Babeyond Clutch ($24)
This clutch features a knot-shaped handle, so you can loop it around your wrist when you need to be hands-free. It comes in two sizes, with the largest being big enough to fit a cellphone. Aside from this velvet burgundy style, it also comes in other fun options with rhinestones, pearls, and more. Our editor tested out the brand’s sequined version ($24) and was surprised by how versatile it actually is. For more details and photos, read her Babeyond Clutch review.
Editor Quote: “The knot shape feels very on-trend, but it also makes for a convenient design since I can slip the loop around my wrist. A clutch that requires my hands when there’s eating and drinking in proximity is the worst sort of clutch, in my opinion. The sequins add eye-catching sparkle, but the black color and small shape keep it from feeling gaudy. It plays well with other shiny pieces like silk skirts, studded booties, and rhinestone jewelry, and it elevates basics like jeans and a black turtleneck for dinner and drinks. It has a zipper closure, so you can rest assured that the contents of your purse will stay safe, and a magnetic snap closure that holds the knot shape.” — Angela Elias, contributing editor, Shopping
