Default Good Grief, She's Huge!

(...and I love every inch of her!)

I just got this clutch today and thought it was going to be an itty bitty little thing or at least around the same size as a typical clutch. That was not the case! This clutch nearly took up every inch of the big ol' Priority Mail box she came in. I really love it; it has this pirate-y/bondage thing going on that is really unique and the leather is awesome. It came with a gold chain which adds even more pizazz to the clutch.

I have also taken pics next to a standard sized soda can and a MJ Zip Clutch so you can get an idea of its size.

Im curious to ask, what would you guys wear with this clutch? I'd really appreciate your ideas.
Also, do you prefer the clutch with the gold chain on it or without?

It's quite big. I wonder what it's going to be like to carry around once you have your things in it?

I. I really love it; it has this pirate-y/bondage thing going on that is really unique and the leather is awesome.



I love it too, I think it looks cool and edgy!

Hmmm, I think I like it without the gold chain. Is it comfortable to hold in your hand?

Wow!, what a gorgeous clutch!! I think i like it w/out the chain; the leather is so pretty & the design that it doesn't need anything else.

WOW!! It is huge. I love it. I would wear the chain at night, and if you are going out in the day with it, I would take off the chain. The clutch is gorgeous and its awesome you could fit so much in it. I love the leather, its so unique. Great buy!

Arrrr-matey! She be bad ass! If you clipped the chain to the sides you could wear it like a shoulder bag.

I totally love that idea. I know when I go out at night, and I take clutches (which I don't ever use anymore) I hate holding them after awhile. It's nice to have the option to put over your shoulder.

I love it! Oversized clutches are in! I would wear it with a simple mini dress or something like that, and let the clutch do all the talking!!

Lol! I had one of those clutches in black from BlueFly and really liked it, but returned it because it was part suede. I wasn't sure how it would hold up. I like it better without the chain, however, I think it would look really cool if you could find a messenger-length gold chain to attach to the brackets and wear it cross-body.

Hurray for big clutches!

Its cute! RM's clutches are a lot bigger than what i'm normally use to seeing! When i saw the blind date, and the lex, i was like i can use these to tote small stuff in everyday.

Where'd you find this beauty?

Haha, I have the same one and thought the same thing! I finally took it out last weekend. I just wore it with jeans and a cute top and gold wedge sandals. I did adjust the chain though and clipped it to the side metal thing and the zipper so I could carry it on my shoulder. My sister thought it looked kinda weird, but I liked it! Easier to wear at least!

Oh, I really like this bag gung...especially since it is so big -- I love love love oversized clutches. I also like it with the chain -- I think it goes with hardware, which makes the whole bag look very rocker-chick-like. I would probably use it as a clutch though and not a shoulder bag. Out of curiosity, is this bag still available anywhere for purchase that you know of????
