"Ouch! My Bag Is Killing Me" was the title of a recent article in The New York Times about how women are injuring their shoulders and backs because they insist on hauling around heavy, oversized handbags. The fashion gods must have heard their complaints, because the clutch purse is making a comeback, and not just for eveningwear. The clutch may not have the same storage capacity as a designer leather Hefty bag, but it will make trips to the deli a teensy bit easier. Marc by Marc Jacobs Totally Turnlock flap clutch shown here. More handbags.
