Set aside your shoulder bag, toss away your tote and store away your cross-body, Valentino sparks the new-season statement track, courtesy of its newest It bag: The wristlet clutch. Precisely made and studded by hand, Valentino’s ‘Rockstud’ clutch was all the rave during fashion month. Seen everywhere from the runways and the streets, the clutch hints at high-drama, while the easy-to-hold band plays into Fall’s laid-back luxury mood (not to mention the bag can double as a cocktail ring and bag in one). With its distinguishing fashion—forward look, the wristlet is the go-to accessory for anyone seeking trend-transcending accessory essentials. This utilitarian-inspired accessory possesses an undeniable elegance for FW16, plus did we mention holding the bag is way more comfortable than grasping a clutch?

We did some digging and curated an edit of wristlets—with an option for every budget from $18 to over $1500.
