Everyone loves a zipped pouch. Especially one that comes with an extra chain strap to convert it into a mini bag in double quick time. Compact yet functional all at once, here are four fabric or coated canvas options from your favourite brands. Extra plus points? They are all relatively low maintenance and nothing costs more than two grand.

01 – Celine Clutch With Chain, SGD1400
Celine’s offering comes in the unmistakable Triomphe Canvas with tan leather trimmings. Measuring 16 cm by 11 cm, the handy clutch opens to a roomy compartment for all your essentials. The coated finish is also resistant to scratches and the occasional splash, making it a solid option for daily use. CELINE

02 – Fendi Baguette Pouch, SGD1850
Not only is Fendi’s the newest of the lot, but it’s also one of the more functional designs. Its 20 cm by 13 cm frame packs three interior card slots that erases the need for an extra wallet. Complete with the gold-tone pull tab that typically acts as a clasp on the Baguette range of bags, this stylish number in brown FF jacquard fabric is as classic as it gets. FENDI

03 – Gucci Wrist Wallet, SGD1400
Fans of the beige/ebony GG Supreme Canvas will definitely love this flat pouch from Gucci. Unzip the 20 cm by 13.5 cm accessory to find four card slots inside. Besides a slinky chain that wraps perfectly around the wrist, a resin strawberry detailing at the side also adds an extra touch of playful fun. GUCCI

04 – Louis Vuitton Mini Pochette Accessoires, SGD1190
Not just the MPA, but one that now comes with an extra gold-tone sling. It’s significantly longer, with a 45.7 cm drop length for slinging it across the body or over the shoulder. Measuring 15.5 cm by 10.5 cm, this MPA with a long chain is big enough for a cardholder and beauty essentials. In other words, the perfect grab-and-go for weekends. LOUIS VUITTON
