New York Times Street Style: Clutches


Wha?!?!?! My picture is in The New York Times' Street Style section! My jaw is still on the floor!


Clutches were the focus of this week's installment of Street Style and this ASOS clutch was my
golden ticket. If you haven't guessed it by now,  I am a gigantic clutch person. I mean that literally. I like humongous clutches. I just can't leave the house without preparing for all sorts of natural and Jillian-made disasters. So, this means that my clutches are always filled to the brim with snacks, band-aids, flats, lip gloss,  memo pads, scarfs, and any and all random electronic devices of the moment. Because of this, I really can't function with a teeny tiny clutch.

Smaller clutches are definitely easier to carry, but for me, a larger clutch holds my items more securely and lessens the chance that I'll forget to bring something pivotal. This is why I love ASOS's envelope clutch. While it's big enough to fit all of my crapit's still such a looker. Plus it has a handy dandy interior pocket which makes it easy to store and retrieve important items like my credit cards and ID. So which side do you fall on? Are large clutches king? OR, do smaller clutches win?


Here's a closer look at my ASOS clutch.



Here are a bunch of similar envelope clutches from ASOS, in a variety of spring ready colors!


 Can you believe these are only $35.81? Find them here

 Or, if you're looking to splurge, take a look at these beauties!




These Emily Cho oversized folded clutches retail for $605. Find them here

Happy Shopping Lovelies!!!
