Bring some glamour into your life for less with this black patent clutch bag by Julien McDonald. The classic styling makes it perfect for all sorts of occasions, and the frilled edge makes it just that little bit more special. Overall, the looks is a little bit Lulu Guinness or LK Bennett - but you'll get it here for a fraction of the cost.
Julien McDonald's Star range is, admittedly, not my favourite budget diffusion line, as the designs can sometimes get a bit fussy, which is notoriously difficult to get right on such a tight budget. But I like the simplicity and straightforward design here.
