Already got your perfect party dress sorted? Well now’s the time to think about accessories, and you’ll be in need of the ever-elusive, all important evening clutch.
The great thing about the festive season is it allows you to go all out with bells and whistles, meaning no piece of arm candy can be too OTT. Luckily, there are so many options this year, from small silk numbers in glam jewel tones to faux fur, sequins and chic gold detailing.
Embellishments are a party staple, so opting for a going-out approved sequin clutch that looks like it’s been transported from the ‘60s will earn you serious style points, while you can’t go wrong with luxe metallics. Meanwhile, a purse dripping in crystal will act as the perfect adornment to transform any old outfit into ultimate party attire.
Generous enough to accommodate all your things but small enough not to weigh you down, invest in the right evening bag and it will last you many occasions to come.
