From what I’ve seen, Judith Leiber clutches will usually do between two and six thousand dollars worth of damage. That’s a lot of scratch for a little sparkly clutch, but they’re extremely precise and often quite unique, so a lot of women love them. But what if you don’t have the type of money to spend on an evening bag you probably won’t use often, but you still want a little bit of glitter in your life? Then you buy the Anya Hindmarch Marano Glitter Clutch.

Sure, it’s not Swarovski-covered, but that comes at a price that not everyone is interested in paying. Instead, this little bag is covered in multicolor glitter that reminds me of the holiday cards we used to make out of construction paper, glue, and sequins during this time of year in elementary school. My only bit of trepidation is that I sincerely hope that this clutch is glazed. Glitter is like the herpes of the accessory world – once it gets on your skin, you’re never going to get rid of it.

But as long as the sparkle stays in place, I think this is a colorful, fun alternative to a more serious holiday clutch. And although I was a bit dubious of the multicolor glitter at first, the more I think about it, the more it seems like a good idea. Not only is it a lot younger-looking than it would be if the materials were simply silver or gold, but it could probably be coordinated with just as many things. Buy through Net-a-Porter for $425.

Well, this is no common beach bag. The attention to detail is what makes the price; the straw is impeccably woven (no fraying here!), and the woven patent leather meshes perfectly with the straw. But still, almost $700! Perhaps this bag is just one for those jetting off to private islands, provided that they don’t plunk this creation in the sand, no matter how white. Buy through Shopbop for $645.

Isn’t it funny how things from your childhood are ingrained in your memory? When I came across the Anya Hindmarch Viola Wicker Clutch, I instantly remembered a chair with a wicker base my parents had in their house. When Megs and I were young, we would sit there and poke our fingers through the wicker holes. For whatever reason, that seemed to keep us entertained for quite some time. However, I am not sure this clutch would keep me entertained for very long. I do like the casual feel of the clutch, but I am not sure I am a fan of much else. Over time, I worry that the wicker might start to fray and the last thing I want is to be carrying a handbag that could potentially snag my skin. Again, I can definitely see someone sporting this in the spring or summer, but I think it would be one of those handbags you use a few times and then it makes its way into the depths of your closet. Buy through Net-a-Porter for $355.

Now, as wallets do, they get old, worn out and need to be replaced. The problem for my mom is that she can rarely find something cute to stand-in for a wallet. Finally, I think I may have found an answer! Don’t be fooled though, this pouch isn’t just suitable for a mom, it’s really suitable for anyone who wants to add a little flare to what they might carry in their handbag. It is a double-compartment flat pouch in metallic leather (leather comes in several different colors) and measures in at 5″H x 7.5″L. I love the detail added to the edges, zip closures and a favorite accent of mine – suede lining. And the great thing, this pouch could be really useful for just about anyone. You don’t need to replace your wallet, but hey, you never know, you might! Buy through Shop Bop for $250.
