There’s nothing quite as satisfying as getting more than you bargained for. The Roberto Cavalli Gold Box Clutch offers two looks in one. The gold clutch alone is a striking (if somewhat simple) piece, and it’s sure to play well against the fabulous little black dress you save for special occasions – in fact, it’s just made for those kinds of moments. Slip the removable satin turquoise overlay over the gold, though, and you’ve got yourself a fresh new look, one that will work perfectly for outdoor soirees during the summer or any moment that requires a pop of color. Available for $3245 at Net-a-Porter.

Disarmingly cute but alarmingly small at the same time, this Roberto Cavalli Satin Box Clutch is a real treat if you’re in the market for something dainty, dressy and bright. It’s the perfect antidote to winter darks and neutrals, something to lighten the mood no matter what time of year it is. It’s gorgeous against a contrasting dress and stands out for miles. At just seven inches wide by a mere three inches high, though, it doesn’t prove very useful. For $3245, I do expect more. Available at Net-a-Porter.

A perfect example of unconventional beauty, this Roberto Cavalli Serpent Bracelet Clutch follows a design steeped in tradition. This isn’t the first bracelet/clutch that Cavalli has fashioned, and it probably won’t be the last. That’s because, simply put, it works. A low-key, gleaming clutch in a fabulous color is the perfect complement to an elegant bracelet (detachable, of course). You can’t go wrong with such a timeless, fun piece. Available for $910 at Net-a-Porter.

Nothing screams trendy quite like this luxurious Roberto Cavalli Jeweled Bow Clutch. In a rich shade of purple, it gleams with a little help from the affixed gold-tone bow. Sprinkled with a generous helping of citrine and amethyst colored stones, the bow takes center stage on this very regal accessory. It’s only fitting that the interior is lined with a sexy leopard print. This little purse is an ideal alternative to the holiday season’s typical reds and burgundies. Try it against a gold dress for a gorgeous contrast. Available for $1340 at Net-a-Porter.

The Olympics haven’t even started yet, but don’t let that stop you from going for the gold. And while the metallic trend may not land your mug on a Wheaties box, looking like a 24k goddess has its own rewards. The soft gold hue of Laila Azhar’s One-Shoulder Drape Dress dazzles, while the draped, ’70s-inspired style has “Dancing Queen” written all over it. Complement the dress with some Fort Knox-worthy arm candy in the form of Roberto Cavalli’s Gold Bracelet Pochette, a sleek, brushed gold clutch accented with a sexy python bracelet detail. Eat your heart out, Cleopatra.

Oh. My. God. Ok…you know when a bag is so ugly it becomes beautiful? That’s how I would best describe this floral arrangement courtesy of Roberto Cavalli. My best friend has long been obsessed with a purple Cavalli she owns, while I’ve remained nonchalant about his accessories… until now.

But this bouquet inspires a degree of lust in me that’s usually reserved for Christian Louboutin’s very prive shoes. The combination of grays, blues and purples make this floral bracelet bag a year-round option. Plus the bracelet’s detachable! The use of purples instead of pink keep this tote from being obnoxiously girly, while the wristlet means you’ll be able to actually USE it—and not worry about getting your dirty hands on the beautiful satin while you balance a cocktail in one hand and a canapé in another.

Roberto Cavalli Floral Bracelet Bag is available for 570 pounds at www.net-a-porter.com.
