Trendy vs Spendy: Celine-Inspired, Brown-Bag Clutch

Let’s discuss these three renditions of the nude leather fold over clutch. One is affordable, while others will empty out your bank account. Fashionista.com poses a great point about the three options stating,“what does this mean about fashion when you can buy virtually the same bag at Céline, See by Chloé, and Zara in the same season–for completely different price points.“

In an era of diffusion lines and knockoff everything, it’s pretty hard to tell the difference between the trendy and spendy bags in this competition. The neutral brown color will compliment any spring pastel you’re thinking about whipping out, but will the bag’s price tag? The Celine bag will run you $2,100,  the See by Chloe rendition is $413, and the Zara version is only $35.90.

Fashionistas- put on your thinking caps. Which bag would you choose in this battle of the clutch? I’m 100% team Zara and here are five reasons why.

1. It’s large enough to use as an everyday bag without the bulk.

2. It comes in three different colors, but lets’ be honest – the brown will go with everything, especially springtime pastels.

5. It’s trendy….not spendy. $35.90…who can beat that! $2000 is better spent towards college loans, a house, or um, anything else.
