Does anyone remember the paillette-embellished handbags a couple of years ago? They were typically shapeless sacks covered from top to bottom with those ridiculously over-sized sequins. I remember them being very popular among all the teenagers and twenty-somethings. And although I fell into that age group, I had absolutely no intentions of carrying around a deflated disco ball. So you can understand why I was apprehensive with the whole idea of Miu Miu coming out with a paillette-embellished bag. It’s called the Miu Miu Ombré Paillette-Embellished Clutch. But you know what? Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I’m saying this… but this clutch is actually pretty darn cute. I really like how an ombré effect was created with different colored sequins. The burgundies, pinks, and reds shimmer so beautifully. This clutch is anything but a disco ball! I think I might be changing my mind about paillette-embellished accessories, especially where this lovely clutch is concerned. While they may look awkward and gawdy on a daytime bag, paillettes look perfectly fine on this tiny evening bag. So check this lovely piece out ladies, you might find yourself pleasantly surprised. The color would go perfectly with all our little black dresses for Fall!

The Miu Miu Ombré Paillette-Embellished Clutch comes with a detachable cross-body strap. It measures 7″ x 3″ x 2″ and it retails for $950. Find it at NET-A-PORTER.COM!
