Trend Alert: Glorious Gray Clutches

FabSugar — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 14:30:22 -0800

Yes, Kate Beckinsale and hubby Len Wiseman are a handsome couple, but so are the star and her glorious gray clutch. This neutral hue gives off a casual yet refined vibe without taking the spotlight away from an outfit. I love wearing my gray clutch with bright ensembles for extra contrast, but it also works with lighter tones. Just look at Kate for inspiration: her clutch plays the perfect supporting role to her silver J.Mendel dress - simply dazzling.

FabSugar — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 13:33:22 -0700

Clooneywoman posted this Celine Watch Me Dance Clutch ($840, originally $1,200) in the Love It or Hate It? group, and she wants to know: do you love it or hate it? She points out that it feeds into Fall's neo-folk mood, but I'm not so sure about the mix of colors. I do love the name though! What do you all think?

The Bag to Have: Alexander McQueen Skull Zipper Clutch

FabSugar — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 05:50:22 -0700

OK, let's all take a moment and soak in Claudia's fashion party prowess at London Fashion Week. Her green leopard print minidress is beyond scintillating and so is her Alexander McQueen Skull Zipper Clutch ($495). Every fashionphile knows that accessories are key to completing an outfit. This McQueen clutch is rad for many reasons. The supple leather and sophisticated shape are timeless features, but it's really the diminutive skill pendant that tickles my - and Claudia's – fancy.

2009 Primetime Emmy Awards: The Decadent Details

FabSugar — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 16:20:11 -0700

We've witnessed the gowns and we know the winners, so now let's take a closer look at the decadent details. Millions of dollars of jewelry are lent to the Emmys red carpet. As well, clutches are a fun way to elevate a gown. We even spotted a couple Faboo shoes last night, thanks to some higher cocktail hemlines. Jennifer Carpenter's two-tone Martin Katz diamond bracelets stopped me in my clicks - and that black diamond ring (worth $49,000) - rocks my world. Continue on to explore the decadent details.

eBay Find of the Week

FabSugar — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 02:15:22 -0700

All these extravagant red carpet affairs have me dreaming about fancy accessories. Wouldn't this Vintage Black Mesh Chain Purse look amazing on the arm of vintage-loving Zooey Deschanel or Rachel Bilson? I like that it's antique and modern at the same time. You can wear it as a shoulder bag, a clutch, or crossbody - it looks good all ways.

The current bidding price is $9.95 and the auction ends on Tuesday, Sept. 22. Good luck and happy bidding!

Judith Leiber Parrot Clutch: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 07:50:22 -0700

My little brother used to own a parrot. It was colorful and made a lot of noise, kinda annoying. If I were to get a bird, it would be this Judith Leiber Parrot Clutch, ($5,695). OK, it isn't a live bird, but the bright hues are amazing and I love the sparkly crystal embellishments. If money weren't an issue, would you don this kitschy clutch?

SANG A Flash Clutch: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 03:50:22 -0700

Zoom! Zip! I don't know much about superheroes, but I do know that if Flash had a sister - Flashista? - she would carry this SANG A Flash Clutch ($675). It's so slick, strong, and ravishing red. Forget the price, money is no object to the super ones.

The Look For Less: Giuseppe Zanotti Stud Clutch

FabSugar — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 10:00:22 -0700

Here's what I love about clutches with studs: Studs are the easiest way to look tough, but since the surface area of a clutch is small, there's no overkill. Make sense? I would carry this Giuseppe Zanotti Stud Clutch ($745) but for that price? No thanks!

Now this Express Stud Foldover Clutch ($50) is more like it. In fact, I think the combination of big and small studs is more interesting. It's just bold enough without being in-your-face. What a stud.
