Spring is coming soon and I've been looking at the collections again, there are so many pretty things! As usual, there are lots of styles derived from vintage inspiration. When I saw these transparent clutches from Valentino, I instantly thought of the 1950's Lucite versions. If you don't mind everyone seeing what's inside your bag, these are a fun accessory to carry!

You can find vintage versions of these in antique shops and online for a hundred or so dollars as opposed to a thousands of dollars for the runway version. Here are a few I found: 1, 2, 3.
This one is a completely different shape, but I love it, and we have this similar one in our shop.
