Fashion Frenzy and Fuzzy

Well, hello, Monday! Nothing beats the blues (and this never-ending winter) like a beautiful bag, and this Nina Ricci clutch trumps all the other cobalt, indigo, azure, navy, and true blue pick-me-ups I’ve seen in some time. From the shape to the shade, Nina Ricci hits all the right notes with their oversized clutch in the perfect hue of French blue. It’s rich, it’s sumptuous, it’s big enough to keep you from forgoing anything, and you can actually hold it comfortably, so don’t hesitate to take this out for the whole day (and night too, for that matter).

The minimal yet high-impact piece of flawlessly placed gold hardware, serves up both form and function for a handle I can get behind, and the elegant envelope folds introduce just enough detailing. Bonus: you can also utilize the smart zipper pull as a wristlet strap for a handy alternative. All in all, this is the best day clutch I’ve seen in quite a while. On NET-A-PORTER for $1,450.

Pair with: Balmain’s pale pink cotton biker jacket doesn’t just come in a complementary color for a lovely contrast against deep blue. With their trademark double-breasted buttons and luxe hardware, it’s almost obsession-worthy. On My Theresa for $2,856.
