It took Dareen Hakim accumulating about 75 handbags to realize that maybe she could create what she was seeking in a bag herself. The businesswoman set out to do just that, with an eponymous line of clutches that draw compliments as they complement any outfit.

“The beauty of a perfect clutch is that it’s a statement piece in itself, adding impact without taking away from the rest of the outfit,” Hakim says.

The classic bag shapes feature calligraphic metal closures that elevate them into pieces of functional jewelry. That’s the point: “A clutch is an accessory to your outfit, much like jewelry,” Hakim says.

“While day bags have to be practical, the beauty of a perfect clutch is that it’s a statement piece in itself, adding impact without taking away from the rest of the outfit.”

“A woman can’t ever have enough!”
