I’m liking the Rock & Republic Newport Clutch ($329) that Victoria Justice recently sported as a Frugal alternative to one from Hermes or Dior. Without looking like an actual knock-off, it combines the rocker-chic of a Dior bag thanks to the perforated leather with the classic shape and simple hardware touches from a more traditional brand like Hermes (I could only find the red version of the Rock & Republic clutch online, but it also comes in black like the one Justice opted for, though incidentally the actress/model could have used a clutch with some color to break-up her monochromatic look). For $329 I think this is a great buy!
What do you think about this Rock & Republic piece as a frugal alternative to a four-figure designer clutch?
