Eiffel Tower Clutch by Timmy Woods - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

If you're a lover of French fashion, or even historically renown architecture, you can now wear a piece of the culture's heart in the palm of your hand. The new limited edition Eiffel Tower Clutch by Timmy Woods looks just like a mini version of the world famous tower which sits in the heart of the fashion world, Paris, France. I couldn't believe my eyes when when I came across this clutch. I mean, I'm really not even sure which words I'd use to describe how this looks on someone. I'm sort of stuck between uinique-looking or just plain tacky...

Personally, I wouldn't wear this limited edition piece. Though I do admire Woods' artistic creation and how he incorporated architecture with fashion. I think this miniaturized take on Paris' landmark clearly and cleverly ties into fashion since the city and it's designers are a major part of the industry. And as for the clutch itself, it is made of light weight acacia wood and even comes with a silky bengaline strap so you can carry the mini-Eiffel over your shoulder. And despite it's inconsistent shape (for a clutch, that is), it has enough room to hold credit cards, money, lipstick and even features an interior pocket for your cell. But overall, I think this limited edition piece is fit for a spot on a shelf or in a case with all of the other collector's pieces.

See the new Eiffel Tower Clutch by Timmy Woods for $415 over at Nordstrom

I think this is pretty cool, but not for me.

I totally admire anyone who could pull it off.

I like it, though I wouldn't spend that much for it. Not your everyday bag. LOL!

Looks like something that belongs on a coffee table...kind of weird for a handbag...

Unique though.

I think it's actually cheaper at Pat Field's website?
I love it!

ETA: Nevermind. I thought it was $300, it's actually $450 there too.

Yes, only Carrie Bradshaw can pull it off.I do love the bag, and if I had lived in NYC I would surely own this piece.
