If you buy one new bag this season, make it a clutch. Normally it can only enjoy a life after 6pm, when a lipstick and bank card is all you need. Now it’s been given extra inches so can cross over nicely into the day. You can carry all your essentials - phone, wallet, unnecessary amounts of make up, pens that don’t work - without it looking bulky or as if it’s going to snap your wrist in half.

Which one do you choose, yellow and black patent bag by Topshop, grey with mirrored leather detail by Anya Hindmarch, or black with gold plating by Lara Bohnic?
