Three Chic Evening Bags Perfect for Holiday Parties

When it comes to sophisticated chic, there are few designer brands as closely associated with classy French style as Yves Saint Laurent. If you are looking for the perfect bag to wear with your most glamorous evening outfits this holiday season, then checking out some of the iconic evening bags in the current Saint Laurent range is certain to help you find just what you are looking for. From interesting, structured box bags through to elegant, dainty clutches, you can certainly find something that will give just the right finish to your party outfits while also making for a convenient place to keep your evening essentials!

Here we look at three current YSL bags that are all excellent evening bag choices for Christmas and New Year 2019.

The Pyramid Box Bag

If you like bags that have an artistic, unusual look, while still having the subtle elegance associated with iconic French fashion, then this bag is sure to tick all the right boxes. It's triangular, structured design makes it a nice geometric piece that can contrast beautifully with softer shapes, such as floaty tulle skirts or silk evening dresses that accentuate your curves. Wear this bag with less structured, stark dresses to get the best effect. The single strap placed at the top makes for a nice touch, and the large golden YSL logo gives the bag its high fashion branding without being gaudy or ostentatious. You can find the Pyramid bag in the latest collection of Saint Laurent bags for women, which are all available from excellent luxury fashion retailer SSENSE who are well worth checking out if you're preparing for the winter party season!

Uptown Envelope Clutch Bag

The Uptown model of bag by YSL is a simple, flat envelope style clutch bag that is available in a variety of colors and finishes, including black crocodile. This is a classic bag that will never go out of fashion and will complement just about any evening look, whether you are going for vintage chic, black-tie glamor, or a glitzy, fun party dress. One of the most interesting versions of this bag is the black Python option, which has a beautiful texture that makes for a stylish alternative to leather finishes.

Velvet Cassandra Bag

The Cassandra bag is one of the staple classic YSL bag shapes, and it looks great in all different sizes and colors. However, for a party look that is just perfect for the holiday season, choose the black velvet Cassandra bag, which has an opulent texture as well as chic gold details, and is a gorgeous accompaniment to a little black dress. This bag is also a good choice if you don't like clutch bags to hold, as it has a chain shoulder strap as part of its design.

These three bags are all stunning, and if you invest in one of them, it is bound to become a favorite in your evening wear collection for many holiday seasons to come!
