Best Bet: 3 Stud Bay Bag

Though many would agree that clutches are the It bag of the moment, there’s still the need for something sensible. Unlike boxier, more structured clutches, this 3 Stud Bay Bag from San Francisco–based label Bryna Nicole looks like it can comfortably hold the day’s basic necessities of cash, lip gloss, and cell phone. The rich army-green color and subtle detailing have a cool, earthy appeal that would be appropriate for day or evening. But the real practicality comes with the detachable strap, should you get tired of carrying it around.
