The Fits-More-Than-a-Mint Clutch
You need something that goes with your dark jeans and heels on a Saturday night and is suitable for a black-tie wedding. A bag in a neutral metallic colour, such as silver, gold or pewter, will add subtle sparkle. Make sure your bag has a wrist strap so that you can avoid tucking it under your arm and snagging it on fabrics, like silk or chiffon. A brightly coloured clutch can be just as versatile and looks less formal than fabric bags for daytime events.
