Georgina Skalidi Clutch Bags

 Recently i read about Georgina Skalidi and her clutches. She is a Greek, bag designer from Chania, Crete. I like them because they are unusual and the geometric patterns are something that i haven't seen before. The new collection for Fall 2011 is released and Mary Sinatsaki is the model...Clutches' prices are between 100-150 euros. Visit her site to order products.

I admire people with fantasy, creativity and passion for whatever they do and Georgina is one of them...Well done!!!

Yesterday i was hanging with my girlfriends in a coffee shop. The discussion we were having was various (girls talk) and we ended up in bags. As a bagoholic i should know all the types of bags but when my friend ask me the difference between clutch and pochette, i wasn't sure about my answer...
