I am all about the Doheny clutch from Oscar lately.  My white one in crackled patent leather is lightweight and easy to use- especially the magnetic flap which allows me to get in and out of my bag effortlessly, I find myself constantly grabbing it before I head out for lunch or dinner!  It’s so liberating to have a big ol’ clutch to hold my PDA cell, camera (you never know when I need a shot for Bag Snob), wallet, make up bag, etc etc.  I just love the silhouette of an oversized clutch with a suit or jeans in the day or with a cocktail dress in the evening, it’s an unexpected proportion that looks modern and stylish.  You have no idea how often I am stopped by passing strangers who ask “who made that clutch!?!??”  The Doheny is free of logo but heavy on style, in other words, simply chic!  I was in the Oscar boutique the other day (my new home away from home- there are eight boutiques in the US, you must go to one near you.  Just hang out like I do and play with all the clothes, bags, shoes, jewels and home accessories- I promise you will become addicted!) and saw the latest incarnations of the Doheny- named after a street in LA when the Melrose boutique opened.  For Summer, the Doheny gets punched up in a juicy orange ostrich ($3,495) and a stucco crackled patent leather ($995), both are great colors to add to your bag wardrobe.  I am partial to the nude “stucco” shade, it’s the perfect complement to the bright blue Oscar bubble dress I am currently obsessed with.  Spring ready to wear is all about bold fun color and you’ll need a neutral to set it all off!  Call Mindy at 214-346-0400 to order.  More photos after the jump!Left: Stucco patent leather $995 Right: Oscar Bubble Dress $2,895Orange ostrich $3,495  14.5″x7″We also love the Doheny shoulder bag in stucco crackled patent leather ($1,795), it has the same style as the clutch but with straps that have just a small touch of modern chain detail. 13″x7″
