Clutch bag yes or clutch bag no? This is every bride’s big dilemma.
When it comes to the wedding day, every detail counts. One of the most important accessories for a bride is the clutch bag. Not only does it add a touch of elegance to the wedding look, but it is also essential to hold everything you might need during the day. In this article, we will discover how to choose the perfect clutch bag, what to put inside it and how to match it with shoes for a flawless wedding. Francesco Italy, Albano, Kharisma and many other footwear and accessories brands will help us discover the bridal clutch bag trend and how to live it to the full.
How to Choose the Perfect Bridal Clutch Bag
1. Style and Design
- Classic and Elegant: A silk, satin or lace clutch bag is perfect for a traditional wedding.
- Modern and Chic: For brides who prefer a contemporary look, opt for a clutch bag with clean lines, perhaps in silver or gold rhinestones.
- Boho and Romantic: A clutch bag with floral embroidery or crocheted fabric is beautifully suited to a boho-style wedding
- Colour
- White is the classic choice, but ivory, champagne or soft pastels can add a unique touch and harmonise with the wedding colour palette.
- Don’t limit yourself, however, in the brightness of your clutch bag. A rhinestone or swarovski covered accessory can give your bridal look a truly chic touch.
- Dimensions
The clutch must be roomy enough to hold the essentials without being bulky. A compact size is ideal to maintain practicality and elegance.
What to Put in the Bride’s Clutch Bag
Here is a list of essentials to have in your clutch bag on your wedding day:
- Lipstick and Powder: for quick touch-ups and to maintain a fresh look throughout the day.
- Absorbent Wipes and Tissues: to wipe away tears of joy or dab sweat.
- Compact Mirror: to check your make-up at any time.
- Band-Aids and Hairpins: for emergencies such as blisters caused by new shoes or misplaced hair.
- Mini Perfume Bottle: for refreshing fragrance throughout the day.
- Mini Sewing Kit: for minor emergencies on clothes or accessories.
Matching the Clutch Bag with the Shoes
A crucial aspect is matching the clutch bag with the bride’s sandals. Here are some tips for perfect coordination:
- Material
If the shoes are made of satin or silk, choose a clutch bag of the same material for a harmonious look.
- Details
Details such as pearls, crystals or lace on the shoes should also be reflected on the clutch bag.
- Colour
Colour matching is crucial. White shoes go well with a white or ivory clutch bag, while coloured shoes can be combined with clutch bags with details or shades of the same colour.
- Comfort and Practicality
Also consider practicality. If you wear high-heeled shoes and know you might need a comfortable change, make sure the clutch bag can also hold a pair of foldable ballet flats.
