| Traveler's clutch: Pepper red, $115, Fleabags image via Fleabags SS12 Lookbook |
A few short months ago I really wanted a document folder clutch. I thought of it more as a document folder size than an ipad case; the kind an old man carries his documents in. I don't know where I got this "need" from, I'm not sure who inspired it. I do know that regardless of the originality of my want the "over-sized clutch" has become a "fashion staple".
In case you were wondering (and I'm pretty sure you weren't) I put all these terms in quotations because I think they are somewhat tacky and very much over-used. They are meant to appeal to and be coveted by a mass market. This sometimes bothers me a lot, sometimes not so much.
In this case the intense trendiness of the "over-sized clutch" bothered me a lot. In fact it turned me off completely and I no longer wanted one at all. Until now...
This bag (regardless of technical name) is great. It is hand made from vintage/recycled leather and this all happens, somewhat locally, in New York. And I can Only speak for myself. but there is something kind of rad about knowing exactly who made your bag! (by seeing their picture on the site of course.)
