I know I was a little hard on Kate Spade this past Monday, so now I’ll make up for it by drooling over these amazing clutches she just introduced. I mean.. they’re amazing. Like.. I would give my left kidney amazing. [And yes I am known to be an over-exaggerater] But before we get started, you should probably let this play in the background while you oogle over these clutches. Now that Death Cab is warming up your ears let me share a little bit of honesty with you. I love Kate Spade, this is obvious, BUT I usually swoon over her jewelry or clothing more than her handbags. Don’t get me wrong they are perfectly lovely, but they never have that oomph where I’m willing to fork over some serious cash for. Now these babies, they are divine.

I mean, to me they don’t even look very Kate Spade-esque, until you open one, and then it’s like BAM! Kate Spade. All up in there. I don’t even know where to begin explaining why I love the Bixby clutch so much. It’s probably the wood and lacquer bauble closure, and the perfect juxtaposition of the soft leather. Or is it the sunny interior? I really can’t say, but this bag has me really excited about what’s to come for the fall collection. Now please don’t think I’m so head-over-heels in love that I’d spend $325 on one of these. I’m going to wait patiently for them to go on sale just like a normal sane bargain shopper would, but it’s SO hard to think that maybe they’ll sell out before that can happen. Oh and they’re is also a full handbag version, but what can I say? I’m smitten for the clutch.
