An Evening Out


When you don’t need to carry the kitchen sink in your purse or haul around a diaper bag – try a clutch. Vintage clutches pair well with evening wear as a focal piece and are worn almost like jewelry.

Pick a purse that matches your personality from vintage needlepoint like our tapestry scenehandbag lined with gorgeous scarlet interior. Or try something a bit more luxurious feeling like the scarlet velvet of our Burgundy Jazz clutch.

If you are looking for the perfect finishing touch to your wedding ensemble, you might want to check out our Vintage Asian beaded Purse in white. And speaking of weddings…the perfect gift for your new mother-in-law might just be a vintage clutch of her own – like our gold leaf designer bag – made in England.
