Clutches

Whether it’s a formal occasion or just a night out, a clutch is an ideal way to not only keep your important belongings safe, but to make a fashion statement and tell people who you are too. From the practical to the decadent the clutches available here at Stylight will allow you to express yourself whilst complementing your look.

A clutch for everyone

From the cutting edge, avant garde stylings of Stella McCartney to the more traditional, ultra-glamorous look, there’s a clutch to suit every personality, whether you're an outgoing, impulsive party gal or a quiet wallflower. Whether you’re looking for the perfect accessory to augment your ensemble or just need somewhere to keep your mobile phone, the right clutch can bring a Plein Sud dress to life.

Customising your look

The beauty of accessorising is that it allows you to add a splash of your own unique individuality to your outfit, even if someone else is wearing the exact same Esprit dress or shoes! It’s these details that can make you stand out, and provide a great opportunity to put your own spin on a look.

Great practicality

Clutches aren’t just a fashion item though; they’re enormously useful in their own right for carrying around money, keys or mobile phones, particularly when you consider that most outfits don’t have much in the way of pockets. Many clutches have separate compartments for easy storage, so that even when you’re enjoying yourself you shouldn’t have a problem finding anything.

Clutches on Stylight

From dinner parties with high society to a night on the town, you can find the right clutch to go with everything. Team them up with a pair of Miss L Fire heels for a kicking evening look or choose a more subdued tone and match them up with sweet ankle boots from Maripé for everyday wear. No matter what your style, check out our range on offer here at Stylight to find your perfect clutch.

Give the clutch a hand! Which clutch for which style?

You see them on almost every red carpet: Clutches! But now, this adorable little handbag has become the star of everyday fashion, too! Small and square, classic or in XXL: Available in almost every shape and color, these miracle bags will complement any outfit. The general rule of thumb is: The dressier the outfit, the smaller the clutch. Larger clutches are a great way to turn heads as you go about your usual day.

BUT WHICH DESIGN IS BEST FOR WHICH OCCASION?

  • Clutches in a classic rectangular format are a fabulous way to bump up the style factor of any cocktail dress, while the mini-version complements your favorite little black dress just as well as that new floral dress you bought for the garden party next week. Larger styles lend business outfits a hint of elegance and are a great way to show off your personality in comparison to classic handbags.
  • Hand-strap clutches with a convenient strap for the finger, hand or arm are not only practical, but also give the wearer a totally unique look. These bags are all about experimentation, from playful fabric combinations to a studded rock ‘n’ roll look. Leather styles with studded straps are a perfect addition to your everyday look.
  • Box clutches are better for glamorous evening events and special occasions like weddings and anniversaries. Covering the entire spectrum from metallic and eye-catching statement elements to gold lining and extravagant glitter or sequins, these clutches are like jewelry you can hold in your hand!
  • Portfolio clutches can infuse your favorite office ensemble with an extra large dose of style, its sophistication leaving traditional briefcases looking old and outdated.
  • Men’s Clutch: Men appreciate clutches, too, since they allow them to have the essentials close at hand without requiring a boring briefcase. These designs tend to be more minimalistic, with flashy accents generally limited to unique zippers and metal clasps. Clutches with an exciting retro-look style are a better choice for nights and weekends.

“To clutch” literally means to “cling to something”. But what’s the most elegant way to do this? What to do when the buffet is calling or there’s no good place to put your favorite accessory during a candlelight dinner? Easy – clutches don’t lose an ounce of style when held tightly between your elbow and waist. And if there’s no room on the table, simply stow it between your back and the back of the chair; not only is this a safe place to keep it, but it also helps improve your posture! You see? A clutch really can do it all.
