I love the new wave of easy, casual clutches made with ordinary life in mind. Who wants to fuss when you and just grab and go? Alexander Wang always designs for the modern cosmopolitan girl, and the Dumbo is a prime example of his live-and-let-live mentality.
A thick-ish zip that curves down the side for rapid access; pebbled leather is one of the most carefree of textures; a chunky, welcoming handle that’s ideal for a fast grab you don’t need to think about: all signs point to a bag that helps you get up and go, especially on days when your load is minimal and your time is scarce. And the acid-yellow tone? Totally spot-on. At Opening Ceremony for $450.
Pair with: Go for a tropical punch of casual chic with a sneaker that doubles as an espadrille. Prada’s topsider, in bubblegum-pink suede, has rope trim and a positive attitude. At Barneys New York for $420.
