Mansur Gavriel Cloud clutch review

Ah! I finally caved and bought the Mansur Gavriel Cloud clutch! This beautiful clutch is priced well under $1000, and has an IT factor to it. Love that!

The Mansur Gavriek Cloud clutch is starting to sell quickly; reminding us all of the days when we couldn’t get our hands on their famous bucket bag to save our lives. In order to snag the Cloud clutch in black with flamma interior, which I feel like is an iconic color combo for a Mansur Gavriel bag, I went on a wait list. It took two months to receive my new clutch, and it was worth the wait.

This soft and buttery leather clutch is lightweight, and fits a ton of items! My camera fits inside too, but I used it to take these pictures so you will have to imagine it inside the bag. Even with the camera inside, there is sill room for more items; such as a baggie of goldfish crackers for the kids. This makes the Cloud clutch by Mansur Gavriel a great daytime bag; as long as you don’t mind carrying it around.

The Mansur Gavriel Cloud can be hand-held, or tucked underneath your arm. It is comfortable to carry since it is a lightweight bag and the structure is ultra-soft. It would even work as an evening bag since a pair of flats could fit inside. (sometimes a girl needs a plan B when it comes to walking in heels-just sayin’)

Below you can see what I carry in my clutch, and you can also see the extra room for more items. The narrow blue case is a sunglasses case.

This is a really fun bag for attending an event, carrying out to lunch with the girls, or anytime you want to look on trend, and in-the-know 😉 It comes in several seasonal colors, but my favorite is classic black with flamma interior. I’m looking forward to wearing this bag often during the spring and summer seasons; as well as into fall.

Are you loving this spring weather as much as I am? It’s so much fun to bring out my spring 2020 shoes! Since temperatures are in the 60’s and 70’s, it is time to ditch the booties, but not quite time to switch to sandals. For the spring season, I am keeping my feet covered, and keeping socks to a minimum.

Let’s talk about spring 2020 shoe trends! Sneakers are hot! I know, it sounds like you’ve heard it before, but spring’s sneaker game for spring 2020 is a little bit different than the street sneakers we saw in recent seasons. For spring 2020, sneakers are clean and white. Look for small metallic touches such as a stripe or small logo. Loud sneakers are over, clean white sneakers are in.

I am a huge espadrille fan. They are inherently soft, and easy to walk in. The two-tone wedges offer a dressy look for days when I want to up my game. One more casual days, my trusted and true ivory wedges are ideal. These multi-color espadrilles offer a small wedge so they can double as flats. They are all comfortable and soft. Love that!

Sometimes we need to dress up! Spring 2020 is all about the square toe, so instead of reaching for a classic pair of pumps from my closet, I splurged on a new and trendy pair for 2020. Since these slingbacks are black, they should carry me from spring to summer to fall. If you are looking for new pumps this season, make sure the toes are square! You’ll love them, there is more room at the top for your toes!

What are your favorite shoe trends this spring 2020 season? Are you excited for clean and white sneakers? Is the square toe a trend you can get behind?
