The new Mansur Gavriel Volume Clutch is a hot, new, handheld handbag style from iconic handbag design team Mansur Gavriel. This vintage inspired, frame clutch was introduced for the first time in the spring 2016 season during fashion week, and it is already showing signs of “hotness.” Love it!

The Volume Clutch by Mansur Gavriel offers a classic, vintage vibe which is simple and reminiscent of times past. When one first lays eyes upon Mansur Gavriel’s Volume Clutch, memories start to emerge of seeing one’s Grandmother carrying a similar clutch, and looking elegant, refined, and beautiful.

This modern version of the classic frame clutch offers an interior pocket, which is perfect for modern items such as an iPhone, or keyless entry device for our vehicles. The roomy interior provides plenty of space for everything we carry around in modern day; without sacrificing that vintage, timeless appeal which is making this clutch so highly sought-after.

The Mansur Gavriel Volume Clutch is easy to carry and lightweight. The suede is strong, and can handle a heavy load. Like other handbags by Mansur Gavriel, the Volume Clutch is extremely well-made. The stitching and materials will withstand a lifetime of use; and perhaps someday we will be the elegant Grandmother carrying our beautiful Volume Clutches by Mansur Gavriel.

I absolutely adore my Mansur Gavriel Volume Clutch. I chose the navy blue color because navy is such a great alternative to black. Navy is also one of my favorite colors to wear. It works well during all four seasons, and blends easily with so many color palettes. I am looking forward to wearing my Volume Clutch by Mansur Gavriel season after season.

The Mansur Gavriel Volume Clutch plays well with any type of attire. I love how it makes a casual, denim and tee-shirt outfit look elegant and polished. I also love how it can be paired with dressier attire for the theater, or for a dinner event. Since the clutch is roomy, I can easily carry everything I need for a night out on town inside the handbag. Love!

This is definitely a handbag to get your hands on now. If you have been looking for a versatile clutch which works for daytime, and evening occasions, this is the clutch! It offers clean lines, a roomy interior, comfortable weight for carrying, and it is beautiful. The Mansur Gavriel Volume Clutch is the perfect investment purchase for right now, and to cherish for a lifetime.

Mansur Gavriel’s Volume Clutch is currently in stock! Of course, like other handbags by Mansur Gavriel, the clutch is selling quickly, and will soon sell out. Then, the clutch will be waitlist only. If you are eyeing this fabulous clutch, act quickly!

You can find the Mansur Gavriel Volume Clutch online here, here and here.

If the color you want is sold out, you can watch this site, this site, this site, and this site for their pre-orders to pop up for the following season.

I hope you love your clutch as much as I do! I rate the Mansur Gavriel Volume Clutch five out of five stars!

Rebecca Minkoff Finn shoulder bag in black

The Rebecca Minkoff Finn shoulder bag, which converts to a clutch, is a fun way to rock the fringe trend. Rebecca Minkoff first launched the fringe, Finn handbag back in 2014, and since then, she has released it every season in both classic hues, and seasonal shades.

Rebecca Minkoff is known for creating high quality, sturdy handbags which are high on style, and low in price. The Finn has lived up to Rebecca Minkoff’s reputation, and delivers on both runway style, and durability. Love that!

I have owned my Rebecca Minkoff Finn clutch in black since 2014, and I still wear it often. It has been caught in the rain, brought to the gym, thrown around by my kids, and been through the daily grind of life. On this day in 2016, my Rebecca Minkoff Finn handbag still looks brand new! Now THAT is fabulous 😉

The playful fringe on the Finn clutch is in two rows, giving the bag a full fringe look and feel. The strap is detachable, allowing the bag to be worn as a clutch, shoulder bag, or cross body bag. I love having the option to wear it different ways. This also makes Rebecca Minkoff’s Finn bag great for travel!

There is a strong zipper closure on the bag which has held up to many zips, and unzips, over the years. This is a testament to the high quality construction of the bag.

The interior of the Rebecca Minkoff Finn handbag has a playful pattern on a thick, cotton twill lining. There is one pocket which is great for holding business cards, folded cash, credit cards, or a lipstick. I can fit my wallet, iPhone, lipstick, keys, and other small items inside the bag. It holds quite a bit for it’s little size!

The fringe trend, which has been part of the Western trend, boho-chic trend, and 70’s trend, is showing no sign of slowing down in the next few seasons. A cute little handbag such as the Finn, is a great way to rock this trend. It can be worn with casual attire, or as a clutch with a dressy ensemble for a night out on the the town. Fabulous!

The Rebecca Minkoff Finn clutch can be found online here, here, and here. It is priced at under $200, making it a great bag for yourself, or to give as gift! Love!

Fendi DotCom satchel review

The Fendi DotCom satchel is one of the hottest new handbags of 2016. Fendi is already known for designing beautiful, high quality, timeless handbags, so when they launched the Fendi DotCom, I knew it would be a winner!

The initial launch of the Fendi DotCom satchel offers the handbag in a creamy milk hue, classic black, cool sky blue, bark, red, and dove grey. There are also versions with whip-stitching!. Although the black with cobalt clutch insert was calling my name,  I already have a couple of black satchels, so I decided to go for the dove grey since I do not own a satchel in this neutral hue. I am so glad I went with this color! The dove grey will be a beautiful light color for the spring and summer months; plus it is a color which transcends season. Love!

The Fendi DotCom satchel is made from smooth leather with a suede interior. The leather can scratch, which I already found out, but the scratch blends into the leather and cannot be easily seen without really looking hard. I have a feeling over time, the leather will soften a bit and offer a beautiful patina. I am looking forward to it aging a bit.

I love the versatility of the Fendi DotCom satchel. It has two large compartments with two equal interior pockets which each fit an iPhone perfectly. The interior clutch is offered in a contrasting color, mine is poppy. The clutch is great for storing small items such as keys or lipstick. It can also be removed and worn as a clutch. This makes the Fendi DotCom a great day into evening bag. You can go from work to dinner just by removing the clutch and carrying it in lieu of the satchel. Love that!

There are two ways to carry the Fendi DotCom satchel. There is a classic lady bag satchel top handle which can be worn over the forearm, or carried by hand. The Fendi DotCom satchel also offers a detachable shoulder strap which allows the bag to hang at the hip. The straps are on the thick side; making them extremely comfortable. I am in love!

The interior is roomy enough to carry file folders for work, an iPad, a book, and I can detach the lens from my DSLR camera and place both parts in the bag. It is great! This is a perfect satchel for work if you do not have to carry too many things with you. It has a beautiful formal, structured look which looks fabulous with office attire, dressy attire, daytime fundraiser ensembles, and a fabulous lunch outfit. This can easily be a workhorse handbag.

The Fendi DotCom satchel is currently part of Fendi’s resort 2016 collection, but it will be continuing for many seasons to come since it is already proving to be popular. The handbag is selling out fast!

If you want to get your hands on one of the first Fendi DotCom satchels, you can find it online here, here, here, and here.
