CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN
Loubitwist crystal-embellished leather clutch
If accessories were invited to the Met Gala, the Loubitwist would strut straight to the red carpet (no RSVP needed). Drenched in shimmering crystals that catch light like a disco ball on a caffeine high, this clutch doesn’t just attend the party—it is the party.
Crafted in that unmistakable Loubi Red leather, it’s not just a bag; it’s a statement piece with a PhD in stealing the show. The sculptural design is like a modern art installation you can carry, and let’s be honest, who doesn’t want a little wearable art in their life?
Inside, it’s compact but mighty. There’s just enough room for your phone (to text your group chat about how good you look), your cardholder (because drinks aren’t free, darling), and your lipstick (to keep that pout party-ready). Need to free up your hands for dancing or dramatic air-kisses? Pop on the detachable chain strap, and you’re good to twirl. Bottom line? The Loubitwist is your sparkling wingwoman, your red-carpet-ready bestie, and your license to shine brighter than anyone else in the room.
SELF-PORTRAIT
Crystal-embellished acrylic clutch
Ladies, if Clutches had a “most likely to steal the show” award, this one would win. We’re talking about the Self-Portrait Crystal-Embellished Acrylic Clutch. It’s the Regina George of evening bags: everyone wants it, and you’ll feel unstoppable carrying it.
Let’s start with its pearlescent acrylic shell. It’s like moonlight in handbag form, catching the light in all the right ways and whispering, “Yes, I’m luxurious, thanks for noticing.” But the real star? That dripping crystal bow. It’s not just a bow—it’s drama, it’s attitude, it’s Beyoncé hitting that note at the Grammys. The “drip” effect is so extra, and we’re here for it.
It comes with a detachable shoulder strap, so you can go hands-free when you’re holding a champagne flute and working the room. Or ditch the strap and let it steal the spotlight as a hand-held stunner—it’s a diva like that. Oh, and the magnetic fastening? It’s basically saying, “Your secrets are safe with me.” And by secrets, we mean snacks, because who doesn’t need an emergency chocolate stash?
CLIO PEPPIATT
Nightshade bead-embellished velvet tote
Meet the handbag that’s part drama queen, part heartbreaker, and 100% fabulous. Clio Peppiatt’s Nightshade tote is a moody little masterpiece with a flair for the dramatic. Crafted from lush black velvet in a heart shape (aww), this mini marvel is dripping in intrigue. The beadwork? Pure artistry, transforming it into a wilting flower straight out of a gothic fairy tale. And those sparkling handles? Oh, darling—they’re the “stems,” because why should flowers have all the fun?
Sure, it’s mini, but it’s mighty in purpose. It holds just the right amount of magic to keep your night going. Pair it with a velvet gown for a candlelit dinner, or let it be the rebellious pop of elegance against your leather jacket and combat boots. Whatever you choose, the Nightshade tote guarantees you’ll look like the protagonist in a novel no one can put down.
Because sometimes, carrying your heart on your sleeve just isn’t enough—you’ve got to carry it in your hand, with beads, velvet, and unapologetic flair.
