Pewter Lizard Clutch, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags

Kelly Locke Pewter Lizard Clutch Handbag

This Pewter Lizard Clutch by Kelly Locke looks more like a wallet than a handbag, but sometimes that's just what you need. Marketed as a "portable, practical work of art" it is understated, edgy, and contemporary. Crafted of pewter lizard leather with metallic leather accents and silk-thread hand-stitching, it has a suede lining with one interior slip pocket and it comes with a cloth dust bag. $500

And if you like the look but aren't crazy about the color check out these Spotted Hair Calf and Mandarin Lizard versions.

Also called the 'Venice Evening Bag' this is a pretty, classic little clutch in neutral colors and a unique but amazingly simple shape. Mirroring the beauty and elegance of the city after which it's named, this Fossati creation has a magnetic snap closure, interior pockets for your cell phone and credit cards, and is lined in luxe lambskin. Measures a tiny 9" x 5" x 1 1/2" and comes with a card of authenticity. A clutch in the truest form, and one you can wear with almost anything at almost any time of year. $750

Lizard Daisy Clutch, Handbag of the Day

It looks a little '70s disco to me, which isn't a bad thing as it evokes vibes of fun parties and lots of laughter. The Lizard Daisy Clutch by Adriana Castro combines natural lizard leather with a metallic floral pattern that will catch the light and attract attention wherever you go. It closes with a hidden magnet and has a suede lining (I wonder if it's bright flourescent pink?), one interior pocket, and it's smaller than I thought it was at just 6 3/4" x 9 1/2" x 1 1/4". $895

Roberto Coin's 'Animalier' Collection

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Jewelry

Apparently looking to capture the spirit and energy of the wild kingdom, Roberto Coin has taken inspiration from creatures like elephants, giraffes, and cobras to created the Animalier Collection. Using mostly diamonds, gold, silver, and enamel, with occasional appearances by other precious materials like onyx and tiger's eye, the collection is full of vibrancy, sparkle, and organic earthy inspiration. And as an additional bonus, each piece has a ruby placed on it, usually hidden somewhere on the inside, as an artist's signature and also a symbol of protection.

I wouldn't have thought that one of the snake ones would be my favorite, but I just love the chunky pink cobra ring!
