Mini Bags, Cocktail Bags, Going-Out Bags – My Next Splurge

Whether it is a clutch or a mini bag every girl needs a stylish, versatile bag they can head to dinner with and/or a night out on the town.

I was in Vegas recently and used my favorite mini bag (shown above), this Louis Vuitton Favorite MM Mini Bag in Monogram Canvas.  I love this clutch for so many reasons – it’s a classic, the bag comes with a small gold chain which has a 12″ drop and a longer nude leather strap with a 24″ drop.  The price is a splurge at $985, but I have used this bag so many times if I divide the uses by the cost it actually ends up being way cheaper than $100 bags I have purchased in the past.   I have had this bag for so many years I am coveting a few other splurge worthy bags.  Here are some of my favorites I have been eyeing (all come with removable straps so they can be used as a clutch or a shoulder bag):
1. Louis Vuitton
1. Saint Lauren Y Chain Wallet, $1150 This is definitely a splurge, but this bag could be used in my wardrobe FOREVER – in love with this one!
2. Jimmy Choo ‘Riane’ Glimmer Lame Clutch, $725 I love this glittery clutch that is perfect for a big night out!
3. Salvatore Ferragamo ‘Miss Vara’ Clutch Wallet, $675 I can’t get over the dainty bow on this bag.  Like the other two it is a classic but the bow will be hard to pass up.
4. Prada Tessuto Small Cross Body Bag, $410 What this bag lacks in detail it makes up for in sheer classic design appeal.  I can’t imagine this bag ever going out of style.
When I finally do make a decision and purchase one of these beautiful bags (or if my husband wants to get me an awesome Anniversary gift!) I will be sure to let you know!  Let me know if you have any recommendations, I would love to hear them.
