Thank you Carlinha! I will definately keep an eye out for you. You want this specific one or any kind of clutch or just knuckledusters!
this specific one - fuchsia eel knuckle duster! it was from several seasons ago and i passed on it and still kicking myself to this day!!!
i just love love the color so much
Don't kick yourself too hard, your collection is the stuff dreams are made of!this specific one - fuchsia eel knuckle duster! it was from several seasons ago and i passed on it and still kicking myself to this day!!!
thank you! but i'm missing a fuchsia in it though, which is one of my fave colors
I am really surprised that you didn't get the Pink Python Knuckleduster. It is TDF!!!!

Hello 318,
Aren't you the owner of at least 3 de manta clutches? If so, what are your pros and cons. I've got my eye on a purple one with skulls. How handy are they? Can you load 'em up with a bunch of stuff? Any other tidbids of info would be much appreciated.
Does anyone have the faithful glove clutch? Any intel on this clutch?
Thank you all
Hi, Soleilbrun. Yes, I have three thus far, two made out silk/satin blend, and the other is a Jacquard fabric. I can easily say that the Jacquard is more easier to function with, but all are fab. As far as easily getting in and out, to me, it's a little time consuming, because the flaps will flap back down when you are unzipping, but it can hold a lot. I just threw some items into my Jacquard DeManta. Here is a list of what I just put into it:
"Beats By Dr. Dre Solo headphones"
"Digital Camera"
"iPhone 4"
"A full wallet"
"A small bracelet"
I just grabbed a few things, nothing in particular. I would never carry my Headphones with me like that, but I still have a lot of room left to throw things into it. It also has an internal zipper, it's a nice little size, so thats handy. It will hold tons more than a Skill Clutch, but I feel if you load it up with items, you should carry it in your arm, off to the side of you, instead of just carrying it like you would a Skull Clutch, you know. Let me know if there is any more info that you would like to know about them, I am more than fine with providing photos and anything else that will help you make your decision. I love the DeMantas, but I still prefer my Skull Clutches. I will carry these in the day or like to a evening dinner, but more during the day if I carry one. HTH
Pro:
Big enough to carry a lot in. Wallets, Cameras, phones, makeup, ect.
A LOT less bulky than a tote
Con:
Flimsy if there isn't anything in it.
Also, the flaps come down while you are trying to zip-unzip it. (That may not be a big problem, though- it's just something that I personally don't like)
PS. If there are specific items you want me to put in them, let me know. Good Luck

Thank you, that was super helpful. I am happy to hear that you have both skull clutches and demanta clutches. I thought I might be on overdrive to want to have both! I suppose it is good and bad to be able to fit tons of stuff in them.
Do you think a fushia knuckleduster and a purple demanta clutch is too similar? I don't have many AMQ handbags and think it might be wiser to branch out style and colorwise befor buying similar items.
I have the faithfull booties with gold studs and love the look of the matching glove clutch. I tend to have a strong leaning towards matchy-matchy sometimes.
I will let you know if I crack on the demanta and if so, I'll need your authenticated expertise.

LOL, no problem. You can NEVER have too much MCQUEEN!!
. It is always a pleasure to meet a fellow McQueen Lover!!! I feel like you should get what you truly LOVE, and what you know for a fact you will use. I don't feel like it is too similar, but in the same field, maybe? They are two completely different looks, so no, I don't think they are similar.I absolutely LOVE the Black Leather with Gold Stud Faithful Booties!! I wanted the matching handbag, but I went another route and missed out. I think I may have made the right choice, but I still want it,LOL I wish I could wear his shoes, but they do not make my size. I would have to get them VIP ordered, which one day, I may do. the Glove clutch was TDF,a nd another one I passed on just because I wasn't completely sure. Hate myself sometimes, you know.
I need to get a knuckleduster as well! Yes, keep me in the loop, and PM me when you want me to take a look at the clutch!! Good Luck 
I'd love to have this clutch authenticated!! TIA!

I have been looking for this one as for a long time as well.... What a lucky find and a great buy wear it well
-M
sorry this may be a little late, but i've never seen the union jack clutch in this colorway... that's not to say it wasn't produced as a UK exclusive... based on the pics I think it looked OK. did you win it?
Thanks Carlinha!
Yes, I did end up winning the auction. I remember there being a pink and yellow one. The yellow one was exclusive to Selfridges. However, I can't seem to find a whole lot of info on the pink but I know I've seen it before.
