaggerating. Buttery soft leather, gold plated detail and best of all, it will make over any outfit. Even if your outfit is simple, chic accessories speak for themselves and we really can't resist investing in spends of the bag variety.
