You may have noticed the sexy clutch that Carine Roitfeld holds over one eye on her cover for the Fall 2011 issue of i-D Magazine, fondly known as the "Carine" bag. This beauty is designed by Carine and Tom Ford, one of fashion's favorite duos, for Monsieur Ford's Fall/Winter line. The flap bag features gold metal hardware including a chain handle covered partially in hand-stitched leather while the shackle closure references the fetish chic for which the pair is famous. Available in alligator, goat skin, nappa leather, patent, python, or suede, the "Carine" is sure to please season after season. Special thanks to Beth Terry for calling this collaboration to my attention.
