Seriously, as if I need another brand to lust after. Ralph Lauren has created a monster with their collection of to-die-for bags! I fell in love with this high-impact clutch when I saw it during Fashion Week and my feelings are just as strong months later. The engraved Art Deco-inspired clasp really does it on lush, minimal suede. In royal purple, it’s just amazing. There’s something about the purple clutch – grown-up yet fun, it’s the ideal color to brighten any neutral. (I have a favorite VBH that gets a lot more time in the limelight than you would think.) One focal point, a shot of powerful silver hardware, is really all you need. Put it on an untamed color in touchable suede (with black satin lining and an interior mirror), and this bag rules. On Net-a-Porter for $1,995.
Antonio Berardi Draped Silk Chiffon Dress
Pair with: This bag is so gorgeously sleek, you wouldn’t want to clutter it up with anything too ornate. Antonio Berardi’s draped mini-dress is simply layers of lovely taupe silk-chiffon. On Net-a-Porter for $507 (from $1,690).
