Is there really a point to the Charlotte Olympia Pandora Clutch (GBP395)? While it is one thing to carry a bag that’s partly translucent, why would anyone want their personal belongings to be in full view to everyone else in a transparent clutch?
That’s my first query. Thing is, this particular clutch also comes with a trio of interchangeable pouches (one in gold leather, another in leopard print canvas and a third in black crepe). Which leads me to my second query. Why make (and sell) a transparent clutch, and then make another 3 pouches for you to put your belongings in?
It’s just too much effort for something that’s supposed to be really simple and uncomplicated. And if I really want to carry a transparent plastic box around, I’ll just get one of those acrylic boxes from Muji.

I personally love the clear lucite box clutch look. It will go with everything and it looks extremely modern. Besides, so much of what women buy is geared towards cute packaging! Now they can show it off.
I don’t see the point. Don’t like it one bit.
I think the point was to make you think that you have 3 clutches with the pouches. So value for money?
Perhaps. But at the end of the day, it is a plastic box and 3 pouches for almost SGD800. Is it even worth it? Or maybe I’m just missing the point completely.
lazy design that’s trying to pass off as forward. (FB)
Actually, this is simply gorgeous! The minimalistic look of it will go with any dress. However, the person carrying it should not ‘giap’ it under her armpit like some housewife at the market.
No good for my new Wonderwoman Mac make-up would totally give the game away!
what a wonderful way to show off my matching LV small accessories… wallet, card case etc. I’ve always wanted a transparent chanel bag so this could be a good alternative.
LOL!
I think it is beautiful.
Oh I just bought it and I love it! It’s so sculptural and I love the bags because it can go with every dress I own.
My husband however pretty much did the same rant as you did!
There isn’t one? With that money I’d rather get an Eva, thanks. (FB)
hahah! very much agreed! (FB)
