Default Marc by Marc Jacobs Softly Zip Clutch
Marc by Marc Jacobs Softly Zip Clutch

I was told by many of my college psychology professors that we all have a little bit of OCD in us. I am not sure if anyone else was looking at the board at that time wondering why the marker colors were not matching, writing was not in a straight line, and the desk in the front of the class was slightly to the left. Call me crazy but I get really edgy when something asymmetrical comes my way. If the asymmetrics don't make sense to me and I yearn to see a mirror image, I literally start to twitch (ok not that bad). But even with this Marc by Marc Jacobs Softly Zip Clutch I am getting a little anal with the two front pouches not matching one another. One has a flap and a snap closure, while the other has a zip closure and a besom pocket. Pulling out hairs now. Even without my slight case of OCD for order and symmetry, this clutch seriously looks like it is winking at me. Hey, I know I look good, but not that good! Soft grained leather, aged brass hardware, paisley textile lining, and lots of inner goodies (coin pocket, two gusseted compartment, six card slots, and a billfold), make this clutch like a wallet and easy to carry necessities. Measurements are 7.5"x 4"x 1.5". Available for those without OCD via eLuxury for $168.

ITA with Megs- the asymmetry is a tad irksome, but it is cute!

i love asymmetrical things. i'm the opposite. i get nervous and a bit ocd when things are too matchy-matchy.
that said, it's a cute clutch but a bit too masculine. it would really work as a man-purse, all you need is a wrist strap.
