… always get shopped to completion – a good thing for my bank account, I can assure you). The Alexander McQueen Coral Mini Folk Tote is what I like to squeal is “adorable!” A tote sized just right – large enough to hold my essentials but no so enormous that I overpack and end up lugging it around like a boulder – with visible topstitching, lean tassels, and spacious pockets, it’s perfect for my daily excursions. To make the purchase even more worth my while, the McQueen team …

Simplicity is not a trait often evoked in the same breath as Alexander McQueen, but a designer sometimes reveals true genius in unexpected ways. This is especially true of the McQueen label, which lives on in a spirit that no doubt would have pleased the man himself. The Folk Tote is a particularly spectacular addition to the ever-burgeoning lineup of skull-clasped clutches and the like, thanks to a classic silhouette and an earthy hue that is right in …

… is more versatile, but black totes aren’t the most exciting of bags. Until now. Enter the Alexander McQueen whipstitched shopper.

I can’t even recall the last time black looked so enticing! Sumptuous selleria leather has been capped off with shimmering gold hardware, for a flawless contrast.

Well, aside from the many varieties of Skull Clutches, of course. What I have always liked about the Demanta Clutch is the folded corner detail. It sort of reminds me of an unfinished origami project (in a good way). If you’re not into clutches though, not to worry! That’s right, everything …

If ever there was a bag to swoon over and get all “OMG” about, it’s the Alexander McQueen Embroidered Knuckle Duster Clutch. Seriously. It manages to outdo some of the most brazen McQueen clutches in existence, which is no small feat. While the white embroidery is certainly striking, it’s not the most salient detail. That’s reserved for the mesmerizing clasp, which is guarded by a row of skulls that have been skewered by a sword. The crystal eyes are almost funny …

There is one bag that we are guaranteed to see season after season from the house of Alexander McQueen, and that’s the iconic staple clutch. Anytime there’s a new Alexander McQueen Skull Box Clutch I have to stop what I’m doing to go check it out.

After all, it’s not every day you spot a bag half dipped in ivory shells, half decorated with a combo of black beads and studs, and topped with a menacing starfish-skull. It’s madness, right? Yet unlike a majority of equally mad McQueen box clutches, this one isn’t even a little bit …
