Save, Spend, Splurge: Non-Traditional new Year’s Eve Clutches
With Christmas fast approaching and the opportunity to shop for gifts drawing to a close, lots of online sellers are beginning to refocus themselves for new Year’s Eve preparations. Traditionally, year-end festivities are a time for glitzy dresses and disco-ball-inspired accessories, and if you’re wanting to bedazzle yourself head-to-toe in bling, then mazel tov – this is exactly the occasion to indulge your inner magpie. If, like me, you consider glitter and rhinestones to be a part of your everyday life already and want to look a little different than the crowd on new Year’s Eve, we’ve got a few suggestions. (We’re just full of ideas these days.)
Just like short, tight and sequined is a predictable NYE choice, so is small, boxy and silver or gold. To combat predictability, we’ve selected three clutches at three very different price points that still give you the glitzy evening look without screaming “New Year’s Eve.” check ’em out below and let us know what you plan on carrying for your year-end celebrations!
Save:
ASOS Feather Clutch
$44 through ASOS.com
A new Year’s Eve look requires texture, and feathers are a terrific alternative to sequins or rhinestones.
Spend:
Lauren Merkin Zoe Pyramid Minaudiere
$295 through Nordstrom
You can still carry a shiny box grasp on NYE and look original – just choose something color-shifting and modern like this terrific, reasonably priced piece.
Splurge:
Alexander McQueen metal flowers Skull Clutch
$3,425 through Neiman Marcus
If you want to go balls-to-the-wall, so to speak, this grasp is the best way to go. The texture of this thing is absolutely out-of-this-world, and because the flowers are made of metal, it’s like a very smart take on your average sequin-dotted box clutch.
