I have had my eye on the Kate Spade book clutches for a while now, unfortunately the hefty price tag of $328 has been enough for me to avoid actually buying one.
Luckily flash sales exist! I bought mine for $125 which is still a pretty big purchase but much better than $328! I was trying to decide between the Great Gatsby and Great Expectations. I love books and specifically classic books so these were good options! I decided the Great Expectations clutch was a little too girly - it had hearts and swirls on it.
I decided to purchase The Great Gatsby clutch - it is one of my all time favorite books!
Yellow is not my favorite color, but I think if I pair it with a neutral outfit and let the book be my accent, it will look so nice for cocktail parties and nights out!
I really like the general look of it - it kind of feels like a library book. I'm a bit nerdy and love library books so that appeals to me! It has a glossy finish which I love.
I also love how I can store it! It makes a perfect topper to my book shelf. ( I know my bookshelf is a little crazy - I really need to get another one, but my apartment is tiny!)
I would say the only down side is the interior is a bit small, but I expected that. In order to look like a real book you can't have it overly large. It can fit my cellphone, lipstick and my cash/cards if I take them out of my wallet and use the built in wallet on the inside of the clutch.
I love that the clutch closes well! It features the cute little Kate Spade logo and just looks very suave. I looked at buying similar items on etsy but all of them had zip-closures and I just like how nice the metal rim looks.
All in all, I am super happy with my purchase!
