I've never been much of a clutch girl. There's something about having to grip onto something all night while you're also trying to sip a cocktail and mingle with fellow party-goers – I'd almost always rather haul a clunkier purse that I can just throw over my shoulder hands-free, even if it's not the most evening-appropriate look. But the fashion world's recent resurfaced obsession with minaudieres have me tempted to switch over to the mini side! Minaudieres just exude effortless chicness – they're cute, compact, and clean with their structured silhouettes, not to mention crisis-free with their spill-proof closures, and add an instant air of sophistication to even the most simplistic LBD. From ultra-glam sparkly pieces from Clutch Queen Judith Leiber to edgy skull-embellished treasures from Alexander McQueen, a minaudiere can totally make or break a night-out ensemble! Check out my favorites in the links below!
