You’re no one at the Golden Globes without a metallic clutch.
Helen Mirren and Meryl Streep are in the clutch here. Mirren was nominated for three, count them, three, Golden Globes – two for her roles as Queen Elizabeth (I and II) and one as Detective Superintendent Tennison on Prime Suspect. Streep’s nomination, best performance by an actress in a musical or comedy film, was for her performance in The Devil Wears Prada. Seen here on the red carpet prior to the awards ceremony, the two veteran actors are carrying cute metallic clutch bags.
Helen’s is silver, with crystals on the clasp – and here’s one from Zappos that’s very similar. It’s silver silk with the same style pleats, and it will hold a teeny cell phone, a lipstick and a dime to call your mother. Retail price is $198.95.
I found one similar to Meryl’s at Macy’s for $49.99. The shape is sleek but structured like hers and it has the little hidden chain shoulder strap for when you need or want it. I like the oyster color – it’s got the same feel as the gold, and it’s also very versatile.
These bags are classic styles, so you might try vintage retailers or online auctions to find the shape and color. You can’t go wrong with a little clutch, they’re always perfectly in style.
