An Essential Accompaniment Published on Tuesday 29th May 2007
Every girl needs a beaded clutch in her wardrobe - fact. They’re an essential accompaniment to a delicate outfit for a summer party, a wedding or just an evening out with friends and they look far more classy than lugging a bulky bag over your shoulder. (Just make sure you don’t overdo it on the champagne front and forget where you left it!)
To find the perfect clutch, look no further than US designer Moyna Singh of Moyna Bags. Singh ships to anywhere in the world and her designs are stocked in Libertys and Whistles. All bags are hand made in India – with all glass beads and sequins individually selected to compliment the silk of the bag.
I recently read about her in American Vogue and went on her website (www.moynabags.com ) to have a look.
My personal favourite is her natural coloured beaded clutch (and I rather like it in blue too) – a pale beige satin with hand sewn on silver and cream sequins in a unique and chic pattern (style mi3651). For $189 (£95 thanks to the current exchange rate which makes shopping in the US great value at present) it has gone straight onto my wish list.
As well as the Spring Summer collection, Singh has also designed some bags specifically for evening wear- again using satin and beads in a variety of styles and designs.
For a must-have, take a peek at style Pe2326 in gold and bronze. Super elegant and classy... Now I just need to find a dress to go with it. (Any excuse to shop.)
