Get the Look: 12 Sparkly Clutches Under $50

New Year’s Eve is the night you can unapologetically pretend you’re a princess, or Madonna, or whatever your sparkly fantasy may be. Evening bags in metallics, sequins, studs, mesh, lace, they’re all fair game on New Year’s Eve. Even if you wear the most boring, I mean classic, little black dress, be sure to carry a jewel of a clutch. These 12 evening bags all cost under $50. Price is important if you’re only brandishing the sparkly bag once a year.

Giveaway! Matt and Nat Vegan Clutch

takumi

I heart this clutch. It could be yours, for free. Poor me, I’ll have to buy it.

It’s from StefaniBags.com, a site with a great collection of the best boutique handbag brands, including Hayden-Harnett, Foley + Corinna, Botkier, Kooba, Jalda, and Matt & Nat. Owner Monica Prestia, whom I e-met through my work with Store Adore, has offered to give away one FREE Matt & Nat Takumi Clutch (regularly priced at $245) to a random Style Carrot reader who signs up for the Stefanibags.com newsletter.

The Takumi Clutch is part of Matt & Nat’s new Japanese Paper Collection. It’s grey (my favorite color for clothing; blah but true), vegan, with tone on tone stitching, 100% recycled grey faux suede lining, antique brass and copper hardware, and Matt & Nat logo bar. There’s a front zipper closure and an open pocket on the back, and the interior has a zip pocket and cell phone and PDA pockets. There are two hand held straps, plus a detachable, adjustable shoulder strap. Pretty much perfect, right?

Email Monica at monica@stefaniBags.com to enter the giveaway and receive the StefaniBags.com newsletter. Type “Style Carrot Clutch” in the subject line and send. You will automatically be entered to win the clutch and signed up for the Stefanibags.com newsletter. Deadline is August 24th.

Good luck and may the most stylish carrot win!
