The Style Scoop: Statement clutches

Hello stylish readers! Today, we introduce our latest feature, The Style Scoop, which offers a  

comprehensive overview of the latest trends.

First up, we focus on statement clutches which can uplift the simplest outfit. We've taken heaps
of time to find the hottest clutches, group them, and include links to each clutch
in case something tickled your fancy! 

Groupings for the following clutches include: 

1. Cut-outs 

2. Embellishments: Beads, buttons, glitter, and a whole lot more.   

3. 'Piecing it together': An interesting mix of shapes, colours, patterns, and prints results in a cohesive pattern.  

4. Florals 

5. Literal statements: Clutches inspired by popular culture texts. E.g., book clutches like "The Never Ending 

Lovestory", and speech bubbles derived from comics. 

6.  Edgy: These have spikes, skulls, etc. Or a mix between lady-like and edgy bits like the third clutch from
 the left.

Frugalista Series: From the runway to the clearance bin

Hey everyone, this is the second entry in our FRUGALISTA SERIES. If you missed the first one, see it HERE. Today, we focus on 'inspired' clothing. Do you remember that scene from the movie The Devil wears Prada where Andy comments that the belts look exactly the same?

Miranda retorts, "[clothes are] filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic Casual Corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin." Ouch! What can we learn from this?
