Want It Wednesday: Novelty Bags are the New Normal

The current handbag market has two dominant extremes: minimalist day bags and maximalist novelty clutches and mini bags. Today, we’ve decided to explore the latter end in this week’s edition of Want It Wednesday, and it’s more familiar territory for some of us than others. Below, check out the novelty bags that we’d like to add to our collections. (Also, please give a warm welcome to Taylor, the newest member of the PurseBlog team!)

that crisp packet clutch is brilliant. the surface area-to-price ratio is appalling, but that kind of creativity should be rewarded accordingly (I wish by me, but one day…)!

Megs Mahoney Dusil

Yep, I LOVE that one too!

I caved and bought the SHANNON
MOSCHINO MOTO JACKET MINI BAG in hot pink after I was seduced by its cuteness! It’s totally frivolous to spend $$ on bags such as these, but geez they’re fun to carry around!

Shannon

Isn’t that bag cute!?!?! Sooooo glad you got it!

klynneann

Can’t tell how big/how much stuff you can get into it, but that MM6 Bow Clutch is adorable!

If you go to the product page, behind the bow is a big zipper pouch, so I think you can fit a decent amount of stuff!

klynneann

Oh, I see – I bet you could fit quite a bit. But my goodness, it’s a HUGE bow lol!! I think that makes me like it even more. 🙂

Katherine Callaghan

The huge bow is just one of the reasons I love this bag so much, too!

Sparkletastic

I know! I’m a sucker for bows and that bag is tooooo cute. Plus it’s a great price for a novelty bag. I may have to grab it.

Y Ajayi

love the crisp packet handbag, spoke with AH SAs and they say it’s very popular despite the price. Would love one, soon hopefully…

Stina Sias

… anybody else think the python clutch looks like the Maury logo?

Megs Mahoney Dusil

It’s not great tbh and it is even my choice – but it’s my initial so I was digging it!

Stina Sias

I think my comment speaks more to my horrible tv watching habits 😀 I love the idea of an initial clutch!
