Attending the Maui Film Festival, Lupita Nyong’o reminded us once again why she’s an emerging style icon. Looking perfectly summery, she wore a colorblocked Calvin Klein Collection dress; in a palette of cool lagoon blues and refreshing neon citrus, she exudes island ease. But it’s not the cocktail dress, nor her strappy Christian Louboutin sandals, that makes this look a home run.
Carrying Jill Haber’s Ethan clutch, Lupita is as flawless as ever. This woman is the current epitome of chic, so of course she would love Jill Haber, my favorite new designer. Not only does the pale aqua hue of this stingray clutch blend perfectly with the dress and manicure, it has enough details of its own to make it stand out. Like an amazingly cool wooden gusset: Haber’s signature lends an organic feel to a beautifully structured day-to-night clutch. And it punctuates an outfit flawlessly, whether you’re hitting the tropical festival circuit or not. The Ethan clutch is available at Jill Haber in python in a variety of colors for $850-$950.
Steal the Look: Take a cue from Lupita and pair your Jill Haber bag with a colorblocked frock, like Peter Pilotto’s geometric take (for $1,232.50, from $2,465) or Marc by Marc Jacobs’ swingy mini (for $350, from $500). Both available on NET-A-PORTER.

Such a gorgeous look! I love the way the colors pop on her skin and of course I love her clutch. I’m still searching for the perfect one.
We talked about carrying less when going out on our blog. My blog partner has a weakness for Alexander Wang.
