We would never go so far to recommend you become a slave to fashion. However, oversized clutches are a snazzy way to punch up your look for winter. Our cell phones are getting bigger after all; what else should be expected of us? Take a look at our favorite outfits for work and play and see how easily a new handbag fits into the mix.
Oversized Clutches in Robin’s Egg Blue
Who needs a little blue box for Christmas when a purse will do? Look for oversized clutches in bright colors to offset winter neutrals. A leather clutch in a contrasting color is a very pretty winter accessory for dresses in satin or silk. Purses in red, blue, and green are just as versatile as your usual brown or black. So change it up!
Girl Gang
Bottega Veneta placed these bags on trend and they are flying into carts near and far. Oversized clutches are the perfect balance of casual and chic. They tell your party of five that you have arrived! Hold one effortlessly in the crook of your arm and tell the paparazzi, “no thanks”. Add a little filtration to this season’s preppy outfits.
Slouchy Neutrals
If you’re the business causal kind of girl that likes to match your bag to your boots, we’ve got you covered. This year’s slouchy, oversize clutches come in buttery neutrals, too. They work in tandem with your knee-high boots and oversized blazer in a practical fashion. We know you need your stuff on hand and purses of this size just make sense.
Weaving Into Winter
There are a few basic styles to choose from besides the slouchy guys. Oversized clutches in soft woven leather are a little more outside of the box. We love them in classic colors like eggshell white and bone. Totally hip to mix in with trench coats and plaid.
So Big But So Quaint
Fashion mavens always work vintage in with modern trends. Oversized clutches are a cool way to play with big and small. Improve on the standard coin purse and create some juxtapositions with your outfit. Vintage styles and fun fabrics make this style a total hit.
Needing a Little Structure
Another way to play with yin and yang is to add a more structured style to an otherwise casual outfit. A black clutch with a wide leather weave adds some lady-like sensibility to a masculine outfit. Also, structured clutches that are larger in size can also double as holders for your tablet. These are perfect for working girls and creative types.
Hang On To One
No need to worry about being hand-free all the time. We like oversized clutches for work and for easy gatherings where you don’t have to keep a close watch on your stuff. They are a fun trend to explore and help add a little light-heartedness to any winter outfit. Just grab it and go!
I found a great array of clutches at Harbor Freight. 😉
The clutch went out on my truck last week. Cost over $800 to fix…. 😉
