We. Love. Stripes. In one particular (to remain nameless) Angel Handbag employee’s closet, striped long sleeve shirts, short sleeved shirts, tank tops, skirts, dresses, and even shoes of various bands all play in heavy rotation. (Noticeably missing are the striped pants. We’ll leave that look to the inmates and the Stones.) The look is classic and always fresh, even when slashed, draped, and tucked to beautiful new heights.
You can imagine, of course, that to say we are obsessed with the Helena de Natalio “Giselle” Clutch would be an understatement. The right clutch to replace a clunky shoulder bag can be incredibly fashionable for day or night, lending a certain air of uptown elegance. Geometric strips of leather mix it up with embossed python in this perfectly-sized clutch, roomy enough for all your essentials without too much heaviness. (Remember when we talked about the dangers of a heavy purse? We thought so…) Choose the gray incarnation for an icy-chic Russian-heiress look, the tan for a nude warmth that would go great with the summer’s chambray and denim trend, or our favorite, the lilac, for an utterly original and effortless piece that goes with everything you own. It’ll earn it’s stripes. Really.
