Jimmy Choo Metallic Foldover Clutch



If there were an award for Queen of Handbag Justification, it would most likely go to me (ok, lies - I am sure some of you would totally out do me, especially some of the ladies of tPF ). Either way finding a bag that is reversible or comes with a small pouch or folds over completely 100% helps me justify a handbag. Call it part of the litigator in me from a very long line of lawyers and judges in my family.

For this reason, the Jimmy Choo Metallic Foldover Clutch is justifiable in my mind not only because it has a perfect champagne Italian leather colo, but also because it can be folder over to take the shape of a true clutch, or opened up to store something a little larger. Standing out is the perfectly bold gold tone hardware, outside zip pocket, and practially non-essential removable wrist strap. The price is exactly why I justify this bag to be two separate entities. A clutch for $825 is pricey, but for $413 for *each* version, is more feasible. Via Saks for $825.

Mischa Barton’s Louis Vuitton Baggy PM


Aside from the fact that I do not like her taste in men, I do like Little Miss Last Season OC Star and Weird Vomiter from 6th Sense handbag collection. Mischa Barton’s Louis Vuitton Baggy PM is perfect for a day around town and looks even better with Cisco not by her side. This picture really looks as if it is a screen shot from an OC episode, but we all know that can not be true; seeing that not only did she weakly die off last season, but also the show is being cut short this season. The Louis Vuitton Denim Baggy PM is a completely practical bag with the casual denim canvas, natural cowhide trim, two outer pockets, and an adjustable shoulder strap. Buy it through eLuxury for $1210.
