I also love anything that sparkles, especially a Marc by Marc Jacobs sparkly clutch that is so luxuriously put together from leather with shiny, polished hardware.

DVF Tonda Clutch in Gold or Silver
The clutch is now also available in gold or silver lambskin leather for the new season. These new season bags have a delicate snakeskin print embossing to the leather and instead of the signature twig clasp, they have a pushlock fastening. They are fully lined with an interior pouch pocket, and have a detachable gold tone chain strap.

Measurements: Width: 8.9″/22.5 cm, Height: 4.3″/11cm, depth: 2.4″/6cm (all measurements are approximate).
Style Note: The pink version is a luxurious clutch bag, in an interesting colour, named “Azalea” by DVF. It’s unusual, yet looks good against the gold hardware. Team the clutch with a gold dress if you have one (Halston Heritage did a wonderful gold lamé dress last season which you may be lucky enough to own, this season, Vivienne Westwood has a metallic lurex draped dress which would go perfectly with this bag). Alternatively, the bag would contrast well against any dark colour.
The gold and silver versions are strikingly eye catching and would look great teamed with a figure hugging frock and matching vertiginous heels.
