Marc arriving with Stella McCartney to the opening of the Venice Contemporary Art Centre in June 2009. He is carrying an Hermès Be-bop as a clutch. He is certainly getting a lot of mileage out of that Comme des Garcons kilt.

Just unveiled at the Dolce & Gabbana Men's Spring/Summer 2010 show, virtually every model sauntered down the catwalk carrying a clutch. I remember years ago while Domenico and Stefano were espousing cargo pants, they said how much they hated manbags. Ah, how times have changed. As the final evening looks were being presented, take note that none of the models were carrying these bags. The first image is my favorite look from the collection.

Since I am currently obsessed with man clutches I thought I may as well show these two styles from Prada. Will the trend take off?

After some careful consideration, I could not imagine carrying a Vuitton Wapity. I still think it is an amusing small leather good and I may get one to keep in my day bag.

So, I bring you to the point. A friend of mine introduced me to a friend of his and as it turns out, it was a good match. This lovely woman had recently purchased an Hermès Jet Clutch and was having buyer's remorse. I believe it did not suit her lifestyle as much as she had hoped. Well, I think it is going to suit mine just fine.

Introducing my new to me Hermès Jet Clutch. This newly designed unisex bag is based on the classic Sac a Depeche briefcase and features the same iconic hinged hardware of the original. My new clutch is in classic Black Box calf with Palladium hardware. The wrist strap is removable. The interior has a gusseted compartment as well as a zippered section, all lined in luscious black Chevre (goatskin). This will work for evenings when I need to carry a few more things than I would like to have in my pockets.
