Go right ahead and cuff me! Normally when I utter those words, I’m hoping to get my wrist buckled in with something along the lines of Hermès or Givenchy, but who needs a cuff bracelet when your seductive clutch comes complete with one of its own?
I have been eagerly awaiting Lanvin’s Partition clutches to hit stores, and now here they are, right in time for my inevitable late-spring shopping bonanza. Sharp and edited, the rectangular lines of this confident pochette make the ideal complement to a curving wristlet. I’m rarely one to resist pale-pink python ($3,145), this one the shade of a delectable summertime rosé, but there’s something uncompromisingly chic about ivory leather ($2,150), set off by rose gold and a contrasting strap. It’s neutral yet as powerful as a bright hue. Black ($2,290) or chestnut brown ($2,290) will prove tempting for those who like their bags to tread easily into fall, and no matter which texture and color you pick, it’s a win-win situation. For your wrist and your wardrobe.
Available at Barneys New York for $2,150-$3,145.
