Illustrated Book Clutches Offer a Stylish Way to Celebrate Your Favorite Novel

Elena Myloslavskaya of BAGatelle Studio has the perfect thing for voracious readers who also fancy themselves fashionistas. Her collection of book clutches resemble beloved novels but have the functionality of a cross-body purse. When held in your hands, the pieces look just like a book with iconic imagery and prize-winning titles. It’s hard to tell that behind the cover is room for your phone, keys, and wallet.

Myloslavskaya uses durable vegan (faux) leather to produce her water-resistant bags. Each is fully lined with a small pouch pocket as well as magnetic snaps and zipper closures. While the book clutches default to removable, 48-inch-long shoulder straps, you can opt for a smaller “loop” handle that allows you to wear the bag in your hand.

The entire library is available in the BAGatelle Studio Etsy shop.
