You can always count on Charlotte Olympia clutches and other accessories to be a little on the quirky side. With the Charlotte Olympia Fall collection sourcing from iconic pin-up girl Betty Page as inspiration, this nighttime accessory is sensual and a little voyeuristic, since the curvy, caged design gives you a peek at the goods inside.
The Tight Laced Ribbon-Embellished Gold-Tone Clutch has space enough to hold a credit card, a tube of lipstick and a thin compact case. Although the lace-up ribbon detailing is purely decorative, the gold-colored brass clutch opens from the top with a small clasp closure. The tiny clutch is barely over seven inches tall, but it retails for nearly $2,500.
