You really cannot say that you are ready and all dressed, if you don’t have the right accessories to carry the look with. Accessories enhance the look and they bring to the diva a certain chic appeal, which cannot be described in mere words. From statement neck pieces to angling Chaandbalis, shoes, the designer clutch bags and more, you ‘ve got to have them all. With that being said and irrespective of what you choose to wear at your besties wedding or bash, or maybe for a formal gathering, you have got to have one of the chicest trendy designer clutches as an investment fashionable memento.

TRENDY DESIGNER CLUTCHES

Here are five trendy trendy designer clutches for weddings and formal dos to drool upon! Check out these five trendy clutches for wedding or clutches for brides that can be carried to the weddings and the receptions too!

Michael Kors

Who wouldn’t want to have Michael Kors on them or carrying one with them? If you really have to think about the investment made to flaunt a chic style, this is the trendiest clutch bag you need to own. Suave and high class, made from fine quality leather and one that speaks of regality like nothing else can, a tan brown MK clutch bag is one that works for all parties.

YSL Clutch

If you like it back, baby there’s no turning back, which is why YSL brings to us in an all black avatar with a sexy metal chain and embossed clip in front, a snake leather dapper looking party-office clutch. Party-office, because it can transition from the serious girl at work to the party chick so chic in a matter of seconds, and gels with almost anything you plan to wear. This is a must-have piece by YSL that you simply cannot say NO to.

Louis Vuitton

For the love of fashion Gods, you have got to think about the Louis Vuitton Limited Edition Monogram Mink Mini Papillon Bag as one of the chicest and most wanted clutches for brides that want an earthy touch to their wedding ensemble amongst all the bling and shine. A limited edition that too, Louis Vuitton knows exactly how to stir up the emotions and minds of th fashionista that doesn’t like to drool on doubles.

Alexander McQueen

Trust the ace maestro Alexander McQueen to come up with nothing short of a regal queen touch to anything and everything they curate. This time though, embellished with metallic touches and stones, the Alexander McQueen Embellished Fish Clutch is a major draw for most PYTs wanting a luxe affair in their hands, matching their evening wear. In pure black as a base with a metallic toning done all over, the Alexander McQueen Embellished Fish Clutch works best as a clutch that can accompany a bride at her wedding.

Dolce Gabbana

If you love all things bling with vibrant cool colors around, you may then fall in love with the Dolce Gabbana 2014 edition of the bright blue crystal clutch. Embossed with ethnic desi embroidery and plenty of crystals and stones, the Dolce Gabbana women’s accessories, 2014 Fall-Winter clutch is a complete steal deal. Perfect to carry at one’s own wedding reception, the tones of blue and light yellows on the clutch gels into the Indian bridal ensemble concept and designs pretty well! Wouldn’t you kill for such a beauty to be in your hands? Not literally though!

Do let us know which of these five trendy clutches caught your fancy, and if you would like to add your own personal choices to the list mentioned, we would love it if you write in on the same. Clutches are a must, so pick one that you need for the occasion you have to attend, or else the whole look would not come as complete. The next time though, we would like to write about the best of the top clutch brands. Keep a watch on this space!

    “Earrings aren’t my thing” said no pretty lass ever. Be it diamonds, rubies, emeralds or just fashion accessories, ear rings have been a must-to-do accessory for the fairer sex since they learnt to neaten and polish their appearance. However, ear-rings can either be your best friend or your worst enemies on any occasion and any time. If you wear a pair that disagrees with your facial structure, it’s a definite fashion disaster. This is why if we have mirrors at jewelry shops, so that you check out the earrings for your face shape on display, and then judge if it suits you or not.

    Remember that time when you were rushing to the first date and you had your dress sorted out, your makeup so pretty and your shoes so chic, but what about the statement earrings? They just didn’t match up to what you were wearing or your face structure.

    EARRINGS TO SUIT YOUR FACE

    Now how do we know which are the best types of earrings for round face, or maybe how to choose the chicest type of earrings for oval face? Would Chaandbalis and jhumkas be the best earrings for square face or studs are best type of earrings for oval face? Let’s take a look and solve these queries once and for all by first understanding the face shape and types.

    Yes, just as we have the right fits for clothing and shoes, the same would be with earrings for your face shape as well. Here are a few tips to benefit the mass to understand how their facial contours and what ear-rings would be suitable for you:

    For The Pretty Round Face Lass

    If your face is widest at the cheekbones and has no visible tapering towards the chin, you have a round face. Based on this fact, you’re best advised to opt for long drops or the dangle ear-rings. This would help to elongate your face. However, stay away from dangle rings with round discs. Model to follow would be Kate Bosworth.

    For The Gorgeous Oblong Face Girl

    If your forehead is elongated and your cheekbones are broad with a narrow width, you have an oblong face. You can go for studs or clustered ear-rings or short dangles or rings with hoops that are medium to large in size. Follow super model Joan Smalls as well; let her be your guide.

    For The Sensual Square Face Lady

    If your forehead and jaw are of similar length, then you have a square face. You can sport oval rings or circular rings, medium to long ones with a round edge or hoop ear-rings. Follow Miranda Kerr if you must.

    For The Cute Heart Shape Face PYT

    If your forehead is wider than the cheekbones and the lower half of your face is similar to a heart, well, you’ve a heart shaped face. Get the chandelier shaped rings or tear drop like rings or those that are wider at the bottom than the top. Follow celebrities like Michelle Pfeiffer, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Claudia Schiffer, and Naomi Campbell to seek guidance.

    For The Sassy Oval Shape Face Woman

    The gods were happy when they sculpted you they gave you a face for ear-rings of all sorts and shapes and kinds. However if the fashion consultants be considered, triangular ear-rings or simple studs be best for you! Model to be followed would be Rose Byrne.

    Fashion Focus on FLOTUS, Mrs. Obama

    US is about to elect their new President, and the debate over Hillary versus Trump is just getting heated by the hour. But all we can say is that White House might not get another First Lady as stylish as Michelle Obama. Yes, we know Melania Trump is a former model and a jewelry designer and is everything related to fashion and style, but no one stands as a magnificent amalgamation of class and fashion like Michelle Obama. No? Just check out her best fashion moments throughout the years.

    Oscar De La Renta Dress

    The first lady’s Oscar de La Renta dress became a huge hit after she visited Windsor Castle to wish the Queen on her 90th birthday. The purple dress with its intricate lace overlay appealed to the eyes of fashion gurus across the globe. She also knows how to accessorize her outfits alike and carried a black clutch with matching pumps to the castle.

    Naeem Khan

    The designer has always been a favored one among stars in the entertainment world but when the flotus chooses to wear one of your creations, you certainly need to notch up your game. The sweeping entrance of Michelle to the Nordic State Dinner in a spectacular blush-hued gown with an off-the-shoulder cut out to accentuated her famous toned arms demonstrates how the designer uped that game. We totally love it.

    Michelle Obama Designer Wear

    Narciso Rodriguez

    Obama was spotted during the National Medal for Museum and Library Service award presentation in a silk white and blue stripped top that she paired up with a matching crepe skirt in black at the White House. The ensemble was a stunning piece by Narciso Rodriguez.

    Boss

    During the United State of Women Summit, keeping up with her alacrity for tasteful clothing, Mrs. Obama took to the stage looking every bit elegant in a multi-colored lace dress. The outfit by Boss, with its geometric pattern gained more shine, when accompanied by co-host Oprah Winfrey, the first lady wore her famous smile.

    Narciso Rodriguez

    Mrs. Obama was a vision to watch as she arrived into Ezeiza, Argentina dressed in a purple hued number by Narciso Rodriguez. The feature of the dress that attracted every photographer’s focus was the orange graphic detailing.

    Naeem Khan

    The designer made entry into Obama’s closet once again while she wore a beautiful full sleeved black dress featuring elaborately embroidered floral patterns at the Palace of the Revolution in Havana, being guest to the Cuban President Raul Castro, for a state dinner.

    Jason Wu

    Michelle Obama walked with absolute radiance in a Jason Wu gown during a White House State Dinner. The custom strapless dress in the shade of midnight blue showcased decorative floral pattern on jacquard fabric but what stood out was the asymmetrical draping of the garment.

    Tanya Taylor

    Flotus opted for a Tanya Taylor dress which she classically paired with a black coat while Canadian welcoming the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (Oh, I can go and on about Justin and his hair, but may be in a different article, what say ladies?). The printed gown in jade green was everything that summed up the First Lady stature.

    Narciso Rodriguez

    Michelle looked stunning yet again, in a marigold-hued crepe dress by Narciso Rodriguez whom she has favored quite a number of times. But we can’t blame her for President Obama’s better half was glorious in the banded wool ensemble in her final State of the Union address.

    Vera Wang

    It was a wise decision on Michelle’s part to stun the guests at the China State Dinner held at the White House to opt for this off-the-shoulder number by Vera Wang. Not only the peek-a-boo cleavage but also the remarkable mermaid hem was a welcomed change from the more conventional designs the First Lady has been seen in.

    Michelle Obamas Vera Wang Dress

    Carolina Herrera

    No other piece could have been better than the ice blue cowl length creation by Carolina Herrera that fell at the knee of Mrs. Obama, she wore to greet Pope Francis. The subtle accentuation of a matching slim belt was certainly a smart choice.

    Obama In Carolina Herrera

    Monique Lhuillier

    The flotus wowed once again at the 37th Annual Kennedy Center Honors in an embroidered column gown by Monique Lhuillier in the softest shade of blush. She was spectacular in the dress that boasted a sheer tulle skirt with a beaded underlay and sophisticated sweetheart neckline.

    Michelle Obama In Monique Lhuillier

    Tracy Reese

    Celebration of the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King was yet another central event and Michelle Obama picked this flared Tracy Reese frock dotted with scarlet flower detailing all over. Designer Tracy Reese rightfully claims to have done a great job dressing up the First Lady.

    Michelle Obama In Tracy Reese

    She has been spotted wearing the choicest of outfits in the past terms, and we are all a fan of her style. Lets all agree, we are going to miss this wonderful lady and her immaculate poise and elegance.

    “Over the last few months of my YouTube channel being consistently active, I’ve gotten a lot of requests around not just makeup related topics, as you can imagine, but also fashion.
