Glitter Bomb! Betty Brice Clutch Bags

Every decade has come back into fashion at some point or another. The sixties were a last season favourite, the forties dress lengths are back for S/S’14, but the twenties? So far that seems to have stayed pretty well locked away in the past. Who knows why? The twenties were an era of glamour and extravagance, shift dresses adorned with beads and tassels were the norm; men wore full three piece suits and drove cars that we now only get to see at ‘Glorious Goodwood’.

So when the idea for Betty Brice came around it was a breath of fresh air.

Every gorgeous accessory is inspired by the designers’ (Ailie and Bryony) Grandmothers walk in wardrobe, and each item is named after a different flapper girl.

On a night out, with the Summer season just hidden around the corner, what are you going to wear? Well, while your friends are all in mid length flared skirts, in smatterings of red lipstick and trialing victory rolls you need to be one step ahead. To do that you’ll need an elegantly embellished shift dress, bare legs, some T-bar heels, and of course a Betty Brice clutch, pressed firmly under your arm.

The clutch we’re talking about here is called the Betsy. It comes in a simple envelope shape made of luxurious leather and a glamorous glitter fabric. With one of these stunning little beauties under your arm, you won’t need a disco ball; you’ll be one! The light will hit the glitter and you’ll be sending reflections all over the place, all eyes will be on you, because why wouldn’t they be?

What we love most about the Betsy is its diversity. Midnight blue will look stunning with a simple black dress. Wear the burgundy clutch with whatever you want, just make sure you match your lipstick to it. The tan and gold one will look sleek next to an outfit of colour.

But there are so many more! Check them out and find your perfect bag for your favourite outfit!
