Got a super great deal on a FA2011 Box Clutch today... but thinking about returning it =( sigh what to do what to do. It's the Ostrich and Minc Box Clutch!

:useless: LOL, I would really love to see your clutch. why do you want to return it? No matter how sweet the deal, if you're not in love, no need to keep it. J/S
 
hey everyone! what do you think of the demanta clutch in the barnacle print? would anyone have any modelling pics of it? i'm thinking of getting one and would love to hear your opinions about it!

I'm new to this thread but not new to loving McQueen. :D I love the print and the shape, but I'm just so cautious about the clutch being made out of satin. I'd be waaaay too scared to take it out to something like dinner because I just know my greasy fingers are gonna stain it something fierce. :-/

hi mx1 ! i've seen this bag in person and it's lovely! it has a gorgeous shine to it. However, I do agree with silversun about the material, which is exactly why I passed on it. It definitely felt delicate, but if that does not bother you- I say go for it! If you can't see it before you purchase it, maybe order it from Zappos or a website with a lenient return policy.
 
I actually just saw the clutch in person the other day - I'd been admiring it online, but never seen it IRL before - I was kinda shocked at how huge it was! It was much bigger than I was expecting, for some reason. Now I've slightly gone off the idea of AMQ clutches because they all seem gigantic compared to my tiny paws. :D

Haha I'm just shy of 5' tall and I frequently rock the De Manta tote... Makes the clutch seem so much smaller in comparison! I guess this means you need a box clutch :D But I still vote for the de manta! You'd definitely get more use out of it. It's totally on my list.

hi! did you feel like the material might rip or tear easily, or if it was thin? i do take care of my bags and i don't expect it to be as sturdy as its leather counterpart but i don't want to end up with something that wouldn't stand up to mild-medium usage. i do love the print!

The print is so gorgeous. As long as you take care of your bags, it shouldn't be an issue! I don't think it'll rip or tear easily at all. The satin seemed pretty sturdy to me. I would be more concerned about it being white. Although, any professional should be able to clean it.

thank you and to Silversun for the input! i'll do a reveal here if i do end up getting it!

She is a real beauty! Congrats! And you can totally defend yourself against muggers if need be. :laugh:

I love the gold python. I got the matching bracelet a while back, but the clutch is too much £££ for me. So glad to see lovely pics. Also, love how your nails match your twilly! :tup:
