When I think party, I think Luisa via Roma. The Florence-based site throws the best biannual party, so it’s only logical they carry the most amazing evening clutches (and everything else, for that matter) for the party season. If my husband happens to be reading this, any of these best party clutches would make for an ideal Christmas gift!
1. Balmain Gold Embroidered Leather and Suede Clutch: This crosshatched concoction is a total piece of art. The weave of gold leather is made for a queen, back when queens were no-nonsense hedonists. On Luisa via Roma for $3,731.
2. Saint Laurent Lutetia Micro-Studs Leather Clutch: Studs to infinity and beyond on lipstick-red leather exudes the new guard of Saint Laurent’s rocker-chick cool (without veering towards grunge). On Luisa via Roma for $1,250.
3. Lanvin Printed Ponyskin Zipped Clutch: Leopard print and wristlet convenience: this is a combination made in heaven. The uncluttered pouch style is so chic and in every editor’s hands. On Luisa via Roma for $1,385.
4. Jimmy Choo Charlize Shimmer Suede Envelope Clutch: This shot of modern glamour brings new meaning to the term “envelope clutch.” That slick metal flap is everything. On Luisa via Roma for $1,250.
