Kotur Margo Hicks Blue Valentine Clutch

Love the striking contrast between the clean blue and white and the big bold red tassel. I’m seeing more tassels this year in purses, earrings, a few bracelets and more necklaces.

Tidbit about me: I’m a china collector. I actually collect it for friends; Kelly has a nice set from Tiffany’s I sent her every birthday and Christmas piece by piece (when she started receiving them, she asked, “What are you, my grandmother?” lol). I love a good China pattern! But never thought I’d love it on a bag. Until I saw this limited-edition box clutch from Kotur: Fiona hit the mark perfectly!

It resembles precious porcelain in a way that’s not kitschy or overboard. The vintage brocade fabric, in such a classic color combination, is sweet but not too dainty. And it’s the perfect fit for a bold adornment. The bright-red silken tassel makes a strong statement, delightfully throwing off the scale of this itty-bitty minaudiere.
What makes it a true blue valentine? Not only does it have a semi-precious stone clasp and a crystal ball chain, it’s got a saucy surprise: a pair of “hot lips.” That’s the kiss-off for the latest addition to my China collection. At Kotur for $450.

Pair with: Achieve the feel of lush romance with Valentino’s scarlet sandal in plush velvet, ideal for a winter’s special date night. At Bergdorf Goodmanicon for $695.
